Cladding is any particular material used to give
a final finish to the building exteriors. The cladding system may or may not be
waterproof, but it helps protect the building from wind, rain, dust, snow, and
other external factors. It can be also used for a decorative purpose to make
buildings visually appealing. They are also called curtain walls, building
envelopes, or facade systems. Cladding systems are usually made up of durable
and non-corrosive materials such as vinyl (plastic), bricks, precast concrete,
tiles, glass, timber, metals, weatherboards, and stones. However, cladding materials
have their advantages and properties. For instance, cladding systems can be
combined with cavity walls for better thermal and noise insulation.
Moreover, the cladding systems are available in
various styles, textures, finishes, colors, and varying strengths that make
them compatible to withstand heavy winds and forces. With increasing
construction activities worldwide, the need for appealing and energy-efficient
structures has paved the way for the market. Moreover, the high-performance
characteristics of the cladding system are also expected to drive the growth of
the cladding systems
market. For instance,
in April 2019, Cembrit announced the launch of a new fiber cement cladding
board ‘Patina Rough’, offering a new range of premium cladding for a wide
variety of external applications.
High cost of installation and maintenance, as
well as a shortage of raw material, is expected to hamper the cladding systems market
growth. However, the growing need for better insulation and energy-efficient
buildings increases the demand for better cladding options and innovations,
creating significant growth opportunities for the market. Moreover, the
increasing use of recycled plastic & metal and eco-friendly materials is
making cladding systems more popular and reducing costs for manufacturing
cladding, which is expected to propel the growth of the cladding systems
market.
In terms of geography, the cladding systems
market is divided into six regions, such as North America, Europe, Asia
Pacific, South America, the Middle East, and Africa. North America and the Asia
Pacific are the largest markets for cladding systems due to the rapid growth of
the construction industry in these regions. Moreover, key players active in the
market are focused on launching new and innovative cladding in the market. For
instance, in 2019, Arcitell, in partnership with Hexion, launched a lightweight
fiber-reinforced polymer panel, Qora cladding, in the market. While, in 2018,
Ibstock Kevington launched a new lightweight cladding system, MechSlip, that
offers the aesthetic appeal of real brick.
