エンジニアードストーンの世界市場-2024-2031年

概要

世界のエンジニアードストーン市場は2023年に233億米ドルに達し、2031年には350億米ドルに達すると予測され、予測期間2024-2031年のCAGRは5.2%で成長します。

カスタマイズ可能なオプションの増加は、近年のエンジニアードストーン業界の重要な特徴の一つとなっています。消費者の目が肥えてきたことで、生産者はさまざまなサイズ、形状、デザインパターンを含む製品範囲を拡大してきました。一部の生産者は工場でのカスタマイズを導入し、工場で作られた世界にひとつだけの石を手に入れることができるようになりました。

欧米の多くの政府保健機関がエンジニアードストーンの使用禁止を真剣に検討していることから、世界市場は大きな衝撃を受ける可能性があります。このような動きは、新興国に有利な需要力学を完全に方向転換させると思われます。市場は、先進国での売上損失から回復するのに何年もかかると思われます。

ダイナミクス

住宅リフォーム率の上昇

ここ数年、住宅リフォーム率は着実に上昇しています。パンデミック（世界的大流行）の影響により、人々はより創造的な仕事にエネルギーを注ぐようになり、住宅改修の人気が高まりました。ハーバード大学住宅センター共同センターのデータによると、米国の住宅改修・改良に対する消費者支出は2022年に4,720億米ドルを超え、2023年にはさらに4,850億米ドルに拡大することが明らかになりました。

住宅改修は、住宅所有者がインテリアを近代化する機会を創出します。世界の住宅不動産市場の変動と一部の欧米市場における新築住宅販売の減少を考慮すると、新しい石材カウンタートップの販売の大部分は、改築中の既存住宅で発生しています。平均築年数が10年を超える新興国市場における住宅リフォーム率の上昇は、予測期間中の市場成長を促進する主な要因となります。

新興市場における新しい住宅改修資材への需要

欧米諸国が健康上の懸念からエンジニアードストーンの使用禁止を検討しているにもかかわらず、新興市場では需要が着実に増加しています。中産階級の可処分所得が増加するにつれて、彼らはより高級な家庭装飾品を求めるようになります。さらに、多くの新興諸国は安全衛生規制が緩いため、欧米諸国の禁止措置の影響を受けていないです。

大手ブランドは、売上の大半が新興国市場への輸出になると予測しています。韓国のエンジニアードストーンメーカー、現代L&Cは2024年3月の投資家向け説明会で、中国とインドで急拡大する計画を発表しました。同社はまた、輸出売上が収益の40％を占め、10年後までには50％以上に増加することを明らかにしました。

高まる健康被害への懸念

科学者たちがエンジニアードストーンの健康被害について最初に懸念を抱くようになったのは、2015年から2019年にかけて住宅設備工事従事者の間で珪肺症やその他の肺疾患が繰り返し発生したことがきっかけでした。2023年7月、包括的な調査の後、オーストラリアのアデレード大学公衆衛生研究所のチャンドニー・ラムキスン博士は、エンジニアードストーンの販売と生産を完全に禁止する公式勧告をSafe Work Australiaに提示しました。

ラムキスン博士の調査によると、これらの石を研削、切断、研磨する際に、シリコン以外にもスチレンなど多くの有害物質が発生することが判明しました。2024年4月、米国ロサンゼルス市議会は、市の建設工事からエンジニアードストーンを禁止することについて公聴会を開いた。健康被害がますます深刻になっていることを受け、エンジニアードストーン市場は今後、困難な成長期を迎えることになりそうです。

Overview

Global Engineered Stone Market reached US$ 23.3 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 35.0 billion by 2031, growing with a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period 2024-2031.

An increase in customizable options has become one of the key hallmarks of the engineered stone industry in recent years. With consumers becoming more discerning, producers have expanded their product range to include various sizes, shapes and design patterns. Some producers have also introduced factory customization, which allows people to get unique, one-of-a-kind stones made in the factory.

With many western government health agencies seriously contemplating banning the usage of engineered stones, the global market could receive a major jolt. Such a move will completely reorient demand dynamics in favor of emerging countries. The market will take many years to recover from the loss of sales in developed countries.

Dynamics

Rising Rates of Home Renovations

Home improvement rates have steadily increased over the past few years. Home improvements become more popular during the pandemic lockdowns as people channeled their energies to more creative tasks. The Joint Center for Housing Centers of Harvard University's data revealed that consumer spending on home renovations and improvements in U.S. topped US$ 472 billion in 2022 and further grew to US$ 485 billion in 2023.

