Industry Analysis: Raw Material Cost Surge & Supply Trend for Fiberglass Screens

Date: March 25, 2026
Source: Wuqiang County Huili Fiberglass Co., Ltd
The global fiberglass industry has entered a structural upward cycle since early 2026, driven by tight raw material supply, surging energy costs, and strong demand from high-growth sectors. This trend has directly lifted production costs across the insect screen supply chain, bringing rational price adjustments to fiberglass window screen, fly screen, insect mesh, retractable fly mesh and pleated mesh products worldwide.

Key Industry Drivers Behind Cost Increase

  1. Global Fiberglass Supply Shortage

    Major producers have shifted capacity to high-value electronic cloth and new energy materials, compressing the supply of standard fiberglass yarn for screen products. European factories further reduced output due to high natural gas costs, widening the global supply gap.
  2. Cost Factors Keep Rising

    Platinum, industrial chemicals, quartz sand and energy costs have climbed sharply, while logistics and ocean freight expenses remain elevated. These factors form a solid cost support for the whole industry.
  3. Steady Global Demand for Insect Screens

    Demand for fiberglass window screen and fly screen stays robust in construction, home improvement and commercial projects. Customized solutions including retractable fly mesh and pleated mesh also see growing orders, supporting stable market fundamentals.
