市場の定義

A gas barrier membrane is a type of membrane technology developed as a barrier against harmful ground gases such as radon, carbon dioxide, and methane. These are widely used in floor construction and the protection of commercial and residential buildings. They are made up of polymers such as polyamide and cellulose acetate. Gas barriers provide multilayer protection and help to sustain the buildings from harmful gases emitted by the contaminated land. There are different types of gas barrier membranes used for different applications such as industrial, commercial, and residential. Gas barrier membranes have become a part of modern construction regulations and are used widely for floor construction and property protection.

Europe Gas Barrier Membrane Market Dynamics

This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail below:

DRIVERS

• Rising Concerns to Protect Building Structures from Hazardous Ground Gases

The Europe gas barrier membrane market is expected to grow at a significant rate in the near future owing to rising concerns to protect building structures from hazardous ground gases. Prevention of invisible and harmful gases to enter into residential and commercial structures is expected to increase the demand for these membranes that prevent gas penetration. Contaminated land emits radon and carbon dioxide gases among others from ground surfaces that can negatively impact human health, therefore, modern houses need barrier protection to prevent these. This is anticipated to help in the increased demand for gas barrier protection in these structures.

• Increasing Construction Activities on Contaminated and Industrial Land

Across the European region, the urban population is growing steadily and the demand for land is rapidly increasing. Revitalizing and remediating industrial sites and contaminated land presents an opportunity for sustainable urban development and construction of new residential and commercial buildings and reduces pressure on undisturbed land resources. Redevelopment of contaminated sites has various challenges and may cause continued environmental and health consequences if contamination risks are not properly managed or remediated. Urban areas stimulate migration from the countryside by providing employment opportunities, prospects for higher living standards, and vibrant city life. The growing urban population and associated urban sprawl pose several challenges to urban planners and local authorities.

• Increase in Demand for Biogas and Natural Gas

One of the most important applications of gas barrier membranes is the separation of carbon dioxide from gas streams. It is employed in gas sweetening, improved oil recovery, and biogas purification. The most common application for gas barrier membranes is the removal of carbon dioxide from natural gas, followed by improved oil recovery. Carbon dioxide is an acid gas that is found in high concentrations in natural gas. When it integrates with water, it becomes extremely corrosive, corroding pipelines and equipment. It also affects natural gas’s heating value and pipeline capacity. Therefore, carbon dioxide must be eliminated from Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) plants to avoid low-temperature chillers from freezing. Carbon dioxide removal becomes a crucial separation procedure for better natural gas transmission and processing.

OPPORTUNITIES

• Growth and Expansion of Construction Industry

The rise in demand for gas barrier membranes in the building and construction sector is increasing the growth rate of the European market. Construction on contaminated land spaces gives rise to the emission of harmful gases such as methane, carbon dioxide, radon, and carbon monoxide. So, the gas barrier membranes are used as gas barrier protection as they help to protect human health and the environment from harmful gases. Thus, growth in the construction industry across European countries is likely to create immense opportunities for market growth in the near future.

• Advancements in Technologies for the Production of Gas Membranes

Manufacturers in the gas barrier membranes market are focusing on the introduction of gas membranes with multi-function capabilities such as protection from hazardous gases and waterproofing at the same time among other technological advancements. Technological developments in the product have introduced barrier membranes with reinforced polymers and integral aluminum foil and enhanced strength to sustain in heavy-weighing flooring applications.

Furthermore, the market is expected to rise due to an increase in the number of R&D efforts aimed at improving the efficacy of gas separation membranes.

• Enforcement of Stricter Gas and Carbon Emission Norms

Gas barrier membranes when installed with relevant codes of practices, provide safe solutions for the protection of buildings against various gases and chemicals that occur naturally and through contaminated land. The products’ multilayer structure, high strength, and easy installation have propelled their popularity in the European market. These barrier membranes are installed in the flooring foundation of newly built properties.

The early structural planning of the construction site complying with building standards and regulations and the use of barrier membranes can prevent harmful gases and chemicals from entering the interior of the property. Thus, builders nowadays are focusing on the installation of gas barriers for residential and commercial construction specifically for precast concrete slabs, suspended beam-and-block concrete floors, and reinforced cast-in-situ concrete floors.

RESTRAINTS/CHALLENGES

• Lack of Awareness Regarding Gas Barrier Membranes

Installation of gas barrier membranes additionally adds up to the construction costs of a building or any other space. Moreover, there is a lack of awareness regarding the installation of gas barrier membranes among end-users and consumers as not all constructors are aware of the application of gas barrier membranes as well as are not skilled in their installation. Moreover, there are several other technologies for the removal of gases such as the amine guard process, cryogenic process, pressure swing adsorption, thermal swing adsorption, and many others, which add up to the challenge to the market growth. Further, these barrier membrane techniques are widely employed in the chemical, petrochemical, and other manufacturing industries for the separation of gases. Therefore, there is awareness regarding these membranes among end-users from the residential sector. This lack of awareness regarding the benefits of gas barrier membranes is expected to act as a major challenge to the growth and development of the market.

• Upscaling and Commercializing New Membranes

Most of the gas barrier and separation membranes are created and developed in the laboratory under controlled conditions. Upscaling of new membrane technology will ensure reliability and durability. Upscaling also ensures the safe design and operation of the membrane in real operating conditions. However, testing these newly developed gas barrier membranes in the pilot plant and analyzing their performance is highly time-consuming and needs high installation and construction costs. Therefore, most of the membranes developed in recent times or years are not fully tested and are yet to be tested under real conditions, which leads to delays in their commercialization and incur huge loss to the manufacturers. The high costs and time consumption associated with the upscaling and commercializing of new gas barrier membrane products in the market pose a major challenge for the market players operating in the market.

• Lack of Skilled Workforce Required to Install These Membranes

The installation of gas barrier membranes requires a skilled workforce and detailing to achieve effective sealing across the space. Moreover, the lack of awareness about the product and its benefits along with the lack of a skilled workforce is likely to hamper its demand for gas barrier membranes.

Moreover, these membranes are available in different forms such as radon barrier membranes, self-adhesive gas membranes, liquid gas membranes, and others. Specialized membrane products are available for protection against CO2, methane, and hydrocarbons. Further, the installation of these membranes requires special components including joint tapes, top hat units, detailing tapes, drainage & venting map, heavy-duty protection board, and other equipment, which add to the cost of installation and complete gas barrier membrane set-up.
