The report, now available on ASDReports, recognizes the following companies as the key players in the global commercial aircraft windshield and window market: Gentex, GKN, PPG Industries, Saint-Gobain, and The NORDAM Group.

Commenting on the report, an analyst said: “One trend in the market is growing emergence of adjustable tint aircraft window. The growing emergence of adjustable tint aircraft window is one of the key trends in the commercial aircraft windshield and window market. With the growing technological advances, the windows of the commercial aircraft are evolving.”

According to the report, one driver in the market is development of environment-friendly aircraft windshields. Commercial aircraft leads to carbon emissions across the world. The fuel carbon emission levels increase owing to the growth in passenger traffic that drives the need for extra fleets. To reduce the impact of commercial aircraft greenhouse gas emissions, the ICAO has adopted a new aircraft CO2 emission standard.

Further, the report states that one challenge in the market is mechanical failures and design constraints in windshields. The operational aircraft encounters debris and other particles in the air when the fleet is flying or on the ground. These particles may cause mechanical damage to the aircraft windshield and windows that may lead to pits, scratches, chips, and hazing along with the combined effect of crazing.

The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
