Report Scope and Market Segmentation

Market Definition

Artificial turf is a man-made surface made from synthetic fibers like nylon, polyethylene, polyamides, and polypropylene. Artificial turf is similar to natural grass. Artificial turf is used in areas that require a grass surface, such as sports fields and playgrounds. Artificial turfs have a long lifespan and have a low environmental impact because they are recyclable. These turfs are low-maintenance, eco-friendly, and long-lasting. Artificial turfs are also used in the leisure and landscaping industries. Such turfs are simple to replace and maintain, and they do not require the use of harmful pesticides and fertilizers that are required for natural grass cultivation.

Artificial Turf Flooring Materials Market Dynamics

This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:

Drivers

• Burgeoning Demand of Artificial Turf Flooring

Artificial turf is increasingly being used in these infrastructures for a variety of purposes, including decorating balconies, swimming pools, and rooftops. As a result of the ongoing expansion in the hospitality industry, the market for artificial turfs is expected to grow steadily. The growing number of hotels, restaurants, and airports around the world is expected to fuel the market. The market is expected to be driven by the increasing popularity of sports events for games such as football, cricket, hockey, golf, and others and upcoming global sports events. As a result, the market will benefit from an increase in the number of international sporting events, such as football and cricket matches, among others.

The increasing population and rapid urbanization will further propel the growth rate of artificial turf flooring materials market. Additionally, the growing interest in outdoor sports and a shift away from traditional grass fields and synthetic grass fields are driving market growth.

Opportunities

• Emergence of Customized, Environment-friendly and Cost-effective Materials

Furthermore, the emergence of customized and recyclable products extend profitable opportunities to the market players in the forecast period of 2022 to 2029. Additionally, the industry players are increasingly emphasizing the use of cost-effective manufacturing techniques and biodegradable materials such as polylactic acid (PLA) fiber type to develop eco-efficient solutions, which will further expand the future growth of the artificial turf flooring materials market.

Restraints/Challenges

• High Costs and Heavy Investments

 The artificial turf is basically made out of pliable polyprene, which is very costly and thus raises the overall cost of the product. The high cost of turf is a major market constraint. Moreover, the artificial turf also requires significant investments. The installation and final product costs a lot of money and thus reduces overall demand. Although, the product is affordable to many developed stadiums. Small stadiums, on the other hand, may find it prohibitively expensive. The product's rising cost in recent years may have slowed adoption. Additionally, the presence of low-cost alternatives will also restrict the growth in the forecast period.

• Stringent Regulations and Technical Limitations

The artificial turf is made from petroleum-based products and plastics. As a result, the production of this product causes environmental damage. Another environmental impact is using it as a replacement for natural grass. As a result of these factors, production is subject to stringent regulations. Because of these strict government regulations, the production rate is decreasing. These market rules may have an impact on market expansion and development during the forecast period. Another market restraint is the product's technical limitations. All of these challenges will impede growth during the forecast period.

COVID-19 Impact on Artificial Turf Flooring Materials Market

The recent outbreak of coronavirus had a negative impact on the artificial turf flooring materials market. Production activities have ceased due to the pandemic. The market's demand and supply rates have been declining since 2020. Because of the lockdown, there has been a decrease in outdoor activity, which has reduced demand for artificial grass. Furthermore, the disruption in end-user sector operations has indirectly reduced demand for artificial grass.

However, there is some room for expansion in many stadiums. Moreover, many people are interested in designing their homes during this time period. Customers are being enticed to buy artificial turf for their lawns and balconies as a result of this trend. There is a high demand for artificial turf on online purchasing platforms during this time. Therefore, the demand for the market is expected to rise over the forecast period.

Recent Development

• In February 2021, SYNLawn, North America's largest manufacturer and unrivalled artificial grass innovator, announced new product enhancements and offerings. Its products include higher soy content, improved drainage, more colour options, and Super Yarn technology.
