PHOTOCHROMIC FILMS MARKETREPORT OVERVIEW

The global photochromic films market size was USD 0.05 billion in 2024 and is projected to touch USD 0.11 billion by 2033, at a CAGR of 8.8% during the forecast period from 2025 To 2033.

The photochromic film is a thin material you can mount on a window surface. It can use this film on polycarbonate or glass surface that do not have photochromic features.The photochromic film is fairly diverse from the old-fashioned tinted films. These films alter the degree of shade depending on the light strength. An upsurge in the sun’s UV energy or illumination makes the film shadier. The photochromic film has exclusive features that are most renowned for their presence. During the daytime or when bare to sunlight, photochromic window film reduces a dimmer shade that deals the same ultraviolet (UV) protection as the greatest sun-blocking films.

COVID-19 IMPACT

"Halt on Construction Sector to Impede Market Growth"

The construction sector has encountered problems due to the COVID-19 pandemic, containing logistics and raw material scarcities.
