Roofing Market Drivers and Opportunities

Growing Renovation and Remodeling Activities Favor Market Growth

Renovation involves reconstructing infrastructural facilities with state-of-the-art construction materials to promote structural properties, improve lifespan, and minimize environmental impact. Renovation and remodeling activities help align infrastructural facilities with present and future needs. Rapid urbanization propels the demand for better residential and commercial facilities, leading to the rise in home improvement budgets. According to information provided by the 2022 US Houzz and Home Study, the median spending of homeowners rose by 20% from US$ 15,000 in 2020 to US$ 18,000 in 2021. As per the data published by the Joint Center for Housing Centers of Harvard University (JCHS), home improvement project spending in the US increased from US$ 328 billion in 2019 to US$ 472 billion in 2022; it is further estimated to surge to US$ 485 billion in 2024. In Europe, renovation activities represent 30% of total investment in construction, as stated by the European Construction Industry Federation (FIEC). The demand for roofing materials ultimately surges with an increase in renovation and remodeling activities.

Rising Popularity of Solar Roofs to Create Growth Opportunities in Future

Societies worldwide grapple with the urgent need to transition toward renewable energy sources and mitigate the consequences of climate change, and solar power has been emerging as a frontrunner among all renewable sources due to the abundance and accessibility of solar energy in many parts of the world, along with the environmental benefits associated with its usage. According to the US Energy Information Administration, the overall share of renewable energy in total electricity generation is expected to rise to 26% by the end of 2025. In contrast, the share of natural gas would drop from 42% in 2023 to 41% by 2025. The surging use of solar energy is revolutionizing the building and construction landscape. The demand for innovative solutions such as solar roofs to seamlessly integrate solar technology into building structures is rising across the construction industry. The building and construction sector contributes notably to global climate change, accounting for ~21% of global greenhouse gas emissions. As per data published by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) 2022, buildings were responsible for 34% of global energy demand and 37% of energy and process-related carbon dioxide emissions. The rising concerns about greenhouse gas emissions have added to the popularity of energy-efficient buildings, which is likely to propel the demand for green roofs in the coming years.
