The architectural glass market is expected to exceed 90 billion USD in 2031.

The global COVID-19 pandemic has upended day-to-day operations across multiple industries, limiting the availability of raw materials and hindering production and growth.

According to a research report, the architectural glass market size will be USD 46 billion in 2021 and will reach USD 90 billion in 2031, with a CAGR of 7% from 2021-to 2031.

How does the robust structural performance of architectural glass drive demand?
