Global Insulation

Report Overview

This report forecasts to 2026 global demand for insulation by material, market, and major world region in nominal US dollars at the manufacturer level. Material segments include: foamed plastic; fiberglass; mineral wool; and other materials such as cellulose, radiant materials, and reflective materials. Reported markets encompass: residential buildings; nonresidential buildings; industrial and plant equipment; HVAC and air distribution; transportation equipment; appliances; and other markets such as nonbuilding construction, furniture, and off-road equipment. Major world regions include North America, Western Europe, Asia/Pacific, and all other regions.

To illustrate historical trends, world, material, market, and regional demand (including material and market segments) are provided for 2011, 2016, and 2021. Finally, global production is segmented by major world region and provided for 2011, 2016, 2021, and 2026.

Granulated mineral wool used in ceiling tiles is not included in the scope of this report. Both thermal and acoustic insulation are included in the scope of this report.

For any given historical year, US dollar amounts are obtained from values expressed in applicable local currency. These local currency values are converted to US dollars at the average annual exchange rate for that year. For forecast years, the US dollar amounts assume the same annual exchange rate as that prevailing in 2021.

Other various topics, including profiles of pertinent leading companies, are covered in this report. A full outline of report items by page is available in the Table of Contents.
