Introduction Market estimates in the U.S. Industry Statistical Review and Forecast are driven not only by statistics published by the Census Bureau and other construction statistics organizations, but also from primary interviews with leading manufacturers of windows, doors and skylights, as well as component suppliers. All forecasts are based on projections of construction activity as of March 2009 and appropriate usage factors and tabulations developed by Ducker Worldwide LLC, which is solely responsible for the data. Any questions on the Review or its contents should be directed to Ducker. Ducker has been conducting residential and nonresidential market studies continuously since 1982 for the American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA). From 1978 to 1981, studies were conducted for the Sealed Insulating Glass Manufacturers Association (SIGMA- (currently referred to as IGMA). Ducker has been conducting the update study of the U.S. residential and nonresidential window and door markets for AAMA in combination with the Window and Door Manufacturers Association (WDMA) since October of 1994. The U.S. Industry Statistical Review and Forecast is published annually. Additional and much more detailed information on window, door and skylight markets is contained in the (2007) Study of the U.S. Market for Windows, Doors and Skylights, and The Distribution of Residential and Nonresidential Windows and Doors in the 2007 U.S. Market, as well as individual Statistical Review and Forecast market overview reports for each of the 11 major U.S. regional markets. All reports are available from AAMA, WDMA, or Ducker.

Total housing starts continued to decline in 2008, dropping to the lowest level since the Census Bureau began tracking the data in 1959. Single family starts showed the largest drop, declining by 40.5 percent to 622,000 units. Multifamily housing starts and manufactured home shipments showed a more moderate decline, but these segments declined by 8.3 and 14.3 percent respectively. Regionally, the West showed the steepest decline in conventional starts during this timeframe at 38.9 percent. The Northeast showed the most resilience and declined by only 15.3 percent due to a higher percentage of multifamily in this market. The Midwest and South declined at a similar rate to the national total at 35.8 and 33.4 percent respectively. For 2009, starts are expected to continue to decline by nearly 42 percent as both single and multifamily starts decline significantly. The residential new construction market is forecast to improve in 2010.

Total Residential Improvement Expenditures

The Bureau of the Census ceased tracking and publishing data on the remodeling market in the fourth quarter of 2007. Ducker continues to estimate and track this market using data from the Harvard Joint Center for Housing Studies Leading Indicator of Remodeling Activity (LIRA) in additional to review of same store sales by large home improvement retailers. Based on these inputs the remodeling market is estimated to have declined by 12 percent to $124.5 billion in 2008. Declines in the overall sales of existing homes, double digit declines in home values, and much more stringent credit requirements for mortgages and home equity loans continue to adversely impact the remodeling market. 2009 residential improvement expenditures are expected to decline by an additional 14 percent, but the market should improve by 8 percent in 2010.

Note: Included in the total are additions, alterations, and major replacements. Excluded are maintenance, repairs, and outside additions/alterations

Existing Home Sales The National Association of Realtors publishes data on existing home sales, segmented at a national level into single family versus condominium, or co-op sales. Existing home sales declined for the third consecutive year to slightly under 5 million units. This represents a 13.1 percent decline from the 5.6 million homes sold in 2007. Condominiums and co-ops were harder hit and declined by over 21 percent. Inventory has declined, but remains at a very high historical level and a 10.5 month supply of homes exists in the marketplace. Distressed sales, such as foreclosures, are also accounting for a significant volume of existing home sales. Sales of existing homes are expected to gradually improve throughout 2009, but an overall decline of 2.5 percent is expected.

Prime Windows The residential window market is classified into four main categories based on the predominant frame and sash materials: wood (including clad wood), vinyl, aluminum and fiberglass. A fifth category, “other” windows describes all other plastic materials including ABS plastics, cellular vinyl, and PVC/wood composites. The drastically declining new construction market coupled with the drop in remodeling expenditures continues to take a significant toll on nearly all the segments and regions of the residential window market. In total, the residential window market declined by over 18 percent. New construction applications declined by 27.1 percent from 2007 to 2008, while remodeling and replacement applications dropped by 11.8 percent. The conventional window market does not include an additional 3.8 million units used in light commercial and manufactured housing applications, which brings the total “residential-type” prime windows to 52.2 million units. Within this other segment, the light-commercial market declined by 7 percent and units for manufactured housing declined by an additional 15 percent.

