Covid just like other industries has hit the glass industry alike and has completely changed the layout of it. This has also impacted the key trends in the glass industry both at national and international level. Products which were very popular in the glass industry before covid such sliding partitions, internal glass partitions stopped getting sold out as everything was shot down in lockdown. The best internal glass partitions in Delhi made by Satkartar Glass Solutions were rendered of no use due to covid. These changes have introduced both bad and some drastically great changes. Some of the key trends of the glass industries are:-
● Market Growth
● Regulatory
● Change in customer needs and expectations
● Smart buildings
● Economic transformations
● Evolving technology
● Smart buildings.
These are both internal and external revolving round the glass industry and effecting the same. These changes have majorly impacted the most used products of the glass industry such as internal glass partition. Some of these changes have made a direct impact, whereas others have made an indirect effect. Some of the factors such as customer expectations, innovation and evolution can still be completely controlled.
If we compare the glass industry pre and post covid scenarios, we will see that the glass industry has evolved a lot in the past few years (excluding the last two years.of covid).These evolutions have been in the terms of manufacturing great products such as sliding glass partition, internal glass partitions. It has gone from sheet glass to coat glass, from float to tinted to hardcoat. We can see a huge wave of technological change that has swept away the glass industry. If we discuss the changes in terms of the processing there has been the growth from toughened to laminate to D- Zero.
If we dive deep down the technological point of view, we will see that technology in the glass industry is revolutionizing much faster than ever before and hence it is making fabulous partitions glass like internal glass partitions and other amazing products such as vacuum insulated glasses, transparent project glasses, thermochromic, electrochromatic, touch control glasses. All of these changes together are going to change the face of the glass industry. If we link these changes to the Indian glass industry alone, we will observe that the most popular form of development doing rounds is the coated glass. This kind is really going to dominate the Indian market in the next 3-5 years.
A lot of changes has also taken place in terms of customer needs and expectations from the glass industry. This has been and remains one of the key criterias. Customers would always want that their buildings or their required structures are looking best. But, what has changed more recently now is that the customer has become more and more aware and now they talk about things like energy efficiency, safety, functionality of the glass.
Next major change in the glass industry is occurring around regulations. Regulations play a very very critical role in the evolution of the market and the similar practice is going on in the Indian markets at this time. Recently, the GIS standard has been upgraded for float and coated glass particularly. The implementation of these will again bring a new wave of change.
Keeping all these changes in place we at Satkartar Glass Solutions have also introduced some newly defined products for our customers and just like our existing products such as internal glass partition, these products too are a combination of high quality and innovation. Our products are a clear reflection of our purpose, vision and value towards our customers and the industry as a whole
