Automotive Flooring Global Market Report 2024

The automotive flooring market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.25 billion in 2023 to $1.32 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.1%. During the historical period, growth in the automotive flooring sector can be attributed to several factors, including innovations in materials used, a focus on safety and comfort aspects, attention to design and aesthetics, considerations for environmental sustainability, and the influence of global economic trends driving market dynamics.

The automotive flooring market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.6 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9%. Anticipated growth in the forecast period is expected to be driven by several factors, including the transition towards electric vehicles (EVs), increased emphasis on autonomous vehicles, market globalization aligned with regional preferences, growing concerns about sustainability and the environment, and the evolving lifestyles and preferences of consumers. Major trends projected in this period encompass the influence of consumer behavior on market directions, a heightened focus on environmental sustainability, an emphasis on aesthetic design and luxury features, increased attention to comfort and ergonomics, as well as innovative developments in material technologies within the automotive flooring sector.

The anticipated rise in vehicle production and sales is poised to drive the expansion of the automotive flooring market in the foreseeable future. Vehicle production and sales encompass the manufacturing process and availability of vehicles for purchase in the market. This surge in production and sales is predominantly attributed to factors such as population growth, increased incomes, evolving consumer preferences, and government policies, contributing to a heightened demand for automotive flooring as it plays a pivotal role in enhancing the vehicle's interior. Notably, in May 2022, the International Energy Agency (IEA), an autonomous intergovernmental organization based in France, reported a global increase in electric car sales in 2021, with China experiencing a threefold surge in car sales to 3.3 million, constituting half of the global vehicle demand. As a result, the escalating production and sales of vehicles are expected to be a driving force behind the growth of the automotive flooring market.

The automotive flooring market is poised for growth due to the rising emphasis on fuel efficiency in vehicles. Fuel efficiency measures how effectively a vehicle utilizes gasoline to cover a specific distance, often expressed as miles per gallon (MPG) for traditional fuel cars or miles per kilowatt-hour (miles/kWh) for electric vehicles. Achieving optimal fuel efficiency involves maintaining a balance between speed and sustainability, avoiding aggressive acceleration and braking, and ensuring the vehicle operates in the appropriate gear for the given speed. In August 2023, LendingTree, a US-based online lending marketplace, reported a substantial 101.5% growth in the average fuel economy of all cars over the past three decades, increasing from 13.1 to 26.4 mpg. Cars experienced an even more significant improvement, with a 146.7% increase in fuel economy during the same period, rising from 13.5 to 33.3 mpg. This underscores the growing significance of fuel efficiency, thereby driving the automotive flooring market.

Technological advancement stands out as a prominent trend gaining traction in the automotive flooring market, with major industry players directing their efforts towards providing cutting-edge products to fortify their market position. A case in point is Autenuem, a Switzerland-based automotive supplier, which, in November 2021, introduced a groundbreaking technology named Flexi-Loft. This innovative technology leverages a combination of functional fibers and recycled cotton to create a felt-based material, offering a flexible and sustainable solution for automotive carpets. Not only does this technology contribute to a reduction in overall weight, but it also enhances adaptability, reflecting the industry's commitment to embracing advanced technologies for improved automotive flooring solutions.
