UAE Energy-Efficient Windows Market - Industry Trends & Forecast Report, 2029

The UAE energy-efficient windows market size was estimated to be worth USD 316.11 million in 2022. During the forecast period between 2023 and 2029, the UAE energy-efficient windows market size is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.72% reaching a value of USD 495.04 million by 2029. Major growth factors for the UAE energy-efficient windows market include the growing construction of residential and commercial spaces as a result of population expansion, economic diversification, and infrastructure development, which also increases demand for effective HVAC systems. The market for energy-efficient windows in the UAE is seeing profitable growth as a result of the increasing integration of cutting-edge technologies including AI and IoT into windows.

UAE Energy-Efficient Windows Market – Overview

Energy-efficient windows are engineered to stop warm or cooled air from exiting your house. This prevents the HVAC systems from working harder than necessary. Lower electricity costs and more constant temperatures throughout the year are the advantages. Energy-efficient glass lessens heat loss via windows and results in fewer draughts and cold spots. These windows not only keep the heat inside but also shield the house from outside noise. Condensation buildup on the interior of windows is decreased by the energy-efficient glass.

Growth Drivers

Expanding Investments in Sustainable Infrastructure

The UAE is significantly focusing on building sustainable and resilient infrastructure. According to the official portal of the UAE Government, “The UAE government aims to invest AED 600 billion by 2050 to meet the growing energy demand and ensure a sustainable growth for the country’s economy.” As a result, both residential and non-residential buildings are adopting energy-efficient windows. Many windows that are meant to be energy efficient include a specific coating that minimizes or blocks UV radiation and lowers greenhouse gas emissions from residences and power stations. These factors are also contributing to the growth of the UAE energy-efficient windows market.

Restraints

Lack of Awareness among Consumers

Customers' lack of knowledge about the availability of such technology and its benefits is one of the primary reasons impeding the growth of the market for energy-efficient windows in the UAE. Architects and engineers frequently choose inexpensive window materials, such as plain glass, to keep the cost of the house or commercial building low. The market expansion is being limited by the absence of investment in research into energy-efficient technologies, which discourages potential consumers from acquiring these insulating materials.

Impact of COVID-19 on the UAE Energy-Efficient Windows Market

The COVID-19 pandemic limited the growth of the UAE energy-efficient windows market. The rise in COVID-19 cases prompted the UAE government to impose a lockdown, which resulted in the immediate suspension of construction activities in the country. Renovation activity dropped dramatically as a result of consumers' decreased purchasing power. The demand for energy-efficient windows dramatically decreased by these factors. The government's decision to shift its investment focus from infrastructure to the healthcare sector also had a negative influence on the market. However, the market is anticipated to gain traction during the forecast period as construction activities resume.

Segmental Coverage

UAE Energy-Efficient Windows Market – By Component

Based on component, the UAE energy-efficient windows market is segmented into glass, frame, and hardware. The frames segment holds the highest share in the UAE energy-efficient windows market. Vinyl or fiberglass window frame materials are the most commonly demanded materials in the market. Vinyl window frames are made of a durable, long-lasting material that requires very little care, is energy-efficient, and provides excellent insulation. They act as the modern equivalent of wood or metal frames.

UAE Energy-Efficient Windows Market – By Glazing

Based on glazing, the UAE energy-efficient windows market is segmented into single-glazing, double-glazing, and triple glazing. The double-glazing segment accounts for the highest market share. Due to its ability to prevent heat transmission from one side to the other, double glazing is useful in all weather conditions. Hence, it prevents heat from the interior of the structure from leaving in the winter and restricts the amount of heat energy that enters the building from the outside during hot weather. And since UAE only has two main seasons, i.e., in winter and summer seasons, double-glazing windows are the highest in demand in the country.

UAE Energy-Efficient Windows Market – By Application

Based on application, the UAE energy-efficient windows market is split into new construction and renovation & construction segments. The new construction segment holds a higher market share. The UAE is at the forefront of building development and is making substantial investments in the creation of both commercial and residential areas for the improvement of infrastructure. The emphasis has also switched to green construction expenditures for increased energy efficiency and long-term cost savings, driving the market growth of energy-efficient windows.

UAE Energy-Efficient Windows Market – By End Use

Based on end use, the UAE energy-efficient windows market is segmented into non-residential and residential. The non-residential segment holds a higher share of the UAE energy-efficient windows market. The UAE Government is significantly investing in the construction industry for economic diversification and boosting tourism. Cities like Abu Dhabi and Dubai continue to get more than 16 million tourists each year because of the cities' extravagant monuments and cutting-edge high-rises. As a result, the demand for energy-efficient windows is also gaining traction in the country.

Competitive Landscape

Major players operating in the UAE energy-efficient windows market include Saint-Gobain S.A. (France), Asahi Glass Co. Ltd. (Japan), Nippon Sheet Glass Co. Ltd. (Japan), Central Glass Co. Ltd. (Japan), Masco Corporation (US), and Builders First Source Inc. To further enhance their market share, these companies employ various strategies, including mergers and acquisitions, partnerships, joint ventures, license agreements, and new product launches.

Recent Developments

• In January 2023 - YES WORLD Climate Tech Pte Ltd, a Singapore-based company, launched an energy-efficient window solution for home and commercial buildings and is set to target Gulf countries, including the UAE, in the first phase.
