- Building thermal insulation materials are increasingly adopted across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors due to their effectiveness in reducing energy consumption, enhancing indoor comfort, and complying with stringent energy efficiency regulations. These materials contribute significantly to sustainable construction by minimizing heat transfer and lowering HVAC-related energy demands
- The rising global emphasis on green building certifications, carbon neutrality, and environmentally responsible construction is accelerating the demand for advanced insulation materials, including mineral wool, polyurethane foam, expanded polystyrene (EPS), and eco-friendly bio-based alternatives. Builders and developers are prioritizing solutions that offer thermal performance, fire resistance, and moisture control
- North America dominates the Building Thermal Insulation Materials Market with the largest revenue share of 38.01% in 2024, driven by established regulatory standards such as LEED and the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC), along with significant investments in energy-efficient retrofitting projects across the U.S. and Canada
- Asia-Pacific is projected to be the fastest-growing region during the forecast period, fueled by rapid urbanization, growth in residential construction, and government initiatives promoting energy-efficient infrastructure in countries such as China, India, South Korea, and Southeast Asian nations
- Among material types, mineral wool holds a significant market share of 44.6% in 2024 due to its excellent thermal and acoustic insulation properties, non-combustibility, and wide applicability in both new construction and renovation. However, demand for bio-based and recyclable insulation materials is rising rapidly, reflecting the construction industry's shift toward sustainable and circular economy practices
