The global architectural fabrics market is expected to be driven by growing popularity of textile facades due to the advantages they offer for temporary and permanent constructions. Further, the fact that fabric facades are a rapidly growing segment with significant scope for innovation, and that these solutions are lightweight, alterable and environmentally friendly, is expected to help the market grow. North America and Europe are projected to be key markets.
Architectural fabric structures offer easy and relatively economical solutions for large and open spaces. For several industrial applications including warehouses, aircraft hangars, and bulk storage facilities, architectural fabric structures (clear span structures) are good solutions. Other applications include sporting facilities (for football, soccer, tennis, baseball, and swimming pools), sports pavilions and stadiums, amphitheaters, airport terminals, rail stations, churches, and other public gathering sites.
Another advantage of fabric structures is reduced construction and installation time. Many fabric structures are pre-engineered. The architectural fabric also is pre-fabricated at the manufacturer and is delivered at the site in the form of large panels, ready to install and cover several hundreds or thousands of square feet at a time. Thus, the time needed to erect a structure is relatively short. Further, fabric structures may also be very appealing and offer a unique and high-profile feeling.
Fabric structures offer permanent, short-term, as well as relocatable options. Architectural fabric structures intended to be permanent may be relocated if required. Permanent structures may indeed be permanent. The structure may be supported with internal metal frames, mast and cables. The life of the architectural fabric is nearly twenty to thirty years, and when required, the fabric may be replaced. The expected life of metal structures, cables and masts is over fifty years. Permanent fabric structures may be insulated with fiberglass or other lightweight insulation alternatives.
Architectural fabric structures are environmentally friendly and energy-efficient. Being lightweight, fabric structures are able to cover large areas with low mass and lower energy consumption. Further, several parts of an architectural fabric structure may be recycled or reused at end of life, making these solutions sustainable and eco-friendly.
The aforementioned benefits are expected to drive the global architectural fabrics market. Further, the market is expected to expand as awareness of architectural fabrics increases among architects and clients. Currently, marketers are engaged in the creation of new divisions dedicated to promoting and selling innovative façade systems in addition to awnings, canopies and fabric structures. With more education and influence of owners, contractors and architects, the market is likely to see expansion.
