Dallas, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/07/2014 -- RnRMarketResearch.com adds report "Smart Lighting Markets-2014; V1. Market Drivers and Forecasts" to its store.

NanoMarkets has been covering the smart lighting market for four years and has acquired an understanding of the key markets, technologies and companies in this rapidly expanding business. This year, NanoMarkets has decided to cover this interesting sector in two volumes. Volume I is devoted to an analysis of smart lighting markets and covering the basic drivers and economics of the smart lighting business. Volume II provides coverage of the leading companies, products and technologies that play in the smart lighting market place.

TOC in this report "Smart Lighting Markets-2014; V1. Market Drivers and Forecasts":-

- Executive Summary
- Chapter One: Introduction
- Chapter Two: Smart Lighting: Regional and National Markets
- Chapter Three: Smart Lighting in Business Establishments
- Chapter Four: Smart Lighting in Residential Markets
- Chapter Five: Smart Lighting in Other Markets
- Chapter Six: Summary of Eight-Year Forecast of Smart Lighting Systems Markets

Complete report available @ http://www.rnrmarketresearch.com/smart-lighting-markets-2014-v1-market-drivers-and-forecasts-market-report.html .

Together both volumes identify where and how the new business for smart lighting systems will appear over the next eight years as the developed world replaces its lighting infrastructure with solid-state lighting (SSL), especially LEDs.

While many smart lighting systems can control compact fluorescent lights (CFLs), there is little doubt that the smart lighting products of the future will primarily intended for LED control. This is not just because LEDs are the "lighting of the future," but also because they potentially permit very high levels of control compared with previous generations of lighting. With this in mind, this report examines how the latest control and sensor technologies will impact the development of future smart lighting products.

Many existing smart lighting systems are intended primarily to add to LEDs' already impressive energy efficiency. This makes strategic sense given current concerns about rising real energy prices. However, NanoMarkets believes that with the market becoming crowded, suppliers of smart lighting systems will need to find new ways to differentiate themselves in the market, either by (1) exploring new end user markets such as street lighting or auto lighting, or (2) adding new functionality such as health and mood lighting or even visible light communications (VLC). The latest lighting research indicates that smart lighting can also lead to improved health and mood, while newer technology is showing the way to using smart lighting systems for air quality monitoring and even the delivery of information services.

While smart lighting systems have evolved as standalone products, NanoMarkets notes that, in this Internet-of-Things era, the smart lighting business must be seen as part of a bigger picture. In particular, in this report we discuss the opportunities that are expected to emerge as smart lighting systems increasingly interface with building and home automation products.

Request a sample copy of this report @ http://www.rnrmarketresearch.com/contacts/request-sample?rname=194032 .

In this year's reports, we have considerably extended the report coverage to include analysis beyond the energy-saving features of smart lighting to other business opportunities that the arrival of smart lighting is creating. This is – in particular – the focus of Volume I — But as with NanoMarkets previous report on smart lighting, our 2014 reports show how new value is being created in the lighting market by adding enhanced electronics and intelligent luminaires and how such product strategies will be able to build on the massive trend towards introducing LED lighting.

Also included in Volume II is an analysis of the smart lighting strategies of the firms that NanoMarkets expects to see as major players in the smart lighting space. We examine what the prospects for start-ups are in this space. And in Volume I there is an eight-year market forecast with breakouts by type of product, end user market segment, and the regions/countries where this report will be sold.

Because of our years of coverage in this field, NanoMarkets believes that our 2014 reports provide the best information and analysis available on the current trends in the smart lighting sector. We include a detailed eight-year forecast with breakouts by functionality and type of end user, as well as analyses of product/market strategies being deployed by leading firms in the smart lighting space. We believe that these reports will prove of value to executives throughout the lighting, semiconductor, sensor and networking industries.

Dallas, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/07/2014 -- RnRMarketResearch.com adds report "Silver Inks and Pastes Markets: 2014-2021" to its store.

This is the latest in NanoMarkets' ongoing series of industry analysis reports on silver inks and pastes. In this report we analyze how the changes within the applications for silver inks and pastes have impacted the business and what this means over the coming years.

TOC in this report "Silver Inks and Pastes Markets: 2014-2021":-

- Executive Summary
- Chapter One: Introduction
- Chapter Two: Silver Inks and Pastes - Materials, Processes and Suppliers
- Chapter Three: Photovoltaic Panels: Opportunities and Challenges for Silver Inks and Pastes
- Chapter Four: Displays and Lighting as Markets for Silver Inks and Pastes
- Chapter Five: Opportunities for Silver Inks/Pastes in Sensors
- Chapter Six: Ongoing Opportunities for Silver Pastes in Thick-Film Electronics

Complete report available @ http://www.rnrmarketresearch.com/silver-inks-and-pastes-markets-2014-2021-market-report.html .

