Market Growth Factors
The demand for sustainable and customized construction materials which are made possible with technological advancements in wood engineering is the major factor driving the engineered wood market worldwide.
Architects and builders favour environmentally friendly solutions more and more which has resulted in increased demand from the residential and commercial sectors. Private sector infrastructure investments in low, and middle, income countries amounted to USD 86 Billion in 2023 according to the World Bank which reflects significant infrastructure development that also increases the use of engineered wood.
Rapid urbanization and the need for affordable housing have become the main drivers of the market growth especially in the U.S. and Asia, Pacific regions. Besides the Emergency Rental Assistance funding of over USD 46 Billion, the U.S. Treasury Department has revealed plans to use USD 7.1 Billion from the American Rescue Plan for affordable housing which clearly shows government supports to increase affordable housing that makes use of engineered wood products.
Besides, the increase in the prices of conventional woods and adoption of the engineered wood in commercial, modular, and prefabricated constructions on a large scale are the factors that drive the market further. The impressive strength, durability, and cost, saving nature of the engineered wood compared to traditional hardwoods increase its attractiveness with the development of genetically engineered poplar trees that are capable of storing more carbon and also have better mechanical properties. All of these factors put the market on a sustainable growth path.
