Global Countertops


This report forecasts to 2027 global demand for countertops by material, market, and major world region in square meters. Material segments include: solid surface and other cast polymers; natural stone; laminate; engineered stone; porcelain slab and sintered stone; and other materials such as wood, concrete, and stainless steel. Reported markets encompass: residential and nonresidential. Major world regions include North America, Western Europe, Asia/Pacific, and all other regions.

To illustrate historical trends, world, material, market, and regional demand (including material and market segments) are provided for 2012, 2017, and 2022.

A countertop (sometimes referred to as a bench top or work top) is the firm, flat, horizontal work surface on top of a counter, generally at waist level. Countertops are mostly found in kitchens and bathrooms but can be used in any work area. For purposes of this report, edging and backsplashes used in conjunction with countertops are also included.

Integrated sinks are included in demand if they feature functional counter space on either side of the sink (only the counter space itself is included in the countertop estimate – the sink itself is excluded). If the integrated sink only features a small edge or lip, the entire integrated sink is excluded.

Excluded from the scope of this report are recycled materials, including completely recycled materials, partially recycled materials, or reclaimed materials, such as tiles salvaged from other countertop installations (since no new tiles must be produced). Also excluded are materials used as wall coverings. Countertops used in applications other than residential and nonresidential buildings (such as in recreational vehicles, ships, and boats) are also excluded form the cope of this report, as are surfaces installed on tables, rolling utility carts, and other furniture.

For the purposes of this report, all data including countertop demand, pricing, and market share is measured at the materials level. This is a change from prior versions of this report.

Other various topics, including profiles of pertinent leading companies, are covered in this report. A full outline of report items by page is available in the Table of Contents.
