The North America Exterior insulation and finish system (EIFS) was valued at US$ 14,088.9 Mn in 2019 and is expected to reach US$ 23,094.4 Mn by 2026, expanding at a CAGR of 7.3% during the forecast period (2016–2026).
The market is witnessing growth due to the growing demand for thermal insulation in residential and non-residential construction and owing to the stringent regulations to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
The exterior insulation and finish system industry growth over the estimated timespan can be attributed to growing need for enhancing energy efficiency along with strict laws governing the GHG emissions in the atmosphere across the globe. In addition to this, tax subsidies and focus of the government on constructing green buildings will further add towards the surge in the market expansion over the forthcoming years. The market is further expected to witness growth due to the rising demand of EIFS systems in residential as well as non-residential sectors for reinforcing thermal insulation will steer the growth of the market over the years to come.
The research report analyses the ecosystem of EIFS market and categorizes the EIFS Market to forecast the revenues and analyse the trends in each of the following below-mentioned market segments.
By Product Type, the Polymer-based is expected to witness high growth rate during the forecast period
Based on product type, the EIFS market has been segmented as PB and PM. Among which, the PB (Polymer-based) segment is expected to grow with a higher CAGR in the market over the coming years. PB segment is projected to be a faster-growing product type in the EIFS market. PB primarily provides high thermal insulation and is cost-effective. It consists of closed expanded polystyrene (EPS) and it can be adhesively or mechanically attached to the sheathing. PB EIFS can incorporate additional layers of base coat & reinforcing mesh to achieve higher impact resistance.
The most common type of EIFS is the polymer-based (PB) system. This system has a nominally 1/16 inch thick reinforced base coat applied to the insulation prior to application of the finish coat. The insulation typically consists of closed expanded polystyrene (EPS) and can be either adhesively or mechanically attached to the sheathing.
By Insulation Type, the EPS is estimated to be a larger insulation type market in the EIFS market in 2019
Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is used in the construction industry to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Excellent insulation offered by EPS is significantly boosting its demand in green buildings. With the rising demand for green buildings, the market for EPS is expected to witness substantial growth over the forecast period.
The Expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam is used in the EIFS process because it is a good insulator and is easy to work with. The EPS foam can be sanded easily which makes it a perfect fit for the EIFS industry. High spots in an EPS foam wall can be sanded down to level the entire wall.

EIFS helps in reducing the electricity bills and can save up to 20%-30% as stated by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The EIFS can cost more initially while installing but it helps in increasing the energy efficiency of the residential and non-residential buildings. EIFS can reduce air infiltration by as much as 55% compared to standard brick or wood construction. And since walls are one of the greatest areas of heat and air conditioning loss, improvement in the wall insulation can be very meaningful in terms of energy conservation. This will increase the installation of EIFS market over the coming years. |

In June 2018, BASF, one of the world leaders in the manufacturing of construction chemicals increased the production capacity of Neopor. The company has expanded the Neopor (expandable polystyrene containing graphite) by 40,000 metric tons per year through its two production sites in Ludwigshafen, Germany, and Ulsan, Korea. At the Ulsan site in Korea, BASF will switch the plant’s entire 85,000 metric tons capacity from white EPS (expandable polystyrene) Styropor to Neopor (grey EPS), which will help the company meet the growing demand for grey material in the Asian market. |
