The growing consumer awareness of sleep health is expected to drive the growth of the pillow market going forward. Consumer awareness of sleep health refers to individuals' understanding and recognition of the importance of sleep for overall physical, mental, and emotional well-being. This awareness is rising due to increased media coverage and public health campaigns emphasizing the connection between poor sleep and serious health conditions such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. Pillows play an essential role in enhancing consumer awareness of sleep health by directly influencing comfort, posture, and sleep quality, encouraging individuals to better understand and prioritize healthy sleep habits. For example, in May 2024, according to the American Psychiatric Association, a US-based organization, 43% of adults reported feeling more anxious than the previous year, up from 37% in 2023 and 32% in 2022. Adults expressed significant concerns about current events (70%), with the economy (77%), the 2024 U.S. election (73%), and gun violence (69%) ranking among the top sources of anxiety. When identifying factors affecting their mental health, adults most frequently cited stress (53%) and sleep (40%). Therefore, the growing consumer awareness of sleep health is fueling the growth of the pillow market.
