PVB Interlayers Market Research Report: By Type (Structural PVB Interlayer, Standard PVB Interlayer) and By Application (Automotive, Construction, Photovoltaic Cells) – Forecast to 2030

Market Forecast

Global PVB Interlayers Market is forecast to register a CAGR of 7.5% to reach USD 5 Billion by 2025.

Polyvinyl butyral (PVB) is a resin valued for its properties of strong binding, optical clarity, and adhesion to many compounds. PVB interlayers are used in the manufacture of safety glass in the automotive and construction industries and in photovoltaic cells.

The growth of the automotive industry and construction boom are expected to drive market growth. Manufacturers are making inroads into the medical industry as the use of PVB interlayers keeps products sterile and discourages the growth of microorganisms.
