米国における2011年までの横樋、縦樋市場の見通し

Abstract

US demand to reach $4.2 billion in 2011

Demand for gutter and downspout products is projected to increase 2.7 percent per year to $4.2 billion in 2011. This represents a deceleration from the strong gains posted in the 2001-2006 time frame, reflecting a weakening new housing market and a moderation in high 2006 pricing levels. In addition, demand for gutter guard products will decelerate, but they will remain the fastest growing niche in a largely mature industry. In material terms, aluminum will continue to dominate demand, although plastics will post better growth.

Gutters to remain largest segment

Accounting for 47 percent of total demand in 2006, gutters are the largest value product used in rain-carrying systems. The most basic component of the system, gutters are now dominated by seamless metal products, which have largely displaced preformed sectional products. Aluminum dominates the market due to its low cost, corrosion resistance and easy formability. Steel gutters are used primarily in northern climes, where their improved impact resistance is desired to reduce damage from ice and snow. Copper and wood gutters will remain small volume niche markets, primarily in historical renovations and high-end applications.

Overall, demand for gutters is projected to increase 2.2 percent per year to $1.9 billion in 2011, benefitting from stable gains in residential improvement and repair applications, coupled with returning strength in the albeit smaller new nonresidential market. Advances will be moderated by slower growth in unit prices, as raw material costs stabilize.

Study coverage

It presents historical demand data (1996, 2001 and 2006) plus forecasts for 2011 and 2016 by material, product, market, and region of the US. The study also considers key market environment factors, evaluates company market share and profiles 28 US industry competitors.