Prime Windows Marginal share shift continued in the total market away from wood and aluminum to vinyl, but much of this is an impact of overall application mix between new construction and remodeling and replacement. Vinyl windows declined by nearly 17 percent in aggregate. Aluminum products showed the steepest rate of decline at 26.6 percent, while wood windows declined by an additional 21.4 percent. Fiberglass continues to grow despite the downturn, showing a 6.2 percent rate of growth as this product becomes more available to and accepted by consumers and builders. Other windows also showed some growth on the remodeling side and this category grew by 3.4 percent in aggregate. The growing volume of foreclosures impacting both the resale and new construction housing market has created some uncertainty regarding the impact of recently announced incentives for new home buyers and tax credits for energy efficient window replacement. Replacement windows may receive the most direct boost in the short term, however the long term and indirect effects of the program remain challenging to forecast due to the unprecedented macro economic environment. Preliminarily, the market is expected to continue to decline by an additional 23.9 percent in 2009, but show marked improvement from 2010 to 2012. Shipments of Prime Windows

Storm Doors Shipments of storm doors decreased to approximately 4.4 million units, which was an 18.5 percent decline over 2007. Significant decreases in new construction and remodeling activity influenced the decline. A 25.5 percent decline in the market is expected for 2009. Conditions are expected to improve in 2010 through 2012, but increasing energy efficiency of entry doors and continued trends toward decorative entry doorlites may temper overall growth.

*Other defined as “vinyl or metal cladding over wood, wood composite or foam core.”

Residential Type Unit Skylights Residential skylights saw a decline of over 22 percent from 2007 to 2008. The higher than expected decline was driven by sharp slowdowns in new construction and remodeling activity. As builders looked for ways to cut costs, discretionary products like skylights saw a more significant drop than entry doors and windows. For 2009, the market is expected to continue to decline by roughly 28.6 percent. As the market rebounds in 2010, shipments are expected to increase by over 21 percent over 2009 levels and the market should regain strong growth through 2012.

Residential Patio Doors Patio door shipments continue to correlate closely with the overall broader window market. The 2008 total patio door market declined by 18.1 percent from 2008 levels. The new construction market bore the brunt of the largest decline of 26.4 percent, while the remodeling and replacement market declined by 11.4 percent. During this time period vinyl products declined by 15 percent, while wood and aluminum doors declined by 21.3 and 25.8 percent respectively. These products are traditionally manufactured by window manufacturers, while steel and fiberglass products are made by traditional door manufacturers. The steel market declined by nearly 17 percent, while fiberglass products dropped by 10 percent. The 2009 market is expected to remain weak for both new construction and remodeling and replacement resulting in a 24.4 percent aggregate decline. This decline will likely impact all material types. Conditions are expected to improve in 2010, resulting in a forecasted 18 percent growth over 2009 levels. Shipments for 2010 are expected to remain significantly below recent historic levels of patio door shipments, but mark the beginning of a steady growth trend lasting though at least 2012.

Residential Entry/Interior Doors Steel continues to be the most widely used exterior door material; however, its share of market has fallen to 60 percent of entry doors in 2008. Fiberglass share continues to grow and is anticipated to continue to do so, though at a somewhat slower pace. Wood doors have found a niche in high-end construction which has slowed its loss of market share to fiberglass.

Steel is anticipated to remain the primary material used for entry doors in the nonresidential market, followed by aluminum, including aluminum framed storefront doors, which represent slightly more than one-third of the overall market.

Entry Doors Nonresidential Entry Doors Nonresidential Entry Doors 2008 2012 Forecast Volume = 3.3 Million Units Volume = 2.9 Million Units Nonresidential construction has slowed somewhat in 2008, tempering demand in the nonresidential entry and interior door categories. In 2008, wood sales were flat overall versus 2007, whereas steel volumes declined somewhat, thus increasing wood’s share of the 2008 market. It is important to note that interior passage doors are defined as all door applications within a building or structure, excluding closet/bifold, service, and other special purpose doors. Nonresidential interior doors include both interior passage and closet doors.

