Residential Sector to Offer Attractive Opportunities

·         In terms of demand, the residential segment dominated the global wood flooring market. This trend is likely to continue during the forecast period too. Wood flooring is largely used in the residential sector to enhance aesthetic appeal. Wood flooring offers a rich look to the home interiors.

·         Wood flooring is made from organic material. It is non-electromagnetic in nature; therefore, it attracts less dust. Hence, wood flooring is widely used in residences for the safety of infants and children, and can last a lifetime.

Risk of Substitution Coupled with Potential Health Hazards to Hamper Market

·         The availability of various substitutes such as ceramic tiles, carpets and rugs, laminates, and cork flooring for wood flooring products is expected to act as a major restraining factor for the global wood flooring market during the forecast period. Costs involved in the production of wood flooring are higher than those of other types of flooring. This is expected to hamper the demand for wood flooring in the near future.

·         Substitutes for wood flooring include:

o    Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring: Currently, this is one of the most innovative flooring products available in the marketplace. Luxury vinyl planks look and feel similar to real hardwood, but are waterproof. Hence, these are suitable for use in areas that have moisture areas, such as kitchens, basements, and powder rooms.

o    Wood-look Tiles: These tiles are widely used in kitchens, entryways, mudrooms, bathrooms, and basements. They are especially popular in countries with warm climates, as they keep the spaces cooler. However, in cold climate, they can be cold for the feet. Hence, these tiles are usually installed in smaller areas or over radiant heat.

o    Laminate Flooring: Laminate floors are less expensive than hardwood. Laminates can be installed easily on the top of tile or concrete flooring.

o    Bamboo Flooring: Bamboo flooring is an alternative for hardwood flooring. It is often misclassified as hardwood, but bamboo is actually a type of grass. Bamboo flooring is less expensive than solid hardwood. It is engineered and glued together. Due to this, it acts similar to engineered wood, and can be glued directly to concrete floors, which makes it highly versatile.

o    Cork Flooring: Cork flooring has excellent insulation and sound absorption properties, and it is also eco-friendly.
