Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Thermal Insulation Market

Before the COVID-19 pandemic, the thermal insulation market growth was primarily driven by the rising demand for buildings and construction activities. However, the market faced hurdles during the first quarter of 2020 due to business shutdown, raw material, and labor shortages, and decline in construction and transportation activities. The COVID-19 pandemic led to economic recession in the initial months of 2020, which created financial difficulties for low-income and mid-income consumers.

Moreover, due to restrictions, shutdown of many construction companies and manufacturing affected the growth of thermal insulation market. Moreover, during the pandemic, shortage of labor was a major concern for the thermal insulation industry. This led to shift towards mechanization, automation, and off-site fabrication in the thermal insulation industry.