Home renovations create opportunities for home owners to modernize their interiors. Given the volatility in global residential real estate market and decline in new home sales in some western markets, the majority of new stone countertop sales are occurring in existing homes during renovations. Rising rates of home renovations in developed markets, where the average house age is more than 10 years, will be a key factor in driving market growth over the forecast period.

Demands for New Home Improvement Materials in Emerging Markets

Even as western countries are contemplating ban on engineered stones due to health concerns; demand has steadily increased in emerging markets. As the disposable incomes of middle class increases, they demand more premium home decor options. Furthermore, many developing countries have lax health and safety regulations and hence remained unaffected by bans in western countries.

Large brands are projecting that majority of sales will be derived from exports to emerging markets. During an investors call in March 2024, Hyundai L&C, a South Korean manufacturer of engineered stones, announced plans to expand rapidly in China and India. The company also revealed that export sales accounted for 40% of their revenue and will rise over 50% by the end of the decade.

Growing Concerns About Health Hazards

Scientists first became concerned about the health hazards of engineered stones following repeated outbreaks of silicosis and other lung diseases among home fitting workers between 2015 and 2019. In July 2023, following a comprehensive study, Dr, Chandnee Ramkissoon, from University of Adelaide Institute of Public Health in Australia, presented an official recommendation to Safe Work Australia to completely ban the sale and production of engineered stones.

Dr. Ramkisson's research found that apart from silicon, many other toxic substances such as styrene were generated by the grinding, cutting and polishing of these stones. In April 2024, members of the LA city council in U.S. commissioned a hearing about the banning engineered stones from the city's construction work. Following increasingly serious evidence of health hazards, the engineered stone market is poised for a period of difficult growth in the future.

Segment Analysis

The global engineered stone market is segmented based on type, application and region.

Block and Slabs Continue to Remain Popular With Consumers

Blocks and slabs continue to remain the favorite choice of consumers, given the fact that they are mostly used for increasing the aesthetical value of kitchen countertops. With more people undertaking home renovations, companies have responded by expanding their range of customizable slab designs to provide better choice for consumers.

Engineered stone tiles have relatively fewer demand from consumers, since it is mainly used for bathroom, walls and floor decoration. The higher material and installation costs means that it is relegated to high-income consumers. Despite this, many stone manufacturers are actively introducing new design patterns and customizations.

Geographical Penetration

North America to Garner the Largest Market Share

Given the large concentration of high-income households in U.S., North America continues to be the largest market for engineered stone. For many of the world's largest stone manufacturers, North America remains the top export destination. The growth in demand is coming not just from new home construction, but also renovation and upgradation of existing homes. Producers are focusing their attention towards the higher end of the market, by launching new luxury designs for countertops.

However, in the coming years, the North America market could witness a major downturn in sales, following backlash from the medical community about its health hazards. U.S. researchers have found that silicosis from exposure to engineered stone dust happens much faster and affects people quicker. The U.S. state of California's Occupational Safety & Health Standards Board approved emergency regulations in December 2023 which prohibit the dry cutting of engineered stones. The measures were approved to stall rising cases of silicosis among industrial workers in the state.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The COVID-19 pandemic created many challenges for the global engineered stone market. The supply of quartz was jeopardized due to lockdowns restrictions. Even as some mines remained open, production stagnated due to labor shortages. Many producers had to rely on existing inventory to keep production going.

The difficult economic conditions brought forth by the pandemic led to the bankruptcy of many small and medium players in the market. The pandemic has led to the consolidation of the global market in favor of established players. One unintended side effect of this has been the reduction of price volatility in the market.

The initial months of the post-pandemic period witnessed an explosion of pent-up demand for engineered stones. Many people had taken up home renovation projects during the lockdown months and hence spend liberally on acquiring new decor. The post-pandemic period was highly beneficial for the global market.

Russia-Ukraine War Impact Analysis

The engineered stone market in Russia was completely disrupted in the months following the start of the war in Ukraine. As western countries imposed sanctions on Russia, the imports of engineered stones dried up. Many distributors raised prices on their existing stock due to the anticipated shortfall in supply.

Many local distributors were forced to import stones from China to fulfill domestic demand. However, many consumers found out that the Chinese stones lacked the quality and finish of western manufacturers. A few months into the war, the supply of western-made stones was restored through international grey markets.
