Market Size Growing

A recent press release from Global Market Insights has predicted that window and door market size is expected to exceed USD 250 billion by 2023 growing at a compound annual growth rate of over 6% from 2016 to 2023. As well as new construction projects, repair and upgrade activities will further support this growth. In North America, a recent government tax credit for energy efficient doors and windows has been a huge success. In the Middle East, 2017 will be the busiest year for hotel openings, and a new industry report has revealed. Also of interest to those in the Façade and Fenestration sector is the forecast that the UAE and Saudi Arabia will, between them, open more than 320 new hotels before 2020.

Green Building

One of the most exciting pre-announcements from the upcoming Intersolar Middle East event, (September 19 to 21), was that in 2017, InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) would complete Dubai’s first 100% solar-powered hotel. Complementing the news of this venture was the Green Building Conference which took place last week in Singapore.  One of the main topics up for discussion was whether all buildings could be made net-zero regarding their carbon footprint and if not, the short-term target should be reduced energy consumption. All of these developments will result in a growing job market and further opportunities for suitable candidates. At Elk Recruitment, our in-depth knowledge of the Façade and Fenestration sector means we are at the forefront of this industry and are strategically positioned to offer exciting new placements within this sector.
