Europe Smart Glass Market Analysis

The Europe Smart Glass Market is expected to register a CAGR of 13.9% during the forecast period.

In the commercial design sector, smart glass has become an increasingly widespread feature because of its aesthetic value. Moreover, it also offers a unique ability to increase the energy efficiency of commercial buildings. Further, Increasing reforms by the European government to enhance the energy efficiency of commercial buildings are encouraging commercial building owners to invest in smart energy-saving solutions, such as smart glass.

Also, increasing applications in the field of aerospace and transportation are creating immense demand for smart glass. Some researchers estimated that smart glasses installed in automobiles are capable of providing 98% UV protection and 40% solar reduction, thus making the vehicle cabin more comfortable. Such installations are already seen in top automotive manufacturers, such as BMW and Mercedes. OneBMW'sMW's most iconic electronic hybrid, BMW i8, is reportedly using chemically-treated corning glass made by Gorilla glass to reduce 25-30% of the weight added by traditional glass installations.

Smart glass technology, when installed in buildings, also saves the cost of installing and maintaining curtains or blinds. Blackout smart glass has the ability to block around 99.4% of ultraviolet light. For instance, NHS Hospital in Paisley, United Kingdom, adopted smart glass into five of its critical patient areas in the ICU ward. This technology was used to a great extent, allowing healthcare professionals to provide privacy to patients whilst being able to monitor them visually, without disturbing them.

Europe Smart Glass Industry Overview

The EuropeSmart Glass Market is fragmented. Various established international brands, domestic brands, as well as new entrants, form a competitive landscape. The major players are increasingly seeking market expansion through various strategic mergers and acquisitions, innovation, increasing investments in research and development.

  • December 2020: Epson announced a new generation of Moverio smart glass technology range, which includes the BT-40 and BT-40S smart glasses. The glasses offer users a number of advances, including a wider field of view (FOV), significantly increased HD display resolution, high contrast, improved connectivity, and a more comfortable, adjustable, and easy-to-wear design.
  • August 2021: Nestlé's global headquarters in Switzerland were fitted with SageGlass Smart Glazing, in a 258,333 sq. ft extension built in 1977 to make it a benchmark in energy efficiency. The solution resolves key challenges for projects of this scale: optimizing employee comfort, improving the energy efficiency of the aging building, and respecting the appearance of the original shell, which reflects the neighboring structure and on which no external shading could be fitted
