By material type, wood is expected to hold a significant market share due to the growing focus on sustainability
Wood accounts for a significant share of the office furniture market as it is a reliable, low-maintenance, durable, and versatile material. The rising popularity of wooden office furniture can also be attributed to its ability to enhance the aesthetic appeal of the workplace.
The presence of FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) labels assures customers that the wood used in products comes from forests managed sustainably. These forests are conscientiously treated and replenished to avoid harm to ecosystems.
Additionally, the increasing demand for stainless steel office furniture is driven by various factors, including the need for durable and low-maintenance furnishings in modern offices.
Direct sales are expected to dominate the office furniture market share in the coming years
Direct sales are anticipated to hold a significant market share as organised business channels, such as contracts, retailers, showrooms, and importers, have experienced rapid growth. The omnichannel retail approach serves as a complementary business model to access a broader customer base. The expansion of new stores/showrooms, proprietary websites, and global e-commerce platforms is aiding the office furniture market growth.
The sales of office furniture from specialist stores are considerably rising as customers increasingly seek customisability, unique pieces, and personalised shopping experiences. The increasing expansion of specialist stores by key players is further fuelling the segment’s growth.
Due to the growing focus on comfort, the demand for ergonomic office seatings is significantly increasing
The demand for office chairs is supported by the integration of wellness features, such as built-in heating, massage, and ventilation systems. The development of innovative office chairs that promote the physical fitness of employees is boosting the segment’s growth.
The increasing launches of innovative office chairs with enhanced comfort are propelling the office furniture market growth. For instance, in June 2023, Humanscale launched the Path Office Chair, featuring mesh-like fabric upholstery and a counterbalancing mechanism that supports the bodies of users.
Meanwhile, office tables boost work satisfaction, help maintain an organised and clean space, and reduce the risk of back pain. Besides, the development of adjustable tables, the rising popularity of modualarised displays, and the integration of technologies like AI in tables and workstations are likely to favour the office furniture market expansion in the coming years.
Players in the office furniture market are increasing their collaboration, partnership, and research and development activities to gain a competitive edge
