Engineered Stone Market Research, 2031
The global engineered stone market was valued at $21.1 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $35.1 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2022 to 2031.
An engineered stone is also known by the term of agglomerated stone that are made of resin binder, quartz, quartzite, colors and additive. On Earth's surface, an engineered stone is typically available in the form of quartz, a silicate crystal that contains silicon oxide. Engineered stones are highly resistant to heat and abrasion as well as are extremely robust, and are therefore extensively used in fireplaces. Engineered stones are resistant to growth of bacteria and contribute to the maintenance of a hygienic environment.
Rapid expansion in the construction and building industries is boosting the global demand for manufactured stone. Engineered stones are appropriate for use in hospital kitchen, cafeterias, and commercial buildings, due to their impermeable and long-lasting characteristics. Engineered stones can be manufactured in huge sizes, and their impermeable nature enables them to be utilized in wet areas such as bathrooms, swimming pools, showers, and bathtubs and others. Engineered stones may be used in a large variety of applications, hence boosting the growth and demand on the global market. However, the engineered stones are vulnerable to discoloration by chemical products, cleaning chemicals, acids, oil, and others. In contrast, a stone known as Stonemark maintains its stainless surface even after being exposed to chemical products, oil, or cleaning solutions, etc. This stone is infused with a water-based stain-resistance solution to serve as a substitute for it. This acts as a restraining factor for engineered stone market. Some engineered stone items, such as porcelain sinks, liquor bottles, wine bottles, beer bottles, and perfume bottles, include up to 70 % recyclable material, allowing for recycling and reuse. In addition, attractiveness and durability of engineered stone boost its usage in works of art, which is projected to create lucrative growth opportunities in the global engineered stone market.
The engineered stone market is segmented on the basis of product, application and region. Depending on product, the market is categorized blocks, slabs, and tiles. On the basis of application, the market is categorized into countertops, flooring and others. On the basis of region, the market is studied across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
The blocks and slabs segment accounted for the largest share i.e., 95.47% and is projected as the fastest growing segment, by around 5.3% CAGR during the forecast period, due to increased demand for blocks and slabs from construction industry.
The countertops segment accounted for the largest share i.e., 80.80%. Countertops segment is the fastest growing segment, growing around 5.2% CAGR during the forecast period. This is due to increased demand for countertops products in kitchen.
Asia-Pacific contributed 40.48% market share in 2021 and is projected to grow at CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period. Owing to the increased demand from construction industry.
