The growing hotel industry is notably driving the market growth, although factors such as health issues related to low-quality pillows may impede market growth. 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 growing hotel industry is notably driving market growth. The construction of new hotels has increased the demand for bedding essentials, such as pillows. From 2019 to 2021, the number of hotel rooms increased by 3% globally. In India, the hotel industry grew by approximately 13% in FY 2019-2020. The growth of this industry is attributed to factors such as an increase in disposable income and per capita income.
In Europe, the hotel industry in some countries witnessed significant growth in recent years due to the surge in tourism, with Spain being one of the most visited countries. In the US, the growth of the hotel industry is attributed to factors such as the significant growth of the travel and tourism sector. In 2021, the travel and tourism sector in the US had a year-over-year growth of 35.6%, representing an increase of USD 393 billion. Therefore, the growth of the tourism sector will increase the demand for hotels across the world, which will negatively impact the sales of bedding essentials, such as pillows. Therefore, the growth of the hotel industry is expected to drive the growth of the global pillows market during the forecast period.
The growing online sales of pillows is a key trend influencing the market growth. The rise in retail sales is driven by various factors, such as the increasing adoption of smartphones and a rise in internet penetration globally. The advent of technologically advanced gadgets has encouraged consumers to look for hassle-free shopping. Rapid urbanization and the advent of internet-enabled transaction platforms are further driving the growth of the market.
Consumers across the world are shifting toward convenient shopping, which is fueling the sales of pillows through online channels. Online retailers offer high discounts to attract consumers. They provide a wide range of products with varied prices, quality, and other factors. Therefore, various retailers are offering their products online. This trend is expected to support the growth of the global pillows market during the forecast period.
Health issues related to low-quality pillows may impede market growth. Various low-quality pillows are available in the market. These pillows are harmful to consumers' health, which negatively affects the demand for pillows globally. Back pain is a common health issue and is usually a result of incorrect posture. A low-quality pillow aggravates back pain. Certain pillows disrupt the natural alignment of the spine and cause back and neck pain. Moreover, pillows that are too soft or too hard can strain neck muscles.
Many consumers consider sleeping without pillows beneficial. For instance, sleeping without a pillow helps maintain the natural curvature of the body, which improves spinal health. It also helps in preventing acne and allergies. Therefore, many consumers across the world are avoiding the use of pillows while sleeping. This, in turn, will negatively impact the growth of the global pillows market during the forecast period.
The report includes the adoption lifecycle of the market, covering from the innovator’s stage to the laggard’s stage. It focuses on adoption rates in different regions based on penetration. Furthermore, the report also includes key purchase criteria and drivers of price sensitivity to help companies evaluate and develop their growth strategies.

Consumers are becoming aware of the health benefits offered by different types of pillows. For instance, memory foam pillows enable proper spinal alignment. Cervical pillows are recommended by doctors for people with cervical pains. These pillows are primarily used by people who actively engage in sports activities and other athletes.

This report forecasts the contribution of all the segments to the growth of the market. In addition, we have included the COVID-19 impact and the recovery strategies for each segment.
