Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/13/2017 -- Opal glass is opalescent or white – a characteristic achieved by the addition of fluorides. Opalware products are gaining acceptance among consumers in recent times, owing to their massively transitioning lifestyles. Demand for opalware dinnerware and crockery is expected to witness a dramatic surge during the forecast period.

The market for opalware products is majorly driven by the booming hotel industry. Opalware dinnerware and crockery are extensively required in premium hotels. In recent times, hotels falling in the 3 and 4 star category have also been adopting opalware products owing to their aesthetic quality and appealing form. These products are also widely used in premium restaurants. Household applications of opalware products are abundant in developed regions such as North America and Europe. However, demand for them is likely to steadily expand to developing regions such as Asia Pacific during the forecast period. This rising need for these products is primarily fuelled by the changing lifestyles of consumers, which is also backed by their increased purchasing power.

However, the high prices of these products are currently restraining consumers belonging to the middle to low income groups from buying them. These consumers look for cheaper alternatives and make do with them, which is one of the key challenges faced by the market. Furthermore, the durability of their material is another factor impeding their growth. Opalware products are extremely durable, which leads to loss in terms of repeat purchases, which becomes another hindrance for the market. Besides, availability of cheaper alternatives in the market plays a significant role as well. Nonetheless, increased penetration by major companies is anticipated to create suitable opportunities for the opalware dinnerware and crockery market in the future.
