Market Trends of North America Smart Furniture Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the North America Smart Furniture Market according to our research experts:
Rapid Evolvement in Designs of Smart Furniture
Smart furniture manufacturers are increasingly developing new furniture that facilitate various technologies, such as wireless charging of smartphones, mirror display of time, date & news, as well as sensors deployed in furniture that detect the well-being of the user. Owing to such a factor, employers in offices are increasingly adapting to smart office furniture so as to monitor employee activities, such as how long the employee sits, stands or is away from the desk, and the calories burnt by the employee. Furthermore, many end consumers are increasingly shifting towards smart furniture owing to the multiple transformation facilities provided by the furniture, such as stools transforming from modular sofas just at the press of a button in the user's smartphone, and smart beds that helps to maintain health of the user by keeping a track of the user's heart rate, respiration rate, sleeping posture and others. Such factors are anticipated to drive the growth of the North America smart furniture market during the forecast period.
Increasing Adoption of Smart Products
The commercial sector is witnessing rapid demand for smart furniture, including smart office workstation, director's chairs, sleek chairs, smart office sofa, smart conference tables, and advanced designed cabinets, which is one of the primary factors expected to drive the growth of the smart furniture market. Furthermore, rise in demand for space saving furniture and proliferation of online shopping fuel the growth of the smart furniture market. In addition, increase in disposable income of consumers creates demand for smart furniture products.
However, fluctuation in demand for furniture along with the import and export restrictions and sudden disruption in the supply chain during the COVID-19 pandemic has hampered the growth of the market to some extent. On the other hand, ongoing trend of smart city initiatives and surge in introduction of innovative smart furniture products by market players are anticipated to provide lucrative growth opportunities for the market.