On the positive side, the solar panel industry is reviving and is much more oriented toward crystalline silicon (c-Si) panels than before the great solar crash. This is good news for the silver pastes business, because c-Si panels are major consumes of silver. Silver inks and pastes suppliers also have some reason to be hopeful about the likelihood of large OLED lighting and displays panels finally being commercialized, since silver undoubtedly has a role to play in OLED electrodes.

The negatives for the silver inks and pastes business include the fact that plasma televisions and membrane switches, both which have consumed a considerable amount of silver pastes are phasing out and printed electronics is gradually being abandoned as a viable application by many suppliers.

Request a sample copy of this report @ http://www.rnrmarketresearch.com/contacts/request-sample?rname=194029 .

This report also examines the commercial implications for silver inks and paste markets. In this year's report, we place a special emphasis on the replacement of silver by copper in critical applications such as solar panels. We also re-examine the future of silver inks and pastes in the light of the rising Internet-of-Things meme and address whether or not there will there be demand for printed silver used within all those sensors and smart objects. Finally, we take one more look to see if nanosilver inks will ever make it out of the "research material" category.

In this evolving market environment, this report identifies which market opportunities for silver inks and pastes are likely to be the most important over the next decade. And as with other NanoMarkets reports, we also include detailed eight-year forecasts in both volume and value terms, with breakouts by application, type of material and type of printing process used. The report also contains an assessment of the product/market strategies of leading silver inks and pastes firms – both the traditional and the new suppliers that appearing from China and India.

Key highlights

- Due to slow economic growth, the construction industry declined in 2013. According to Statistics Finland, construction companies' turnover declined by 1.9% as compared to 2012, and the value add in the construction industry fell by 2.3% in 2013. In the last quarter of 2013, the turnover of the construction industry declined by 1.5% as compared to the same period of 2012. In the last quarter of 2013, the turnover of specialized construction activities dropped by 2.2%, and building construction decreased by 1.4% over the corresponding period of 2012. However, as a sign of future growth, in the last quarter of 2013 the area covered under building permits reached 8.9 million m2, 13.3% more than in the last quarter of 2012.

- In 2012, the government proposed to increase the standard VAT rate by 1 percentage point. However, according to shopping tourism company Global Blue, tax-free sales in 2013 increased by 27% in Kouvola and 25% in Imatra, as compared to 2012. The growth in tax-free sales in Finland was primarily contributed by the rising number of Russian visitors, and is likely to attract investments in the retail buildings category over the forecast period.

- According to Statistics Finland, net migration in the country increased from 17,433 in 2012 to 18,048 in 2013. Internal migration from rural urban areas will continue to rise, which will increase demand for residential units at growth centers such as Helsinki. According to the YIT Group, Finland's largest residential construction company, the country will need annual production of 24,000–29,000 apartments over the forecast period. However, restrictions in the availability of land for building apartments, and tough energy-efficiency requirements may constrain the housing supply, leading to the construction of smaller, more efficient apartments. With rising migration and changing housing needs, demand for residential units is likely to pick up over the forecast period.

Complete Report Available @ http://www.rnrmarketresearch.com/construction-in-finland-key-trends-and-opportunities-to-2018-market-report.html .

- Finland aims to establish a carbon-neutral society by 2050, and better energy efficiency and increased investment in renewable energy will be needed to achieve this. According to the EU Renewable Energy Directive, the country aims to meet 38% of its total energy consumption through renewable sources by 2020. In its 2013 budget, the government increased energy subsidies to EUR145 million (US$192.2 million), of which EUR100 million (US$132.6 million) is to be allocated to bio-refinery projects, with the remaining amount allocated for renewable energy investments. As a result, the energy infrastructure category is expected to grow over the forecast period.

Complete report available @ http://www.rnrmarketresearch.com/gas-analyzer-sensor-detector-market-by-technologies-electrochemical-infrared-metal-oxide-semiconductor-catalytic-laser-others-by-systems-fixed-portable-by-end-user-industries-glo-market-report.html .

Gas analyzers, sensors and detectors (GASD) are safety devices used in the industrial, commercial, medical and several other industries. Generally, these devices play a major role in providing life safety and to avoid fire break outs by continuously analyzing and monitoring the concentration of gases in different end user industries. Hence, gas analyzers, sensors and detectors are used to measure and monitor the concentration and quantity of a single or multi gas in the mixture of gases, thereby providing adequate safety to life. Based on the working principle technology, the devices can be classified into Electrochemical, Infrared, Catalytic, Zirconia, Paramagnetic, Laser, Metal Oxide Semiconductor (MOS), Photo Ionization Detection (PID) and others. Each technology has its own unique features with respective detection range and application. The demand for GASD devices is influenced by growing awareness of poisonous and combustible gases in the environment and government regulations to provide human safety.

