The global smart glass market size is expected to reach USD 10.62 billion by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “Smart Glass Market Size, Share, Trends, Industry Analysis Report: By Technology (Photochromic, Liquid Crystal, Suspended Particle Display, Electrochromic, Thermochromic, and Others), End Use, and Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa) – Market Forecast, 2025–2034” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.

Smart glass is a type of glass that uses advanced technologies to control light and heat. It can be made to appear opaque or clear, as required, using electricity, light, or heat. The glass is usually made by sandwiching liquid crystals between two glass pieces. Along with controlling light and heat, smart glass can block UV rays and provide privacy.

The increasing investments in the architecture and construction sector, along with the growing disposable income of consumers, drive the smart glass market growth. Rising applications in the automotive and transportation sector, growing modernization of vehicles, and stringent regulations regarding vehicular safety and performance further drive the adoption of smart glass solutions.

Technological advancements, growing emphasis on energy efficiency, rising demand for privacy, and the shift toward sustainable solutions are anticipated to be the key smart glass market trends during the forecast period. Further, the growing use of smart glass in commercial spaces, healthcare, and hospitality sectors is anticipated to provide lucrative opportunities during the forecast period.

Major participants in the smart glass market are adopting strategic initiatives such as partnerships, mergers and acquisitions, and collaborations to expand their market reach and meet sustainability goals. In February 2023, Saint Gobain announced its collaboration with leading glass manufacturing company AGC Inc. The company stated that the partnership will focus on designing a pilot flat glass line that’s expected to reduce the company’s direct carbon dioxide emissions.
