The global automatic mahjong table market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 5.6% during the forecast period. As a high-end entertainment product, the automatic mahjong table has entered people's lives due to its comfort, health, and fairness. An automatic mahjong table works by using magnetism. It is commonly played by four players (with some three-player variations found in parts of China, Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia). The game and its regional variants are widely played throughout East and Southeast Asia and have also become popular in Western countries. The growing investment by top market players in R&D and the adoption of AI and IoT technologies has led to the rapid growth of the automatic mahjong table market across the globe. However, volatility in the cost of the parts used for designing automatic mahjong tables is the key factor that may hamper the market growth. Every manufacturer of automatic mahjong tables uses similar but different parts. 

Most manufacturers just assemble the automatic mahjong tables. They purchase parts from different factories and assemble them. Some purchase broken machines from the larger assemblers at a great discount and repair them at a lower cost which is the fact the demand for new tables is low in the market. In addition, manufacturers operating in the automatic mahjong table market must have ISO certification, which most automatic mahjong manufacturers do not follow. This affects the overall quality of the product, hence impacting the market growth. 

Segmental Outlook  

The global automatic mahjong table market is segmented based on type and application. Based on type, the market is sub-segmented into plastic, wood, aluminum, and others. Based on type, the plastic automatic mahjong table segment is going to hold the highest market size in 2021. The availability of various plastic automatic mahjong tables in the market drives segment growth. Manufacturing of automatic mahjong tables with plastic material reduces its overall cost when compared to other materials such as wood, and aluminum. This is the major reason companies operating in the market are focusing on manufacturing cost-effective automatic mahjong tables using plastic material. Whereas aluminum is likely to be the fastest-growing segment owing to the adoption of aluminum for making fordable automatic mahjong tables by manufacturers in the market. Based on application, the market is further sub-categorized into residential and commercial.
