Flooring Adhesives Market Growth & Trends

The global flooring adhesive market size is anticipated to reach USD 7.1 billion by 2027, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., expanding at a CAGR of 5.4% from 2020 to 2027. Demand for resilient flooring materials on account of new constructions and renovation projects are likely to push the product demand.

Resilient floorings are used to enhance the comfort and aesthetics of various applications in living rooms, bedrooms, outdoor floors, and utility spaces. Rubber and cork products are used as protective floorings where heavy and fragile objects are stored, for instance, gym floors are generally made with resilient materials to resist the weights of the instruments.

Increasing consumer inclination toward aesthetically appealing interiors, growing spending capacity of the upper-middle-class population, and improving the standard of living in emerging countries are expected to favor the demand for wooden floors. However, fluctuations in international trade policies may affect the pricing of final products, thus leading to a negative impact on their demand.

Artificial turf or synthetic grass or fake grass flooring materials are majorly used for external flooring applications. The largest share of these materials is consumed by landscaping and sports floorings in the commercial segment. Moreover, these materials are used in lawns, gardens, balconies, and terraces in residential and commercial structures. The rising popularity of outdoor games and government initiatives to promote sports are driving artificial turf demand.

Fluctuation in the raw material prices and establishing a distribution network are the challenges faced by the market competitors. Therefore, major players in the market are likely to witness a degree of forward and backward integration. This is further likely to intensify the market rivalry and, in turn, competition, and thus, making it difficult for new entrants to sustain in the competition.

Research & development activities by multinational players have led to the introduction of advanced flooring products and new techniques for installation, thus making the competitive environment more intense. Furthermore, the penetration of products through an organized retailing network is another factor for the players to sustain in the market competition.
