North America Artificial Turf Market Forecast to 2028 - COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis By Material (Polyethylene, Polypropylene, Polyamide, and Others) and Application (Residential, Commercial, and Sport)
The artificial turf market in North America is expected to grow from US$ 600.44 million in 2021 to US$ 862.18 million by 2028. It is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2021 to 2028.
The growth of the construction sector is fueling the demand for artificial turf in various applications. There is a high demand for artificial turf from the residential and commercial application sectors. Due to the various advantages of artificial turf, it has become a valid substitute for lawns in many places. Artificial turfs are used in backyards, edgings, pavers, medians, and poolside areas. In addition, artificial turf surfaces are used to create commercial and residential playgrounds, focusing on children's safety. They are also being produced containing anti-bacterial properties.
Moreover, the product is not exposed to hazardous pesticides and fertilizers, unlike natural grass, making the product children and pet-friendly. Furthermore, artificial turf is increasingly used for airport ground cover. Thus, the construction sector's growth is driving the North America artificial turf market.
Based on material, the North America artificial turf market is segmented into polyethylene, polypropylene, polyamide, and others. The polyethylene segment led the North America artificial turf market in 2020. Polyethylene is the most popular type of plastic used. There are various types of polyethylene with a wide range of densities and are one of the most commonly used materials in the artificial turf industry. Polyethylene is highly resistant to water absorption; it does not keep pet odors and has a good combination of toughness and ductile strength. Polyethylene in its raw form is susceptible to UV degradation; hence, it is always combined with UV stabilizers. It is suitable for a variety of applications. Polyethylene grass is ideal for front and backyard applications, sports, and pets due to a combination of softness, realism, and the lack of moisture absorption.

In addition, the overall disruptions in manufacturing processes and research and development activities restrained new developments in the artificial turf market. However, with the opening of several growth markets in the region, vaccination development, and initiatives taken by various governments to support economic and industrial growth, the demand for artificial turf is anticipated to grow at a positive and steady pace in the coming years.
