Facade Systems Market Dynamics

Growing Emphasis On Energy-Efficient Solutions

With a rising focus on sustainability and energy conservation, there is a growing demand for facade systems that contribute to improved energy efficiency. Facade solutions that offer effective insulation, solar shading and integration with renewable energy systems are in high order, driven by stricter building codes and environmental regulations.

Furthermore, the increasing awareness of environmental sustainability and the need to reduce energy consumption in buildings has led to a strong demand for facade systems that enhance energy efficiency. Therefore to support the demand for energy-efficient systems, companies are also investing in R&D to boost the market.

For instance, on 3 January 2022, A facade module that integrates the technical building equipment and feeds it renewable energy to heat, cool and ventilate the adjacent rooms is being developed by researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Building Physics IBP and the Fraunhofer Institute for Energy Economics and Energy System Technology IEE. It is made feasible by a distributed ventilation unit with heat recovery, a micro heat pump for heating and cooling and a PV system integrated into the modular facade for energy supply.

High Cost of Components

Facade system costs are typically estimated on a per-square-foot or per-square-meter basis. On average, the price of a facade system can range from US$80 to US$500 per square foot (US$860 to US$5,380 per square meter). The facade systems cost can vary based on complex design, engineering and installation processes, which contribute to their higher price than traditional building facades.

Furthermore, facade systems often incorporate advanced materials such as high-performance glass, aluminum alloys, composite panels and specialized insulation materials. These materials are specifically chosen for their durability, energy efficiency and aesthetic appeal. However, these high-quality materials come at a higher price point, increasing the overall cost of the facade system.

Facade Systems Market Segment Analysis

The Global Facade Systems Market is segmented based on material, type, end-user and region.

Rising Demand For Lightweight, Excellent Insulation, Weather Resistance and Decorative Finish Building Solutions 

Exterior insulation and finish system (EIFS) hold 1/3rd share of the global facade systems market in 2022 due to their lightweight, multi-layered approach that provides insulation, weather resistance and decorative finishes to the exterior walls of buildings. EIFS offers excellent thermal insulation properties, contributing to improved building energy efficiency. 

The system's insulation layer helps reduce heat transfer, reducing heating and cooling costs. As energy efficiency becomes a growing concern worldwide, the demand for EIFS has risen due to its potential for enhancing building performance and sustainability. Global players are also investing in boosting the segmental growth of the market. 

For instance, on 4 April 2022, The EIFS Industry Members Association (EIMA) announced the 2021 EIFS Project Hero Awards winners. The industry program recognizes exceptional construction projects covered in exterior insulating and finish systems (EIFS), a method for improving the energy efficiency of building envelopes. At a ceremony held on March 23 as part of the 2022 EIMA Annual Meeting in Amelia Island, Florida, awards were presented.

COVID-19 Impact on Facade Systems Market 

COVID Impact

The global facade system market, like many other industries, has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic due to several factors. The pandemic disrupted global supply chains, causing delays in the procurement of raw materials and components required for facade systems. Restrictions on international trade, factory closures and transportation disruptions led to supply chain bottlenecks and increased costs for manufacturers. 

Furthermore, many construction projects were delayed or canceled due to the economic uncertainty caused by the pandemic. Lockdown measures, labor shortages and financial constraints led to a slowdown in construction activities, affecting the demand for facade systems.

Russia-Ukraine War Impact 

The war caused significant disruptions in the construction industry of Ukraine and Russia. Infrastructure projects got delayed or put on hold, leading to a decline in the demand for facade systems in these countries. Furthermore, geopolitical tensions and armed conflicts tend to create an atmosphere of uncertainty and risk aversion among investors. It leads to a decrease in construction investments, including the installation of facade systems, not only in Ukraine and Russia but also in neighboring regions.
