Automotive Aftermarket Glass Market Growth & Trends

The global automotive aftermarket glass market size is expected to reach USD 4.31 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.8% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rising demand for sidelites in the vehicles on account of increasing number of accidents is projected to fuel the growth.

The rising cases of road accidents are projected to drive the demand for automotive aftermarket glass in near future. Asia Pacific is anticipated to lead market growth on account of increasing number of vehicles and high frequency of road accidents, leading to increased demand for glass replacement.

Out of all deaths, motorcycles accounted for 70% of the fatal crashes, cars for 14%, and remaining pedestrians.

The top global automotive aftermarket glass market players, such as AGC, Inc.; Nippon Sheet Glass Co., Ltd; Fuyao Glass Industry Group Co., Ltd.; and Saint-Gobain are characterized by integration across the value chain from supplying raw materials to functioning as retailers or service providers.
