All these reasons make APAC a dominant participant in the global market for fire doors.
   
• In various types of fire doors, wood fire doors are most sought after. They are commonly used as they possess the best safety, affordability, and design functionality. Timber doors are fire-resistant and can be styled to suit contemporary interiors, hence a hit with homes and offices. They are cheaper compared to steel or glass fire doors, hence perfect for cost-sensitive markets such as APAC and Latin America.
   
• In addition, wood doors can be easily produced and customized, and this will be in response to demand for new construction and remodeling. Moreover, fire-retardant paint and composite wood products are also improving, and the doors are becoming more dependable and adhering to strict safety codes in most locations.
   

Fire Door Market Trends

• Sustainability is gaining speed in the fire door industry. The manufacturers are designing green fire doors according to green building codes such as LEED, BREEAM, and WELL. These fire doors consist of sustainable products like sustainably sourced wood, recyclable steel, and low-emitting composite materials. Furthermore, the adhesives and coatings are being redesigned so that they minimize the amount of toxic chemicals used, thus enhancing the indoor air quality. This is most evident in Europe due to the presence of tough environmental laws, but it is also increasingly on the rise in North America and the Asia-Pacific.
   

Governments are also making important contributions to fuel this shift. For instance, the European Union Green Deal has the vision of having Europe climate-neutral by 2050, compelling industries to be sustainable. In the US, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been encouraging sustainable building materials to minimize carbon footprints. They also demand greener options, and architects and constructors prefer fire doors that are environmentally friendly and durable.

Since governments and corporations are keen on net-zero buildings, eco-friendly fire doors will see increasing demand. Companies that innovate using recyclable materials and lower production emissions will become market leaders in this transformative market.
 

• Fire doors with passive safety devices used to be the norm, but no more. While networked systems and smart buildings get their time in the sun, fire doors are becoming intelligent and responsive to safety. Today’s fire doors are equipped with sensors, automatic closing devices, and wireless interfaces. These allow them to integrate with building management systems so that door status can be monitored remotely, close automatically in the event of an emergency, and alert residents and emergency services.
   

The systems are also available for facility managers to use in predictive repair, remote monitoring of wear and tears, and safe compliance on time.
This is just one specific trend that is of utmost importance in structures such as skyscrapers, hospitals, airports, and big commercial buildings that have thousands of consumers relying on effective evacuation systems. In America alone, statistics from the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) indicated that in 2022, there were over 1.3 million fires that resulted in property loss totaling $15.9 billion. All of these figures suggest the need for sophisticated fire protection solutions.
 

Additionally, the increasing North American and European regulations are promoting the use of smart fire doors. As the cost of IoT technology is decreasing, new markets within the Asia-Pacific region are also following suit. Smart fire doors will be integral parts of megaproject infrastructure in 2030 as part of the global transition towards smart cities and safe urban areas.
 

• Fire doors are no longer safe but also stylish. Stylish new fire doors mix fashion with fire resistance, and they are now sought after for homes and offices. Trendy designs like designer timber finishes, glass fire doors, and hybrid materials are now available from fire door firms that are not only trendy but safe. Finishing, colorable, and frameable are new terms describing characteristics, particularly for high-end hotels, shopping malls, corporate buildings, and luxury apartments.
   

Interior designers, architects, and builders who focus on treating fire doors as part of building design emphasize this requirement. Fire glass doors present natural sources of illumination with fuel security, in coherence with retail shops and offices. Finished wood fire doors are required in institutions and hotels where security and appearance are a priority. Spending on building construction of commercial buildings reached $92 billion up to 2023, the U.S. Census Bureau reported, and that indicates there's greater demand for higher-looking materials.
 

Due to ongoing urbanization, more individuals are relocating to high-end residential and mixed-use towers where they want security features without compromising appearance. Advances in fire-resistant materials and glass are making it thinner, lighter, and less stiff fire doors. Customs, design-oriented fire door market will expand manifold in 2024-2030, particularly in the European market and the Asia-Pacific region, where appearance is most emphasized in building construction of buildings. Not only does the trend make fire doors practical items, but it also makes them beautiful in new buildings.
