The global resilient flooring market size was valued at USD 4.0 billion in 2017. Rising demand for innovative floor covering solutions on the back of the developing construction sector is expected to be the key driving factor for the growth of the global resilient flooring industry.

               Global Resilient Flooring Market Size and Forecast, 2015-2025 (Million Square Feet) (USD Million)

Polymers used for producing flooring products include wood, cork, natural materials, polymers, engineered wood and adhesives among others. These materials are used as fillers for the top layer and backing material.

The global resilient flooring market has been witnessing tremendous changes in terms of the application of materials. Traditionally, wood and stone were the primary materials used for flooring. At present, resilient floorings such as vinyl, linoleum and rubber are increasingly substituting conventional materials such as cotton, wool, and concrete and, therefore, currently account for a minimal share within the resilient flooring industry.

Vinyl composite tiles (VCT) and vinyl sheets have been used extensively over the past few years and these segments have reached their maturity, in terms of penetration. In 2017, luxury vinyl tiles (LVT) accounted for the XX% of the global resilient flooring market share (by revenue) and are expected to rise significantly in the years to come. LVTs are being widely used as a substitute to VCT and vinyl sheets in kitchen floors, bathrooms, and basements. Fiberglass, linoleum, and other resilient floor products such as cork, rubber, and asphalt depict high growth potential in the global resilient flooring industry owing to growing demand for environment-friendly flooring solutions.

The development of new innovative products and hassle-free installation techniques has driven the flooring demand in the commercial sector. Construction of new commercial buildings on account of the growing information sector globally is bound to drive the global resilient flooring industry. Low maintenance costs have led to an increased penetration of luxury vinyl tiles (LVT) within the commercial flooring sector. This has also resulted in the replacement of vinyl composite tiles (VCT) in the commercial sector application such as back offices, cafeterias, break rooms, and corridors.

Europe and North America are expected to witness sluggish development owing to the slow growth of the construction industry in these regions. Asia Pacific resilient flooring industry is the expected to rise with a fast-paced CAGR exceeding 10% over the forecast period. Increasing government spending on infrastructure development encompassing residential and commercial structures is expected to further catapult the global resilient flooring market size. Moreover, the rise of India, Taiwan, and Mexico as the upcoming manufacturing and IT hubs has resulted in the setup of factories and commercial offices. This has led to the development of new cities or expansion of the old cities and existing structures. This factor is expected to play an important role in developing the floorings market over the coming years.

Middle East is expected to be the most potential construction market in the global resilient flooring market owing to supportive government policies and regulations to boost manufacturing output of automotive, petrochemicals, and pharmaceutical sectors at the domestic level. Middle Eastern countries are continuously witnessing infrastructure development as a step towards reducing economic reliance on upstream sectors such as oil & gas. The growing domestic consumption of specialty polymers and textiles in the Middle East countries on the back of improving demand among household, automotive, FMCG, and healthcare sectors have forced the government to build manufacturing facilities which acts a key factor for the development of the global resilient flooring market.

The global resilient flooring market is highly competitive and key participants are constantly vying to obtain a greater market share by investing in R&D and product innovations. Large, multi-product companies have been acquiring several leading single product manufacturers, transforming the fragmented industry into one dominated by a few mega-suppliers. For instance, over the past five years, Mohawk acquired IVC, Marazzi and Pergo and currently accounts for a hefty share in the global resilient flooring market. Over the past few years, the company has been expanding its market presence through mergers & acquisitions. In January 2015, Mohawk acquired International Flooring Systems, to expand its product portfolio in the luxury vinyl tile and fiberglass sheet vinyl category.
