Delray Beach, Fla. – September 08, 2026 -- The global fire-resistant glass market is projected to expand from USD 11.65 billion in 2026 to USD 18.09 billion by 2031, a compound annual growth rate of 9.2%, according to new research from MarketsandMarkets.

Building and construction absorbs 83.7% of market value

The building & construction segment accounted for 83.7% of fire-resistant glass value in 2025 and is also expected to post the fastest growth through 2031. Stringent building codes and rising demand for fire protection in residential, commercial, institutional, and infrastructure projects are pushing adoption of the material in doors, partitions, facades, windows, and curtain walls. Growth in high-rise construction, healthcare facilities, and transportation infrastructure is widening the addressable base.
