AG glass, or anti-glare glass, is a specially treated glass surface designed to reduce glare and reflections from ambient light sources. It achieves this by incorporating a finely etched or coated surface that diffuses incoming light, rather than reflecting it directly. This helps improve visibility, clarity, and reduces eye strain, making it particularly valuable in environments with strong lighting or sunlight. The anti-glare effect is commonly achieved through chemical etching, sandblasting, or specialized coatings, depending on the desired optical and tactile performance.
AG glass is widely used in applications such as touchscreens, displays, control panels, automotive dashboards, and public kiosks, where consistent readability is essential. Beyond visual comfort, it also offers scratch resistance and improved surface durability, making it ideal for high-traffic or frequently touched devices. Its matte finish can also enhance the tactile experience, especially for stylus-based input or digital drawing. As display technologies continue to expand in both consumer and industrial contexts, AG glass remains a key material for improving user experience under a variety of lighting conditions.
From a regional perspective, the current consumption areas of AG glass are mainly concentrated in North America and Europe, accounting for 31.48% and 30.76% of the global market in 2024, respectively. At the same time, North America and Europe are the world's major production areas. The Chinese market is the most promising market, which has changed rapidly in the past few years. The market size in 2024 is 159.56 million US dollars, accounting for about 16.41% of the world.
In terms of product type and technology, the spray type occupies the largest share in the global market, accounting for 49.65% of the global total market in 2024. This is because the global market is mainly used in the construction industry, which mainly uses spray-type AG glass, which has a large area of use and low cost. The construction industry accounted for 48.09% of the global market in 2024. The Chinese market presents a completely different way of use. Since AG glass is more used in consumer electronics and other industrial equipment, medical equipment electronics in China, the chemical etching type is most widely used.
Currently, the world's major manufacturers include Schott, Corning, AGC, etc. In 2020, the top three manufacturers accounted for about 55% of the market share, which exceeds the average market share. Due to its superior performance, more companies are expected to enter the market in the next few years, resulting in more intense competition in the industry, especially in the Chinese market. Although there are many companies in the Chinese market that can produce AG glass, compared with international manufacturers, the product quality is relatively low and the performance is not stable enough. Many manufacturers and scientific research institutions cooperate to develop AG glass. I believe that the Chinese market will account for an increasingly larger share of the global market in the future.
