Market outlook of the floor covering market
The global floor covering market is expected to benefit from a large population of consumers seeking high-quality products. Also, the increasing disposable income, booming housing industry, and growing demand for luxury flooring options are anticipated to contribute to the growth of the market worldwide. Technavio’s market research analyst predicts the global floor covering market to reach a market value of around USD 301 billion by the end of 2019.
However, the vast amount of non-degradable waste that gets generated during the manufacturing of textile floor coverings is expected to pose a challenge to the market growth. For instance, Germany accounts for the highest production of textile floor coverings and is estimated to generate nearly six kilograms of total floor covering (TFC) waste per capita every year. Global concerns about the harmful effects of such waste generation have affected the global floor covering market negatively.