Door Shipments and Forecast Weak residential new construction starts in 2008 had a major impact on the residential entry door market and are expected to continue to have a significant impact in 2009. The residential replacement and remodeling market also experienced a decline in 2008, though to a lesser extent than new construction. Unit volume decreased by 18.1 percent to 10.4 million entry door units in 2008. Residential interior and passage doors also showed a decline of 20.9 percent over the past year. Entry and interior doors are expected to decline by approximately 16 and 22 percent respectively in 2009. Nonresidential door volumes have begun to experience a slight decline, decreasing by approximately one percent over 2007 for interior doors. A weakening of nonresidential activity is expected to slow door demand through 2011.

Insulating Glass Usage The use of sealed insulating glass is a standard offering in residential and nonresidential window units with the exception of parts of southern Florida and other regions in the Southwestern U.S. No significant changes in the overall market penetration were seen in either the residential or the nonresidential market over the past year, but share shift continues in the types of spacer products used. Additionally, continued penetration of insulating glass is not expected going forward, but edge seal technologies continue to change to meet higher energy efficiency standards. The use of triple glazing is also expected to continue to grow. Within the residential market, non-rigid warm edge spacers continue to gain share against aluminum, as well as rigid warm edge products. The nonresidential market continues to use primarily aluminum spacers, but the use of warm edge products within this market is growing.

Nonresidential Construction Contract awards reflect activity related to new construction and major additions to existing structures. Actual fenestration demand (shipments) for nonresidential building activity typically lags contract awards by up to one year or more. This cycle can shorten or lengthen tremendously depending on the complexity, size of a building, and also when the specific building product is installed during the construction cycle. The 2007 contract award total of 1,424 million square feet was up marginally from 2006 totals due primarily to strength in the manufacturing and warehouse category. This represented slight growth of 0.5 percent over the 2006 total contract awards. In contrast, 2008 contract awards declined significantly by 13.5 percent and this is expected to adversely impact the 2009 nonresidential window market. The Office/Hotel/Institutional category dropped by 4.0 percent in 2008 after a decline of 1.1 percent the prior year. Manufacturing and warehouse contract awards increased by 17.9 percent from 2007 to 2008 after a sharp uptick in growth of 12.2 percent in the previous year. The store and mercantile segment will be the hardest hit, declining by 26.2 percent from 2007 to 2008 after a decline of 3.4 percent from 2006 to 2007. Contract awards are expected to continue this decline in 2009, dropping by an additional 11.3 percent before beginning a gradual uptrend from 2010 through 2012.

Window Usage in Nonresidential Construction The nonresidential glazing continued growing in 2008, largely due to the continued growth of the curtainwall category. The overall market reached 542 million square feet, representing a growth of 1.2 percent over the 2007 total market of 536 million square feet. Curtainwall products grew by 18 percent, while storefront and other site fabricated products declined by 4.4 and 4.2 percent respectively. Shop fabricated windows grew by 2 percent during this time period. Looking forward, the market is forecast to decline by more than previously expected due to the sharp drop in nonresidential contract awards. The overall market is projected to decline by 15 percent in 2009 over 2008 levels. An additional decline of 12.7 percent is also projected for 2010. Due to weakness in office and particularly retail construction, storefront and site fabricated products are forecast to decline by 18.3 and 18.0 percent in 2009. Curtainwall is also set to decline by 16.5 percent after several consecutive years of double digit growth. Shop fabricated, or true architectural, windows are projected to decline by the smallest margin of 5 percent as institutional categories, such as schools and public buildings, are expected to remain the most resilient during the downturn. Growth is expected to resume in 2011 and is forecast to increase by 4.9 percent over 2010 levels. The market is forecast to show a more significant rebound in 2012, which is forecast to grow by 11.2 percent when compared to 2011.
