Global Ag Glass Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

Global Ag Glass Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

AG glass is also called non-glare glass which is manufactured by etching one or two surfaces of the glass with special chemical solutions. Its characteristic is turning the reflective surface of the original glass into a matte diffused surface. It not only can weaken the effect of reflection and glare, lower the reflectance and reduce ghost images, but also give the surfaces of anti-glare products superb anti-corrosion and scratch-proof performance.

Market Overview:

The latest research study on the global Ag Glass market finds that the global Ag Glass market reached a value of USD 1064.1 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 1725.68 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 8.39% during the forecast period.

Environmental Issues

Since the raw materials for manufacturing anti-glare glass contain many chemical products, they have a certain influence on the environment during the manufacturing process.

Backward Production Technology

The technology for producing anti-glare glass is still relatively backward, especially in some developing countries, resulting in the anti-glare glass not being mass-produced.

Support from Government

Many national government policies encourage the glass deep processing industry to develop toward high-tech products and promote the development of the AG glass industry.

Huge Market

AG glass itself has a good application advantage. As people's awareness of AG glass increases, the market penetration rate of AG glass continues to increase, and the demand for products also increases rapidly. On the other hand, as the application field of AG glass continues to expand, its market is further expanding.

Region Overview:

Geographically, Europe held the largest market share – 32.36% in 2022.

Company Overview:

Schott is one of the major players operating in the Ag Glass market, holding a share of 24.42% in 2023.

Schott

Schott AG manufactures glass products. The Company offers products such as glass ceramic cooktops, solar power modules, glass metal enclosures, color filters, and syringers. Schott caters their products to household appliance, solar power, pharmaceuticals, electronics, optics, transportation, and architecture industries.

Corning

Corning is one of the world's leading innovators in materials science, with a 167-year track record of life-changing inventions. Corning applies its unparalleled expertise in glass science, ceramics science, and optical physics, along with its deep manufacturing and engineering capabilities, to develop category-defining products that transform industries and enhance people's lives.

Segmentation Overview:

As for product types, the Chemical Etching segment held the largest market share in 2022.

Chemical Etching

The process involves applying a chemical-based surface treatment (chemical AG process) directly to the surface of glass to form micro asperities and gives the glass an anti-glare effect under the likes of sunlight.

Spraying

Anti- glare spray is mostly intended for photographers trying to work with highly reflective surfaces.

Coating

These coatings create a textured surface that uses diffusion to “break down” reflected light from a surface. What this means is that rather than reflecting the light directly (like, for example, with a mirror), the light is dispersed at different angles. This makes the reflection blurry and less visible, reducing its intrusion on our vision and allowing the glass to transmit more clearly. Anti- glare coatings deal with external sources of light, such as sunlight or headlights or lamps.

Application Overview:

By application, the Consumer Electronics segment occupied the biggest share from 2018 to 2022.
