Abstract

US demand to grow nearly 6% annually through 2012

US demand for insulation materials is projected to exceed $11 billion in 2012 on yearly growth of almost six percent. Advances will be supported by a rebound in the residential market, especially in new housing construction. New applications of insulation will benefit as housing starts recover from their depressed level in 2007, while retrofit uses of insulation will be powered by homeowners seeking to conserve energy and reduce heating and cooling costs. Although unit price increases for insulation materials are expected to moderate from their 2002-2007 pace, the growth in unit demand will more than offset the slower price gains.

While not as ebullient as the residential market, nonresidential building construction will offer opportunities for insulation products, with greater insulation use per structure and upgrades of insulation for existing buildings supporting demand. Modest increases in new building construction expenditures over the forecast period will boost insulation demand in new applications.

Study coverage

It presents historical demand data (1997, 2002, 2007) plus forecasts (2012, 2017) by material, product, market, and region of the US. The study also considers market environment factors, evaluates market share data and profiles 35 industry participants.
