Kitchens to Remain the Largest Market for Countertops in North American Countries
The kitchen segment accounted for nearly two-thirds of the demand for countertops products in the region supported by the large residential market. In developed countries, like the United States, Canada, and Mexico, the demand for kitchen countertop markets is witnessing a strong growth due to the rising interest in large kitchens and remodeling kitchens on a regular basis.
The preferred mediums for kitchen countertops are granite stone, porcelain slab, and butcher-block countertops as homeowners are looking up for more natural-looking and aesthetically pleasing surface materials that will add more value to their home and kitchen. Laminates are one of the leading countertop materials preferred by Americans in their kitchens due to their low price points and minimal maintenance requirements.
United States Emerging as a Prime Market for Countertops Due to Increased Construction Activities
The recovery of the US building and construction sectors, including the single-family housing sectors, has increased the consumer preferences for multiple bathrooms and modular kitchen spaces. This, in turn, is expected to propel the consumption of countertops in the United States in the forecast period.
The US housing construction is gaining momentum and there is increasing residential activity in the country which is fueling the demand for luxury kitchen and bathrooms. This is further expected to spur market demand. This increasing number of housing units which include both multi-family and single-family housing completions will further fuel the demand for countertop products in the forecast period.
