Experts Question Claims of Global Glass Shortage

Date: 14 October 2015

Recently, The Wall Street Journal reported a commercial glass shortage, specifically for curtain wall, the non-structural, metal-framed glass that covers the exterior of many high-rises and other commercial buildings.

According to The Journal, the shortage is driving construction costs up and has the potential to stall projects all over the country.So is there really a true glass shortage? Or can the tight supply be chalked up to the cyclical ups and downs of the construction industry?
