The analysts forecast the Global Antibacterial Glass market to grow at a CAGR of 6.39 percent over the period 2013-2018. One of the key factors contributing to this market growth is the increasing prevalence of HAIs. The Global Antibacterial Glass market has also been witnessing the increase in competition among vendors. However, the lack of a standard industry benchmark could pose a challenge to the growth of this market.

The report, the Global Antibacterial Glass Market 2014-2018, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers Europe, North America, the APAC region, and the ROW; it also covers the Global Antibacterial Glass market landscape and its growth prospects in the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

The Global Antibacterial Glass market has been witnessing growth in the demand for antibacterial glass from the Food and Beverage industry. The major reason behind this growth is the increased number of instances of food poisoning. Many recent food poisoning cases in the US and food hygiene-related issues in Europe in 2011-2012 have forced Food and Beverage industry vendors to take preventive measures.

For instance, hundreds of people fell ill after consuming Salmonella-tainted salmon in the US in 2012. Also, the increasing consumer awareness about contaminated food has increased the concern for food safety. Antibacterial glass is best suited for structures where hygiene requirements have high priority. They also prevent fungi from multiplying. These factors are forcing Food and Beverage industry vendors to adopt antibacterial glass to prevent instances of food poisoning.
