Polyethylene Vapor Barrier Films For Under Slab Industry Overview
The global polyethylene vapor barrier films for under slab market size was valued at USD 1.18 billion in 2020 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9% from 2021 to 2028.
The growing construction activities are significantly fueling the growth of the market. Polyethylene (PE) vapor barrier films are widely used in the construction industry for under slab applications to block water vapors coming up from the ground underneath a building. These films play a major role in mitigating damage caused by trapped moisture below flooring and foundation, which, in long term, result in the formulation of mold and mildew, releasing airborne mold spores that can lead to serious respiratory ailments and deterioration of building materials. Therefore, to mitigate the aforementioned risks and increase the life of buildings, the construction industry has increasingly started the application of polyethylene vapor barrier films in new construction as well as refurbished walls, ceilings or floors, and under slabs.
