The flooring industry research report provides comprehensive data (region-wise segment analysis), with forecasts and estimates in "USD billion" for the period 2025-2029, as well as historical data from 2019-2023 for the following segments.
The residential segment is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period.
The market is experiencing significant activity and evolving trends as population growth accelerates, particularly in urban areas. With the world's population projected to reach approximately 8.2 billion by November 2024, residential construction is on the rise. Urbanization is driving this trend, as demand for new residential units, especially in high-density regions such as APAC and MEA, increases. Rural-to-urban migration is a major factor fueling this growth, leading to increased investments in multifamily housing projects in urban areas. Easy-to-install flooring techniques, including luxury vinyl, vinyl sheets, and laminate flooring, are gaining popularity due to their cost-effectiveness and versatility.
However, environmental concerns, such as waste emissions from manufacturing operations and construction projects, are becoming increasingly important. The VCT business and other non-resilient flooring options are facing intense competition from resilient flooring alternatives, such as luxury vinyl tile and carpet tiles, which offer better functional value and floor design options. Regulatory frameworks are also impacting the market, with a focus on recyclable materials and sound absorption in commercial flooring applications. Innovative construction methods, such as the use of natural stone, rubber flooring, and artificial turf, are gaining traction in both residential and hospital buildings. Floor insulation and aesthetic appeal are also key considerations in flooring design.
Operational costs, including flooring disposal and floor covering maintenance, are becoming increasingly important factors in the decision-making process for construction projects. As disposable income grows, homeowners and businesses are investing in high-quality flooring options that offer long-term value. The market for flooring systems is expected to remain competitive, with a focus on sustainability, durability, and functionality.
The Residential segment was valued at USD 286.30 billion in 2019 and showed a gradual increase during the forecast period.
APAC is estimated to contribute 52% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period.Technavio's analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period.
The market in APAC is experiencing significant growth due to the increasing residential and commercial construction activities in the region. China, India, and Japan are leading contributors to the market's expansion, with China's economic slowdown notwithstanding. Other Southeast Asian countries, such as Singapore, Hong Kong, Vietnam, and Malaysia, are exhibiting promising potential for rapid growth in the building sector. Government initiatives like China's One Belt One Road Initiative and India's Make in India initiative, along with five-year plans focusing on constructional activities in Malaysia and Vietnam, are driving this growth. Easy-to-install flooring techniques, including luxury vinyl, vinyl sheets, and laminate flooring, are gaining popularity due to their cost-effectiveness and environmental benefits.
However, intense competition among manufacturers and suppliers poses a challenge. Waste emissions from manufacturing operations and construction projects are a concern, necessitating regulatory guidelines and the use of recyclable materials in commercial flooring. Functional value, floor design, and aesthetic appeal are essential factors influencing consumer preferences. Resilient flooring, such as rubber and vinyl, are increasingly being used in hospital buildings and residential buildings for their durability and sound absorption properties. Wood flooring, ceramic tiles, natural stone, and carpet tiles are other popular flooring options. The rising population and disposable income have led to an increase in construction projects, further fueling the demand for flooring systems.
Flooring waste is a significant issue, and floor covering manufacturers are focusing on innovative construction methods and recycling initiatives to address it. Innovative construction techniques, such as the use of artificial turf and floor insulation, are also gaining traction in the market. Regulatory frameworks are becoming stricter, emphasizing the importance of sound absorption and acoustic environments in commercial and residential buildings. Overall, the market in APAC is dynamic and evolving, presenting numerous opportunities for businesses in the sector.
