This study analyzes the $4.6 billion US decking industry. It presents historical demand data (1996, 2001, 2006) and forecasts for 2011 and 2016 by product (e.g., wood, wood-plastic composite, plastic, metals, nonwood composites), market (e.g., residential buildings, nonresidential buildings, nonbuilding construction) and geographic region.
It also considers market environment factors, details industry structure, evaluates company market share and profiles 35 major players including Georgia-Pacific, Universal Forest Products, Weyerhaeuser, AERT, Louisiana-Pacific, and Royal Group.
The study examines the US market for decking, including decks made from wood, wood-plastic composites, plastics and other materials. Demand for decking is provided by material type, installation method and end use, which includes both new and improvement and repair consumption in residential buildings, nonresidential buildings and nonbuilding construction (e.g., piers, marinas, boardwalks and park walkways). Decking demand is also provided by US region.
The entire report is framed within the decking industry’s economic, technological and market environments. It analyzes products and identifies growth markets. Throughout the study, demand is related to various indicators (e.g., gross domestic product and construction expenditures). The study also places the industry into its international context.
Major manufacturers of decking are profiled, and market share and other key industry competitive variables are discussed.
Methodology
The study encompasses deck boards, rail systems and other built-in decking accessories but the structural components of decking systems (e.g., posts, joists, etc.) are not covered. Other outdoor structures, such as ground-applied decking, deck patios, porches, patios or balconies are also excluded.
The data are provided for decking demand in lineal feet, which is a volume measurement representing a board that is 5/4-inches by 6-inches in dimension. Demand for decking is also provided in current dollars for each of the material types and markets.
Information and data on decking materials were obtained from a variety of primary and secondary sources, including government publications, trade associations (e.g., North American Deck and Railing Association, Composite Fence & Deck Association, Plastic Lumber Trade Association, Southern Forest Products Association), industry participants, online databases and other Freedonia studies. Secondary data and background information were obtained from various trade publications, including Builder, DeckWorld, Home Channel News, Journal of Light Construction, Plastics News, Professional Builder, Professional Deck Builder and Wood Markets Monthly. Corporate annual reports, SEC Form 10-K filings, product catalogs and other company-provided information were used extensively in framing the industry environment and as input for market size assessment.
