North America will account for 37% of the global market share growth in 2023. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period.
Stringent worker safety regulations set by organizations like the OSHA, which recommend the use of these, have increased product adoption in North America. This is the key reason for the large share of North America in the global market. However, market growth is driven by countries in Central and South America, such as Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina, with increasing developments in manufacturing and food processing plants. These industries are the key end-users of these mats and are expected to grow substantially during the forecast period.
Anti-static mats, industrial ergonomic floor mats, and industrial entrance floor mats are crucial for maintaining safety and comfort in commercial and industrial settings. These mats provide anti-fatigue properties, reduce the risk of slips and falls, and protect floors from damage, making them essential for a productive and safe work environment. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The incorporation of multiple safety features is notably driving the growth. Market players offer those designed to meet ergonomic needs, leveraging technological innovations to enhance worker comfort and safety. These aim to address various workplace concerns, including electrostatic discharge protection and compliance with regulatory modifications. Consumer preferences for features such as ribbed patterns and chemical-resistant materials drive market demand. Anti-microbial anti-fatigue integrates formulas that resist harmful microorganisms, catering to industries like industrial kitchens where prolonged standing is common. Similarly, oil and grease-resistant products, with their closed-cell foam construction, find applications in food processing plants, ensuring cleanliness and worker comfort.
Furthermore, anti-static and other safety measures, including impact protection and traction, contribute to workplace safety. The market also witnesses trends such as evolving consumer preferences, reflected in strategic collaborations and consolidations among vendors. Factors like rising disposable incomes and urbanization surge further fuel demand, both in residential and non-residential sectors. The versatility of floor mats, including modular systems, caters to industrial ergonomic and entrance needs, as well as those in commercial settings. Overall, these enhance productivity, hygiene, aesthetics, and safety, meeting diverse ergonomic demands in various industries.
Increasing the use of recycled materials is the primary trend in the market. Manufacturers offer a wide range of products made of materials such as rubber and foam. Vendors are offering products made of recycled materials such as recycled rubber from tires and disposed mats.
Recycled materials provide various benefits, including better affordability than synthetic rubber, reduction of waste landfills, and durability and stability. Most manufacturers use recycled materials, which will not only reduce their manufacturing costs but also contribute to their environmental conservation efforts. This will have a positive influence on the market during the forecast period.
Issues with the curling and buckling of mats is the major challenge impeding the market growth. One of the major issues reported by users is curling and buckling. The curling can lead to slipping and tripping, and it affects their efficiency. Curling occurs due to poor elasticity caused by the rupturing of the cell walls. This can also increase the brittleness of these after prolonged use. Edges that are not beveled are more vulnerable to curling and buckling.
Another reason for curling is the improper placement of these on uneven surfaces or unclean floors containing any toxic or hot substances. The curling and buckling can result in trips and falls, which is a challenge in industries that work with chemicals and sharp objects. Those without high-traction backing are more vulnerable to movement, which is another reason for buckling and curling. Thus, manufacturers are focusing on introducing designs with strong bottom gripping with high traction that decreases mat movement and subsequent issues such as curling and buckling.
