The several advantages of sandwich panels are the key factors driving the growth of the global market. There are several advantages of using sandwich panels that are driving their demand, such as the fast and easy installation, perfect thermal insulation, and provides the aesthetic appearance of the buildings. In a fast and easy installation process, contrary to conventional systems, continuous-line manufactured sandwich panels come in fully compatible, ready-to-assemble pieces, and it is also prepared in the required dimensions, insulation types, and colors based on the structure of your facility.
Moreover, these have been thermally insulated to ensure that your structure will be sturdy and long-lasting by preventing issues like mold and humidity brought on by heat movements and condensation. The thickness of the insulation used in it varies depending on the structure's ability to support its weight, the climate in the area, the building's intended use, and the thermal insulation value. It provides aesthetic appearances to the buildings, and the end-users can make a variety of designs with sandwich panels because they can be employed in internal portions as well. Such factors are expected to fuel the growth of the global market during the forecast period.
An increase in demand for sandwich panels in cold storage is the primary trend in the global market growth. They are becoming an increasingly popular solution for refrigeration applications as demand has steadily increased in recent years. This is mainly due to the many advantages these panels offer, making them an excellent choice for cold store owners. One of the main factors driving the demand for these for refrigeration is their excellent insulation capacity. A sandwich panel consists of two outer layers of metal or other material with insulations sandwiched between them. This design minimizes heat transfer between the inside and outside of the unit, keeping the temperature inside stable. This is important for refrigerated warehouses where products need to be kept at specific temperatures to prevent spoilage and maintain quality.
Additionally, they are easy and quick to install, which is another reason for their increasing popularity in cold storage. The panels can be cut to fit the specific dimensions of the facility and can be installed rapidly with minimal disruption to the ongoing operations. This can be especially beneficial for facilities that need to start operations quickly or are undergoing renovations or expansions. Moreover, sandwich panels offer an aesthetically pleasing appearance, which can enhance the overall appeal of the facility. Thus, the above-mentioned factors are expected to fuel the growth of the global market during the forecast period.
The volatility of raw material prices is a major challenge to the growth of the global market. The sandwich panel industry faces major challenges due to volatility in raw material prices. This issue has adversely affected the global sandwich panel market in recent years, causing price hikes, production delays, and supply chain disruptions. Key raw materials such as polyurethane, polystyrene, and mineral wool used in sandwich panels are highly dependent on oil prices. Fluctuations in oil prices, therefore, have a direct impact on raw material costs. The oil industry has experienced several ups and downs in recent years, which has caused commodity prices to skyrocket.
Moreover, the uncertainty caused by the volatile prices of raw materials has also affected the production process, leading to delays and supply chain disruptions. Manufacturers can no longer assure timely delivery to clients, who then must bear additional costs such as storage fees or delays in their projects. In addition, the cost of transportation has also increased due to the rise in raw material prices. This has impacted the shipping of sandwich panels across various regions, resulting in higher transportation costs, further contributing to price escalation. Thus, such factors are expected to hinder the growth of the market in focus during the forecast period.
