ABSTRACT FOR THE CATALINA REPORT ON WOOD AND LAMINATE FLOORING
SUMMARY OF MAJOR FINDINGS
Wood flooring regained share of U.S. floor coverings sales during 2023. Wood flooring gained share as this sector increased price competitiveness. Wood flooring pricing became more competitive as hardwood lumber prices declined for domestic manufacturers and average import prices weakened by mid-year. U.S. manufacturers are taking share from foreign-sourced products despite import price weakness. Foreign-sourced products primarily lost share in the engineered wood flooring lines. In the first half of 2023, sourcing collapsed from China and other Asian manufacturers. Meanwhile, engineered wood flooring manufacturers introduced more waterproof products to better compete with LVT flooring. Laminate flooring manufacturers are making similar efforts. Laminate flooring, however, has been losing share this year since laminate flooring pricing became less competitive with LVT as import prices strengthened. This enabled U.S. manufacturers to take share from foreign- sourced products as output from new U.S. laminate flooring production capacity improved pricing for domestic manufacturers.
WOOD AND LAMINATE FLOORING MARKET TRENDS
Catalina Research uncovered these trends in our annual report on the U.S. wood and laminate flooring market. The report covers U.S. sales in dollars and square feet. Catalina has calculated wood and laminate flooring’s position in the U.S. floor coverings and hard surface flooring industries. Catalina also conducted a comparative analysis of wood and laminate flooring prices. Wood flooring market data is segmented for solid and engineered product lines. The report consists of 35 pages of summaries and 54 data tables.
SOURCE OF SUPPLY- WOOD AND LAMINATE FLOORING
Separate sections evaluate U.S. shipments and imports. Import shipments are tracked by country of origin. As part of our analysis, Catalina calculated U.S. sales by country of origin. There is also pricing trends by country of origin, as well as insurance, freight, and tariff costs of importers. A similar analysis is conducted for solid versus engineered wood flooring. In addition, Catalina reviewed the product strategies of the major competitors including the introduction of water-resistant products.
END-USE MARKETS AND FACTORS AFFECTING DEMAND
Wood and laminate flooring sales are provided for residential and non-residential markets and for new construction and remodeling markets. End-use market trends are correlated with U.S. housing demand, new home construction, homeowner improvement construction spending, non-residential construction spending, mortgage interest rates, and other economic indicators to uncover the factors driving demand and provide insights into the direction of domestic sales in 2023 and beyond.
U.S. WOOD FLOORING EXPORTS
U.S. wood flooring exports are analyzed for solid and engineered products and by major country of destination.
COMPETITIVE ENVIRONMENT AND WOOD FLOORING PLANT PROFIT MARGINS
In addition, Catalina Research examined the cost structure and profitability of U.S. wood flooring plants. Data trends are compiled for material, labor, and capital inputs. Catalina supplemented industry data with sales of leading suppliers. Catalina used this data to calculate leading supplier market shares.
