The SAM float glass market is expected to grow from US$ 3,873.83 million in 2021 to US$ 5,436.69 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.0% from 2021 to 2028.
Float glass is manufactured through a melting process, where recycled glass, lime, silica sand, potash, and soda are melted in a furnace and floated onto a bed of molten tin. Float glass is being increasingly used in the building & construction industry, which includes the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. Float glass has a high degree of light transmission, the ability to produce a range of colors and opacities, and good chemical inertness, which increased its demand from the construction industry. The float glass is used for windows and doors in the residential sector, serving both aesthetic and functional applications. It is also being increasingly utilized in interior design and modern architecture. In the commercial sector, float glass is in demand as it provides an attractive and easy-to-maintain exterior surface. Float glass offers light and heat transmittance, influencing the amount of heating and cooling required inside a building according to different seasons and climates. The float glass is also being used as display windows in the retail outlets due to its transparent nature, hardness, and ease of cleaning. Due to the rise in environmental concerns, there has been an increased demand for float glass in the construction industry as it helps in achieving Leadership in Energy and Environment Design (LEED) certification for residential and commercial constructions. The rise in consumer awareness about the safety of buildings and an increased focus on maintaining the government's building codes are expected to increase the demand for float glass further. Thus, the increasing demand for float glass from the building & construction industry will fuel the growth of the SAM float glass market during the forecast period.
In case of COVID-19, SAM is highly affected especially Brazil, followed by Argentina, Peru, Chile, and Ecuador among others. The government of South and Central America has taken an array of actions to protect its citizens and combat the spread of the COVID-19 virus through lockdowns, trade bans, and travel restrictions. This may have a direct impact on the growth of the float glass market due to significant disruptions in terms of sourcing of raw materials from suppliers as well as temporary closures of manufacturing base due to indefinite lockdowns and temporary quarantines. However, the demand for float glass is expected to increase in the region as the economies are recovering and vaccination drives are being adopted.
With the new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the SAM float glass market. The SAM float glass market is expected to grow at a good CAGR during the forecast period.

Nonetheless, our analysis is not restricted to the 10 listed companies, we also analyze other companies present in the market to develop a holistic view and understand the prevailing trends. The “Company Profiles” section in the report covers key facts, business description, products & services, financial information, SWOT analysis, and key developments. The financial information presented is extracted from the annual reports and official documents of the publicly listed companies. Upon collecting the information for the sections of respective companies, we verify them via various primary sources and then compile the data in respective company profiles. The company level information helps us in deriving the base number as well as in forecasting the market size.
- 3.4 Developing Base Number:
Aggregation of sales statistics (2020-2022) and macro-economic factor, and other secondary and primary research insights are utilized to arrive at base number and related market shares for 2022. The data gaps are identified in this step and relevant market data is analyzed, collected from paid primary interviews or databases. On finalizing the base year market size, forecasts are developed on the basis of macro-economic, industry and market growth factors and company level analysis.
- Data Triangulation and Final Review:
The market findings and base year market size calculations are validated from supply as well as demand side. Demand side validations are based on macro-economic factor analysis and benchmarks for respective regions and countries. In case of supply side validations, revenues of major companies are estimated (in case not available) based on industry benchmark, approximate number of employees, product portfolio, and primary interviews revenues are gathered. Further revenue from target product/service segment is assessed to avoid overshooting of market statistics. In case of heavy deviations between supply and demand side values, all thes steps are repeated to achieve synchronization.
We follow an iterative model, wherein we share our research findings with Subject Matter Experts (SME’s) and Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) until consensus view of the market is not formulated – this model negates any drastic deviation in the opinions of experts. Only validated and universally acceptable research findings are quoted in our reports.
We have important check points that we use to validate our research findings – which we call – data triangulation, where we validate the information, we generate from secondary sources with primary interviews and then we re-validate with our internal data bases and Subject matter experts. This comprehensive model enables us to deliver high quality, reliable data in shortest possible time.
