Playground surface materials market is anticipated to grow at a considerable CAGR of 7.9% during the forecast period. The major factor driving the demand for playground surface materials is the rising demand for the construction of new sports facilities across all geographies. Moreover, upcoming sports events such as 2022-FIFA World Cup, 2023-cricket World Cup, 2023-Asian Games, and 2024-Olympics are anticipated to propel the growth of the playground surface materials market.
Segmental Outlook
The global playground surface materials market is segmented based on its material type, application, and end-user. Based on its material type, the market is segmented into artificial turf, rubber mulch, engineered wood fiber, and others. Based on the application, the market is categorized into the school playground, public playgrounds, stadiums, and others. Further, based on the end-user, the market is segmented into football, hockey, rugby, tennis, multisport, and others. Among the end-user, football is anticipated to hold a prominent market share, while the market for multisport is estimated to witness considerable growth owing to the increased application of playground surface materials for safety measures.
Among the application segment, the stadium sub-segment is anticipated to register significant growth for the forecast period. The growth of the stadium sub-segment is attributed to the factors such as the rising number of national and international sports events and investments made by public and private players for building sports infrastructure. For instance, in January 2022, the Welsh Government invested an additional $5.2 million of capital funding in new sports facilities across Wales. This brings the total capital investment in sport by the Welsh Government in 2022 to more than $15.63 million with projects supported in Wales and a wide range of sports from football, and gymnastics to swimming. Also, in February 2022, China's National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), the country's top economic planner, invested $331 million to build 185 sports venues including sports parks, national fitness centers, and public facilities for outdoor sports, in a bid to provide better infrastructure and services to boost national fitness.
Regional Outlooks
The global playground surface materials market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America). Among these, the Europe regional market is expected to cater to a prominent growth over the forecast period. However, the Asia-Pacific region is projected to experience considerable growth in the playground surface materials market. The growth of the market in the Asia-Pacific region is attributed to the rising focus on the safety of players and ground infrastructure for sports activities in Asia-Pacific.
Global Playground Surface Materials Market Growth by Region, 2022-2028
The North American Region Is Anticipated to Hold a Significant Share in the Market
Among these regions, the North American region is anticipated to account for a significant share of the market during the forecast period. The growth of the playground surface materials market in North America is primarily driven by factors such as the organizing of sports activities across various levels from schools to colleges and the growing expansion of key players in the region which makes the market competitive for players. For instance, in October 2021, Hellas Construction expanded its presence in the upper Midwest by opening another new office in Walworth, Wisconsin. The Wisconsin office will be their 13th location in the Continental US.
Market Players Outlook
The major companies serving the global playground surface materials market include ACT Global Sports, Tarkett S.A., Polytan GmbH, PlayCore, Inc., Tarmac Holdings Limited, Surface America, Inc., Carlisle Polyurethane Systems, Challenger Turf, Inc., and others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers and acquisitions, partnerships, collaborations, funding, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in January 2022, Carlisle Polyurethane Systems introduced its rebranded and expanded intellathane product line. Tough, abrasion-proof, and impact-resistant, intellathane protective elastomeric coatings are engineered to resist cracking, flaking, bubbling, or peeling, creating a virtually impenetrable seal that coats surfaces and preventing denigration from repetitive and devastating impacts, weathering, temperature extremes, and harsh chemical environments.
