Increasing concerns pertaining to energy conservation in buildings coupled with rise in electricity costs have necessitated the demand for insulation materials across the residential, commercial and industrial buildings. Growing popularity of advanced construction materials among builders and contractors to ensure efficient energy consumption and meet the conservation norms will support the industry growth. Surge in structural reform projects across the developed regions including North America and Europe will positively influence the material penetration over the forecast timeframe.
 

Growth in the construction industry coupled with rising urbanization is among the key factors escalating the building thermal insulation industry size. Shifting trends towards upgrading the existing padding system sufficing the construction standards will support the industry growth. Customers are focusing on reducing the energy consumption bills with retrofitting the material in walls and attics. Increasing public-private partnership for new residential construction coupled with strict codes implemented by the government for reducing the industrial energy consumption will further support the industry growth.
 

Shifting focus towards accomplishing core competencies in a wide range of materials including EPS and XPS has urged the manufacturers to enhance materialization and development of optimum distribution channel for increasing their market share. For instance, in May 2015, Knauf Insulation announced to enhance its distribution channel by entering into a distribution agreement with Canada based material distributors CanWel Building Materials for the expansion of its sales and distribution network across the country.
 

Technological advancements such as excellent soundproof and enhanced thermal properties along with easy installation methods are propelling the material demand. Growing energy efficient green building construction to enhance work materiality in the offices, minimize carbon footprint and improvement in thermal comfort, etc. are few factors contributing to the industry expansion. Adoption of zero energy buildings and sustainable construction along with proliferating usage of recyclable padding material are among the key factors positively influencing the material penetration.
 

Favorable government policies and standards for improving the energy efficiency in the structures to prevent the loss of natural resources will proliferate the industry landscape. For instance, in December 2017, Ontario green home renovation program announced to offer the homeowners with thousands of dollars in rebates on completion of energy efficient renovations for enabling the house owners to hire contractors for obtaining rebates. However, lack of awareness pertaining to the advantages coupled with fluctuation in the raw material prices may hamper the building thermal insulation market size.