Gas analyzer is an assembly that consists of sensors and display devices, where sensors can detect particulate gases and the detected signal can be displayed on the monitor. Gas analyzers can analyze the physical parameters of particular gases such as pressure, temperature, flow rate, concentration, etc. Basically, sensors and detectors are the same, but the major difference is that a sensor can only sense a gas in the mixture of gases where as a detector can also raise an alarm to the operators in the area to alert them about the leakage or of any other threat. The gas analyzers, sensors and detectors can be either fixed or portable, based on the end user interest. Fixed device is for permanent and continuous analysis, mostly used by big industries where continuous monitoring is the prime factor. Portable devices are used for periodic analysis where rental devices are used.

The global gas analyzers, sensors and detectors market is moderately fragmented, where Honeywell International Inc. (U.S.), Industrial Scientific Corporation (U.S.), Mine Safety Appliances Co. (U.S.), and Dragerwerk AG & Co. KGaA (Germany) captured about 70.0% of the market share in production and supply. The companies in this market need to compete with each other with respect to prices and a wide product range with advanced technology and detectable gases in order to meet market requirements.

Hot Melt Adhesives Market are defined as adhesives that melt and flow on application of heat and solidifies on cooling to give a strong adhesion. HMA are 100% thermoplastic solids at temperatures below 80°C. They are applied in a molten state at temperatures that range from 120°C to 180°C depending on the applications and materials that are to be bonded. Hot melt adhesives form strong mechanical bonds that help them adhere to a wide range of substrates. One of the major advantages of hot melt adhesives is that they deliver cost saving benefits owing to their 100% solid nature; also, the entire volume is used as an adhesive, while other conventional adhesives lose 50% to 70% of their volume when used in an application. Hot melt adhesives can also be created in various forms that include pellets, slugs, and blocks for bulk application, or stick and continuous rope forms for heated gun applicators.

Dallas, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/23/2014 -- RnRMarketResearch.com adds "Construction in Belgium – Key Trends and Opportunities to 2018" & "Construction in Chile – Key Trends and Opportunities to 2018" report to its research database.

Construction in Belgium – Key Trends and Opportunities to 2018

The Belgian construction industry recorded a review-period (2009?2013) compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.97%. As a result of the eurozone crisis, the industry declined by 0.3% in 2009, and by 0.1% in 2013. This, along with falling employment and low wage growth, led to steady falls in domestic economic activity and demand for new construction projects. Construction industry growth is expected to recover over the forecast period (2013-2018), driven by government initiatives to improve public infrastructure, moderate household debt, and rising interest of domestic and foreign developers in constructing residential units to meet housing demand. Consequently, the industry is expected to grow at a moderate forecast-period CAGR of 2.0%.

Complete report Available @ http://www.rnrmarketresearch.com/construction-in-belgium-key-trends-and-opportunities-to-2018-market-report.html .

Key highlights

- The Belgian construction industry is undergoing a testing period as a result of subdued economic activity. The industry recorded negative growth of 0.1% (nominal terms) in 2013, the first time since 2009. The construction production index fell by 0.3% during the first quarter of 2013, although there was marginal growth in the second and third quarters, with the production index growing by 0.1% and 0.6% respectively. The industry is set to grow further, both in 2014 and over the forecast period, due to improved economic conditions, low interest rates and increased investment.

- In nominal terms, the total construction value add in Belgium was EUR19.4 billion (US$25.8 billion) in 2013, after registering a nominal CAGR of 2.35% during the review period. The value add is anticipated to reach EUR21.9 billion (US$30.9 billion) in 2018, and record a nominal forecast-period CAGR of 1.50% over, driven by increases in residential and infrastructure construction activity and government measures to enhance the country's real estate and transport networks.

- The European Investment Bank (EIB), the EU's non-profit long-term lending institution, has announced plans to invest in projects to create both job opportunities and financing solutions, as well as to increase partnerships among public and private firms. In 2013, the EIB allocated EUR1.5 billion (US$2.6 billion), of which 19.0% was for the energy sector, 8.0% for the transport sector, 24.0% for water and sewage, 11.0% for the industrial and agricultural sectors, 15.0% for the education and healthcare sectors, and 23.0% for other small- and medium-scale projects. This is thus likely to support construction activity growth in these areas.

