The glass fiber reinforced concrete market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• In recent times, the market size for glass fiber reinforced concrete has experienced substantial growth. The market is expected to soar from $3.92 billion in 2024 to $4.42 billion in 2025, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.7%.
The observed expansion during the historical period can be credited to a surge in restoration and renovation projects, escalated demand from the construction sector, increasing interest from the residential arena, and growing needs from the commercial sector, alongside the rise of urbanization.
The glass fiber reinforced concrete market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• In the forthcoming years, the market size for glass fiber reinforced concrete is projected to expand rapidly. By 2029, it is expected to reach $7.65 billion, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.7%.
This growth in the predicted period is largely due to the rising preference for sustainable construction, expansion in commercial construction, investments in infrastructure, the invention of ultra-high-performance GFRC, and the increased demand for lightweight and durable construction materials. Trends to look out for in the projected period include 3D printing technology, customization/personalization, thin and lightweight panels, advancements in manufacturing techniques, and the incorporation of fiber optics and lighting.
The growth of the glass fiber-reinforced concrete market is increasingly influenced by the escalating focus on green buildings. Green buildings denote the architecture, creation, and functionality of structures that put a high priority on energy conservation, resource saving, sustainability, and the preservation of the environment. Glass fiber-reinforced concrete is widely used in these structures, contributing crucially to ecological construction. For instance, the World Green Building Council, a non-profit organization based in the U.S and connected globally to national Green Building Councils, forecasted that by 2030, all new constructions will embody at least 40% less carbon than the existing ones, alongside substantial initial carbon reductions, and all new buildings will have a net zero carbon operation. Consequently, the strong focus on green buildings will inevitably result in a surge in demand for green fiber-reinforced concrete, which is anticipated to boost the expansion of the glass fiber-reinforced concrete market in the coming years.
