North America Ceiling Tiles Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Product (Mineral Wool, Metal, Gypsum), By End-use (Non-Residential, Residential), By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2022 - 2030

Report Overview

The North America ceiling tiles market size reached USD 1.97 billion in 2021. It is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1% from 2022 to 2030. The increase in the construction of residential and commercial buildings in the region remains the primary growth driver. The need for the upgradation of existing buildings and structures in the region is expected to open significant opportunities for growth in both residential and commercial construction applications. Increasing population and rapid urbanization & industrialization in emerging economies continue to push governments to increase infrastructure spending. This, in turn, is anticipated to fuel the demand in various construction applications over the forecast period.

The U.S. accounted for the largest revenue share of the ceiling tiles market in North America. This growth is attributed to the flourishing construction industry in the country. States such as New York, California, Ohio, and Texas are fast-growing markets for commercial real estate. Also, with rapid urbanization, the need for commercial spaces, including offices, showrooms, rental apartments, and retail outlets continues to increase rapidly. This remains the key trigger for the demand for ceiling tiles in the market.

Product Insights

Over the forecast period, it is anticipated that the rising use of natural materials will drive the mineral wool segment. Mineral wool is made from natural rock materials, including slag and ceramics. These are economical alternatives to various forms of other materials. The super-performing attributes of mineral wool, such as thermal insulation, sound absorption ability, asbestos-free, enhanced light reflectance, lightweight property, and higher recyclability have increased the use of mineral wool in commercial and residential construction.

Gypsum ceiling tiles remain in high demand from consumers, thanks to their key properties including sound isolation and fire resistance. The gypsum ceiling tiles product segment of the market also continues to grow. Its lightweight structure, easy-to-maintain and repairable nature and widespread availability of diverse designs remain important drivers of growth.

The wood ceiling tiles remain popular in diverse applications including corporate buildings, hospitals, education, airports, and residential buildings. The product incurs relatively higher costs coupled with a longer time for installations. In addition, design varieties remain limited, limiting the growth potential for the wood ceiling segment.

The ceiling tiles manufactured with plastic possess water-resistant properties which aids in maintaining the appearance as well as the structural quality of the tile. In addition, the product also delivers various essential benefits including resistance to corrosion; anti-fungal, termite-proof, and easily cleanable properties. These are expected to increase the application of plastic ceiling tiles in end-use industries. Hence, this segment is expected to grow at a considerable rate.

End-use Insights

The growth of the ceiling tiles market in North America is attributed to its extended use in the non-residential sector. The non-residential end-use segment led the market in 2021. It continues to grow due to growing investments in the construction of commercial spaces. These include office complexes, institutional buildings, hospitals, transportation, retail stores, bars, and clubs.

The growth in the population and migration of people from villages to cities has increased the need for commercial construction. The development of spaces like offices and hospitals is also responsible for the increased demand for modernization of infrastructure. These factors remain primary drivers for the growth of the North America ceiling tiles market.

The residential application segment accounted for a significant total industry share in 2021. Growing population, rising disposable income, and urbanization remain key factors anticipated to propel the growth of the residential application segment of North America ceilings tiles market. Materials such as mineral wool and metals are generally suited for residential applications. The residential buildings consist of apartments, single-family, and multi-family units.

The decline in mortgage rates in North America is expected to contribute to the growth of residential construction. This is expected to result in significant demand for ceiling tiles in the region. Furthermore, the rising disposable income, and changing preferences in housing interiors and exteriors are expected to contribute to the demand for ceiling tiles over the forecast period.

The increasing demand for green building materials for construction in North American countries is expected to result in demand for lightweight and environmentally friendly ceiling tiles. Moreover, stringent VOC policies and regulations over building materials are anticipated to increase the usage of low-VOC ceiling tiles. These remain key in order to reduce the VOC emissions from the building material, and new constructs such as adhesive-free bio-based suspended ceiling tiles promise new opportunities in the arena of sustainable growth.

Regional Insights

The ceiling tiles market in North America is expected to witness significant growth over the coming years on account of the increasing construction of residential and commercial buildings in the region. The need for the upgradation of existing buildings and structures in the region is expected to augment the dependency on ceiling tiles in both residential and commercial constructions.

The U.S. accounted for the largest revenue share in 2021, attributed to the flourishing construction industry in the country.
