Contract Floorcovering Market - UK 2008-2012

SUMMARY

AMA Research have published the 5th edition of the report "Contract Floorcoverings Market - UK 2008-2012". The report incorporates original research and provides a comprehensive review of the demand for a range of floorcoverings products in non-domestic applications.

Product areas covered in the report include:

• Carpets - tufted, woven, carpet tiles, etc.
• Vinyl - sheeting and tiles.
• Ceramic Tiles - glazed, unglazed & porcelain.
• Wood/Laminates - solid & engineered wood, laminates.
• Specialist Industrial Flooring - resins, cementitious screeds, etc.
• Others - including linoleum, rubber, natural stone, terrazzo & cork.

In 2007, the contract market for floorcoverings was estimated to be over £1 billion at manufacturers prices. Historically less prone to volatility than the domestic market, contract floorcoverings have continued to exhibit moderate rates of growth over the last 2-3 years. These growth rates have been stimulated by good performance of key end-use sectors such as offices, health and education, but have also been influenced by changing product mix within the total market.

The report analyses overall market trends, mix between products, supply and distribution structures etc, while reviewing the key factors influencing these issues and future prospects for the market.

Areas of particular interest:

• Recent market trends and future prospects up to 2012.
• Continuing good performance by vinyl and increasing importance of carpet tiles.
• Contract woods performed less well and continuing decline of contract broadloom carpets.
• Greater emphasis on "added value" products such as anti-slip, anti-static coatings, etc.
• Detailed review of end use applications - offices, retail, leisure, health, education etc.
