US demand to grow 4.3%
per year through 2011
US demand for hard surface flooring is
projected to advance 4.3 percent per
annum through 2011 to over 12 billion
square feet. Hard surface flooring is
gaining market share over carpet and
rugs, continuing a trend seen over the
past decade. This tendency is mostly
driven by consumer preferences for highend
products such as laminate, ceramic
tile and engineered wood flooring, as well
as increasing interest and popularity of
natural and environmentally friendly
products such as bamboo, cork and
linoleum flooring.
Product development and innovation in
design and styling, in addition to better
production processes and new manufacturing
technology, will expand hard
surface flooring demand by increasing the
availability and range of products on the
market. Trends toward high-end, luxury
products will help boost value gains,
although market maturity and growth in
demand for lower-priced imports will
moderate price increases.
Laminate flooring to post
the fastest gains
Through 2011, vinyl will continue to be
the leading hard surface floor covering,
despite losing significant share to ceramic
tile and laminate flooring. Vinyl flooring
will, however, continue to benefit from its
low price and large selection of colors
and patterns, which makes it an appealing
alternative especially in the residential
market. But the strongest product category
in terms of growth remains laminate

flooring, which is expected to substantially
increase its share of the hard
surface flooring market and provide the
best opportunities through 2011. This
segment has posted double-digit growth
rates for the past five years and is
expected to continue doing so for at least
the next five. Gains will be driven by the
continuing popularity and increasing
consumer familiarity with the performance
and benefits of laminate flooring.
Moreover, laminate flooring prices are
generally lower compared to the flooring
choices it mimics, such as hardwood.
Nevertheless, consumer interest in highend
flooring products will aid demand for
wood and ceramic tile flooring going
forward, especially as the 45 year-old and
older demographic segment, which
typically has the greatest spending power,
becomes larger.
Nonresidential building
market to grow the fastest
The nonresidential building market is
expected to provide great opportunities
for hard surface flooring, with demand
rising to almost six billion square feet.
Demand for both new and replacement
flooring will see strong growth in all
nonresidential building segments, which
include office and commercial buildings,
institutional buildings, industrial structures
and other nonresidential buildings.
The residential building market will grow
at a slower pace than during the 2001 to
2006 period. Weakness in the singlefamily
housing market will be somewhat
offset by rebounds in multiunit and
manufactured housing. Overall growth in
hard surface flooring demand in this
segment will mostly be supported by
residential repair and replacement
spending. Moderate increases in transportation
equipment production will benefit
demand for hard surface flooring in motor
and recreational vehicles, boats and
aircrafts.
