Icreasing use of customized and aesthetically appealing decking solutions are some of the factors expected to drive Plastic Decking market revenue growth
Vancouver, Jan. 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global plastic decking market size was USD 4.79 Billion in 2022 and is expected to register a revenue CAGR of 10.7% during the forecast period. Rising demand for modern constructions such as outdoor living spaces and backyard renovations, rapid industrialization and urbanization across the globe, growing adoption of sustainable and eco-friendly decking materials, and increasing use of customized and aesthetically appealing decking solutions are some of the factors expected to drive market revenue growth.
Increasing demand for modern constructions in recent years is driving revenue growth of the market. The increasing preference for outdoor living and recreational spaces, coupled with the growing need for storing renewable energy, is driving the global demand for contemporary constructions. This demand is primarily fueled by the need for flooring, decks, and rooftops in the construction industry.
The global construction industry's revenue is expected to experience consistent growth in the upcoming years, with a projected size exceeding double its 2020 figure by 2030. In 2020, the construction market reached a valuation of USD 6.4 trillion, and forecasts suggest it will expand to 14.4 trillion by the year 2030. Most of this demand will be driven by residential use in construction industries, particularly in buildings. Plastic decking, known for its exceptional durability and low maintenance properties, emerges as an indispensable material in the production of furniture.
Consequently, manufacturers in the plastic decking market are witnessing a substantial uptick in orders and sales volumes, as they play a pivotal role in meeting the burgeoning demand for innovative products. On October 18, 2022, Huttig Building Products, a Woodgrain Company and a well-recognized distributor of furniture, building materials, and wood products, established a fresh distribution collaboration with Fiberon, a prominent manufacturer of composite wood decking and railings. This partnership, aimed at supporting Fiberon's ongoing expansion in the outdoor living sector, substantially broadens the company's distribution network through Huttig in the Southeastern United States.
However, the volatile costs of raw materials and availability of substitutes of plastic decking pose a significant barrier to market revenue growth. The complex and resource-intensive production process involves recycled material, plastic and wood fibers, all of which contribute to higher operational expenses. To make decks more durable and long-lasting it takes lot of time and skills. Stringent quality control measures further increase production costs. These elevated overheads lead to pricing difficulties. This prompts potential buyers to explore more cost-effective alternatives, which is restraining revenue growth of the market.
Segment Insights
Resin Type Insights:
On the basis of resin type, the global plastic decking market is segmented into polyvinyl chloride, high-density polyethylene, low-density polyethylene and polypropylene. Polyvinyl chloride segment accounted for largest revenue share in the global plastic decking market in 2022 due to the rising demand for this segment in buildings, transport and electricals. PVC is durable and chemical resistant which provides easy to work in materials in construction and manufacturing. In addition, plastic decking is resistant to corrosion and provides a stable platform for construction units, safeguarding against degradation over time. Its low maintenance and water resistance also enhance the quality for use in wet environments.
Composite Insights:
On the basis of composite, the global plastic decking market is segmented into capped and uncapped plastic decking. Capped segment accounted for largest revenue share in the global plastic decking market in 2022 due to rising demand to use this technology to produce modern living areas. Capped plastic decking offers the potential for increased production yields and versatility, making it an attractive option for manufacturers seeking both economic and environmental advantages. In addition, capped technology allows for easy installations, resulting in ease of assembly and special tools. The inner core of capped composite decking is constructed of recycled plastic and wood.
North America accounted for largest revenue share in 2022 due to the rising demand for outdoor spaces in countries across the region and increasing expenditure on new-age construction especially in U.S. and Canada. In October 2023, construction expenditure in the United States increased by 0.6% compared to the previous month, reaching a seasonally adjusted annual rate of USD 2,027.1 billion. Expenditure on private construction reached a seasonally adjusted annual rate of USD 1,579.3 billion in October, showing a 0.7% increase from the revised September figure of USD 1,567.9 billion. Residential construction in the same period was at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of USD 884.4 billion, indicating a 1.2% rise from the revised September estimate of USD 873.6 billion. The escalating construction expenditure in the United States is playing a vital role in driving revenue growth for the plastic decking market. As construction spending continues to rise, there is a corresponding surge in demand for innovative and durable building materials, such as plastic decking.
Asia Pacific is expected to register a moderately fast revenue growth rate during the forecast period due to the growing construction of recreational areas and infrastructure development in countries across the region, especially in China, Japan, South Korea, and India. The primary products within this category vinyl decking, composite decking, polyethylene decking, polypropylene decking, and PVC decking. In the initial quarter of 2023, China has expedited its infrastructure investment to boost economic growth, initiating over 10,000 projects across the country. Media reports indicate that the total investment for these initiatives amounted to around 7 trillion yuan (USD 1.03 trillion). In addition, the expansion of the manufacturing and construction industries, spurred by heightened expectations and an enhanced quality of life, has played a major role in the emergence of numerous innovative building materials and techniques, such as plastic decking in the region.
