Textile Floorings Market Overview
Textile Floorings Market size is expected to reach a value of US$210
billion by the end of the year 2027 after growing at a CAGR of 6.4% during the
forecast period from 2022-2027. Textile flooring is a new type of traditional
flooring that includes carpet tile or broadloom carpet with textured patterns
or a unique design. Textile flooring is a versatile material and a particularly
strong solution for hospitals, higher education facilities, and gyms. Thus, the
increase in demand for textile floorings is widely used in automobiles and
buildings & construction due to unique characteristics such as static control, energy
consideration, and recyclable which is one of the major
factors driving the textile floorings industry growth. Textile floorings such
as carpets or velvet carpeting and rugs are made of natural (plant or
animal-based) and synthetic fibre (polyester). Carpets are used for the interior of cars as a seat cover and help to reduce vehicle weight which is
creating an opportunity for the textile flooring industry growth.
Textile floorings offer long-lasting durability, heat resistance, non-slip flooring, and resistant to abrasion, soiling,
and fading caused by sunlight which makes them ideal for various end-use
industries such as building & construction which, in turn, is driving the textile
floorings market.
COVID-19 impact
With the Covid-19
pandemic taking a toll on businesses across the globe, the textile flooring
market also faced challenges during the year 2020 and 2021. The
operations activities of the buildings & construction market were closed
which may hamper the market growth. Textile floorings are widely used in
buildings, hotels, sports centers, and cars for the seat cover. But in
lockdown, the total infrastructure and production activities were held which is
creating a restraint for the market.
According to the American Institute of Architects (AIA), construction spending on office
buildings declined by over 9%, hotels investment declined by 20%, and amusement
and recreation centers were down almost 13% in January 2021. According to the
India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), construction sectors shrunk by 50.3% in
Q1 2020. Therefore, India requires investment worth Rs 50 trillion (US$ 777.73
billion) in infrastructure by 2022 to have sustainable growth. However, the global textile floorings market size was
hugely affected which is limiting the market growth.

Synthetic-based
held the largest share of more than 35% in the textile floorings market in the
year 2021. Synthetic fiber is hypoallergenic and more resilient than natural
fibers. Synthetic fibers such as nylon (66% in all carpets), acrylics (15%), polyester (>15%), and
polypropylene (>5%) are used to make carpet yarns. Synthetic
materials such as polypropylene robustly resist mold, mildew, stains, shedding,
and water which makes them an ideal solution for outdoor carpets, rugs, and
mats. Polypropylene
rugs are abrasion resistant, mildew resistant, UV-resistant, quick-drying, and
durable, thus it is the ideal solution for decorating kitchens, living rooms,
entryways, and other heavy traffic areas. Polypropylene carpet & mats are best suited for light to medium commercial
applications. Thus, growing development for flooring purposes is expected
to foster the demand for synthetic fibers which, in turn, is estimated to
market growth.

In September 2020, Mitsubishi Estate Co. announced that it plans to finish work on Japan's tallest building 390 meters with 63 floors in a redeveloped district near Tokyo Station in the fiscal year 2027. This will further drive the textile flooring industry.
Increasing Demand from Automotive Industry
Textile floorings are widely used in the automotive industry to reduce vehicle weight for cutting down CO2 emissions and achieving better fuel efficiency. Textiles have also come up with a solution such as tire reinforcement, acoustics protection, gas, and air filtration. Thus, textile floorings are used in the interior of cars such as seat cover, air ducts, timing belts, air filters, non-woven for engine sound isolation which have increased the number of textiles in an automobile. According to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA), global vehicle production increased by 21.08 million in January-march 2021 compared to 18.03 million in January-March 2020. According to the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), the Indian Government expects the automotive sector to attract US$ 8 billion to US$10 billion in local and foreign investments by 2023.

Textile Floorings Market Challenges
Carpet Floorings more Expensive as compared to Luxury Vinyl Floorings
Carpet
textile flooring is widely used in buildings and vehicles. But during installation, the costs
of carpet tiles are more than luxury vinyl floors. Luxury vinyl floorings are
easier to clean, nonporous, and can withstand high traffic well as compared to
carpet tiles. Thus, it is becoming a preferred alternative to carpet floorings.
The cost of carpet tiles is on average US$3 to US$4 per square foot which is the tent
to be increased to US$4.50 to US$ 5.50 per square foot during installation. And
the installation cost of luxury vinyl is US$2- US$5 per square. Hence, the cost
of luxury vinyl flooring is less expensive compared to carpet floorings. This is one of the major challenges
faced by the textile floorings industry.
