GIA announces the release of a comprehensive global report on the Rolled Glass markets. Global market for Rolled Glass is projected to reach 3.0 million metric tons by 2018, driven by sustained demand from residential, commercial, and specialty applications.

Worldwide consumption of glass is growing led by its increasing use in automotive and building construction markets.Demand trends in the flat glass market are shaped by the pace of economic development as well as the legislative and regulatory landscape. Flat glass is produced using two float, rolled and sheet glass techniques, with float glass accounting for a predominant share of the overall demand. In contrast, rolled glass accounted for a very small percentage of the global flat glass demand during 2012. Rolled glass primarily finds use in residential, specialty and commercial applications, including shower enclosures, glass doors, partitions, solar photovoltaic panels, among others.