- A growing number of small- and medium-sized Belgian businesses are filing for bankruptcy as a result of rising staff costs and excessive taxation. According to Statistics Belgium, the number of bankrupt businesses in the country in the second half of 2013 rose to 6,006, a 4.5% rise compared to the second half of 2012. On account of the huge costs involved, only large-scale businesses were able to survive, while small companies and independent traders were affected the most in this difficult situation. During the same period, the number of failed businesses rose by 10.3% in the construction industry, by 2.3% in the commerce industry, by 9.5% in the hotel and catering industry, by 5.0% in the transportation industry, and by 3.7% in the industrial sector. This situation was worst in the Brussels region, where the number of bankruptcies rose by 33.0% in 2013.

- According to the Global Property Guide Belgium, residential property prices in the country rose by 0.3% in 2013, after increases of 1.1% in 2012 and 3.5% in 2011. There have been varying trends in property prices in different categories, however with the largest increase in prices recorded in the multi-family housing category, as apartment prices in the country increased by 0.9%. At the same time, the single-family housing category posted a decline in prices, as prices of bungalows and villas decreased by 0.9%. Furthermore, there has been variation in the property prices in regions, if adjusted for inflation; house prices rose in the Flemish region by 3.4% and in the Walloon region by 1.9%, although in Brussels, prices dropped by 1.2%.

Construction in Chile – Key Trends and Opportunities to 2018
The Chilean construction industry recorded a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.79% during the review period (2009?2013). During the review period, and following the 2010 earthquake, growth was supported by a rapid inflow of foreign direct investment (FDI), low unemployment, reconstruction and modernization work. The growth of the construction industry is expected to remain strong over the forecast period (2014?2018), as the government is increasing its efforts to improve the country's infrastructure, meet the rising demand for residential units and increase investment in the mining and retail industries. The construction industry's output is expected to record a CAGR of 8.90% over the forecast period.

Complete report Available @ http://www.rnrmarketresearch.com/construction-in-chile-key-trends-and-opportunities-to-2018-market-report.html .

Key highlights

- The construction industry is likely to expand over the forecast period, as a result of healthy inflows of FDI. According to the Foreign Investment Committee, the country attracted a total of CLP11.1 trillion (US$28.2 billion) in FDI in 2012; an increase of 63.0% over 2011. The Pacific Alliance, a Latin American trade bloc comprising Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Peru, received CLP1.0 quadrillion (US$2.1 trillion) as total planned investment for the period 2013-2016. Of this total investment, Chile is likely to receive CLP50.2 trillion (US$102.0 billion) FDI over 2013-2016. Continuous investments in the mining industry and infrastructure will also aid growth of the construction industry over the forecast period.

- During the review period, the Chilean construction industry registered a value add CAGR of 11.07% in nominal terms, reaching a value of CLP10.9 trillion (US$22.9 billion) in 2013. Over the forecast period, the construction value added is expected to register a CAGR of 8.49%, to value CLP16.5 trillion (US$34.4 billion) in 2018. Forecast-period growth will depend upon healthy economic growth, increased investments and favorable business conditions.

- Due to the increasing number of people living in residential areas ? longer distances from prime locations ? retailers are focusing on establishing the mini-malls segment. Due to the healthier economic environment, improving consumer confidence has helped to increase the number of investments in the retail sector. According to a Chilean business newspaper, Pulso is planning to invest CLP3.5 trillion (US$7.1 billion) by 2017. Falabella, a Chilean department store retailer, will make the largest investment of CLP2.0 trillion (US$4.0 billion), which will add 527 stores and 51 malls to its retail portfolio. Other retailers such as Cencosud and Parque Arauco will invest CLP590.3 billion (US$1.2 billion) and CLP221.4 billion (US$450.0 million) respectively. Such developments in the retail sector will support the retail buildings category over the forecast period.

- The residential construction market will be fueled further by projects such as: the Vitacura Cumbres del Condor Residential Complex, valued at CLP17.9 billion (US$37.0 million); the Rancagua Portal Machali Housing Complex, worth CLP18.9 billion (US$39.0 million); and the Papudo Residential Units Development project, worth CLP48.6 billion (US$100.0 million). All of these are expected to be completed over the forecast period.

- In 2012, the government passed a new research and development (R&D) law to stimulate R&D investments and establish Chile as a primary innovation hub in Latin America. Under the law, the corporate taxpayer can claim a tax credit of 35.0% on all R&D projects, with the remaining 65% being tax-deductible in any sector. The law also tripled the maximum amount of tax credit that companies can claim to CLP583.8 billion (US$1.2 million) per year. Over the forecast period, growth in the research facilities category will be supported by the government's efforts to promote R&D activities.
