India UPVC Doors and Windows Market Trends

Over the past 15 years, India witnessed exceptional growth in the industrial and real estate sector. Urbanization, construction of smart cities, changing lifestyle due to the emerging middle-class population, and FDI in Indian companies are a few factors that have given a push to new building technologies and materials. UPVC (unplasticized polyvinyl chloride) is one such building material that has gained attention as a replacement to other traditional materials. UPVC has low maintenance, yet it is an effective material in making windows and doors. In the last couple of years, the market has witnessed an increasing demand for UPVC windows and doors due to the host of benefits uPVC offers. UPVC windows and doors provide efficient thermal insulation and help in energy conservation. Not only this, UPVC windows provide high sound insulation with properly fabricated windows and installations. In FY 2015, the Government of India started a project of making 100 smart cities by FY 2020. Safety of the public, energy conservation, and eco-friendliness are prime agendas of smart cities. Owing to the high compliance of UPVC doors and windows in high-rise buildings and aesthetics properties, they are more likely to emerge as the preferred fenestration choice over conventional aluminum and timber counterparts. Moreover, a few infrastructural development projects will be undertaken in these cities, which may provide further impetus to the industry over the period 2019-2023.
