到 2030 年地膜材料市場預測:按產品、銷售管道、功能、應用和地區進行全球分析Mulching Materials Market Forecasts to 2030 - Global Analysis By Product (Organic Mulching Materials and Inorganic Mulching Materials), Sale Channel, Functionality, Application and By Geography |
根據 Stratistics MRC 的數據,2024 年全球覆蓋材料市場規模為 42.7 億美元,預計在預測期內將以 9.8% 的複合年成長率成長,到 2030 年達到 74.8 億美元。
覆蓋材料是施用於土壤表面以改善土壤品質、保持水分、調節溫度、抑制雜草和改善美觀的物質;這些材料可以是有機的。有機覆蓋物會隨著時間的推移而分解,使土壤富含養分,而無機覆蓋物則不會分解並提供長期覆蓋。
根據美國國家園藝協會的數據,35% 的美國家庭參與家庭或社區花園。
增加園林綠化活動
隨著企業和住宅希望改善戶外區域,對景觀美化解決方案的需求不斷增加。覆蓋產品在草坪和花園中很受歡迎,因為它們可以改善土壤品質和保濕性。這些產品透過減少雜草生長提供了經濟且環保的選擇。都市化帶來的園林綠化服務的擴展進一步增加了對覆蓋的需求。市場成長是由消費者對低維護和美觀景觀的需求所推動的。因此,這一趨勢正在幫助覆蓋材料產業繼續穩定成長。
無機覆蓋物的環境問題
圍繞無機覆蓋物的環境問題使得這些覆蓋物無法生物分解,從而導致長期的環境污染。土壤和水道中塑膠的累積會對生態系統和野生動物產生負面影響。隨著人們對環境問題的認知不斷增強,對永續替代品的需求也不斷增加。政府和組織制定了限制使用非生物分解覆蓋物的法規。這種向環保選擇的轉變正在挑戰傳統的覆蓋做法,並為無機覆蓋物製造商帶來市場不確定性。
生物分解性的覆蓋物創新
生物分解性的覆蓋物會自然分解,減少廢棄物和環境污染。對農業永續性的日益關注正在推動對這些產品的需求。生物分解性的覆蓋物可透過抑制雜草生長和改善保濕來改善土壤健康。與永續性的全球趨勢一致,有機農業也獲得了支持。由於研究和開發,生物分解性的覆蓋物解決方案變得更加經濟實惠且持久。隨著環境責任對農民和消費者變得越來越重要,生物分解性物的市場持續成長。
競爭市場動態
覆蓋材料市場的競爭性市場動態導致利潤率下降,特別是對於無法有效擴大規模的小型企業。當公司專注於降低成本而不是產品差異化時,創新可能會受到抑制。此外,低價、低品質替代品的興起阻礙了高級產品的成長。隨著市場趨於飽和狀態,公司可能面臨在永續性和環境友善性的基礎上實現差異化的挑戰。最後,激烈的競爭可能導致生產過剩,導致庫存失衡和資源浪費。
COVID-19 的影響
COVID-19 大流行嚴重影響了覆蓋材料市場,擾亂了供應鏈並導致生產延誤。製造設施關閉和運輸限制阻礙了原料的供應,影響了成本和交貨時間。此外,關閉期間農業活動減少導致對覆蓋產品的需求減少。然而,疫情後,由於對永續農業方法的日益關注以及對環保材料的需求不斷成長,市場逐漸復甦。
預計現代貿易部門在預測期內將是最大的
透過提供多種產品的便捷獲取,現代貿易部門預計將實現利潤豐厚的成長。大賣場、超級市場、網路平台等零售商為消費者提供便利。他們還提高了人們對覆蓋材料好處的認知並提高了產品的知名度。隨著對永續和環保解決方案的需求不斷增加,現代貿易管道正在推動此類產品的採用。這些商店提供多種覆蓋選項,可滿足不同顧客的需求。這種可近性和有針對性的行銷推動了覆蓋材料市場的成長。
預計園藝作物產業在預測期內複合年成長率最高
由於對永續耕作方法的需求不斷增加,預計園藝作物產業在預測期內將以最高的複合年成長率成長。覆蓋物有助於保持水分、抑制雜草和調節土壤溫度,有利於水果、蔬菜和花卉的生產。有機農業的日益普及正在推動生物分解性覆蓋物的使用,從而推動市場成長。此外,園藝作物需要持續保護免受環境壓力,而覆蓋材料可以提供這一點。隨著世界關注提高作物產量和質量,該行業預計將繼續成長。
在農業部門擴張的推動下,亞太地區預計將在預測期內佔據最大的市場佔有率,特別是在中國、印度和日本等國家。對永續農業方法的需求不斷成長以及對有效水資源管理的需求是這一成長的關鍵驅動力。該地區對有機農業和環保產品的日益關注正在刺激生物分解性覆蓋物的採用。此外,政府支持農業創新和提高土壤健康意識的舉措進一步推動了亞太地區對覆蓋材料的需求。
由於對永續農業實踐和環境友善解決方案的需求不斷成長,預計北美在預測期內的複合年成長率最高。增加對覆蓋益處的了解,例如溫度調節、雜草控制和保濕。此外,美國和加拿大的有機農業實踐正在增加,鼓勵使用生物分解性和環保的覆蓋產品。政府促進永續農業和園林綠化的舉措,以及園藝和家庭園藝產業的成長,正在進一步推動北美市場的發展。
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Mulching Materials Market is accounted for $4.27 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $7.48 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 9.8% during the forecast period. Mulching materials are substances applied to the soil surface to enhance its quality, conserve moisture, regulate temperature, suppress weeds, and improve aesthetics, these materials can be organic. Organic mulches decompose over time, enriching the soil with nutrients, while inorganic mulches provide long-lasting coverage without decomposing.
According to the National Gardening Association, 35% of American households either cultivate their own food at home or participate in community gardens.
Increasing landscaping activities
The need for landscaping solutions is being driven by businesses and homeowners who are concentrating more on improving outdoor areas. Mulching products are popular for lawns and gardens because they enhance soil quality and moisture retention. These products provide an economical and eco-friendly alternative by reducing the growth of weeds. The demand for mulching is being further increased by the expansion of landscaping services brought about by urbanisation. The market's expansion is fuelled by consumer demand for low-maintenance, aesthetically beautiful landscapes. As a result, this trend helps the mulching materials sector continue to grow steadily.
Environmental concerns with inorganic mulches
Environmental concerns surrounding inorganic mulches, these mulches do not biodegrade, leading to long-term environmental pollution. The accumulation of plastic in soils and waterways can harm ecosystems and wildlife. As awareness of environmental issues grows, demand for sustainable alternatives is rising. Governments and organizations are imposing regulations to limit the use of non-biodegradable mulches. This shift towards eco-friendly options challenges traditional mulching practices and creates market uncertainty for inorganic mulch producers.
Innovation in biodegradable mulches
The natural breakdown of the biodegradable alternatives lowers waste and pollution in the environment. The demand for these items is increased by the increased focus on sustainability in agriculture. Biodegradable mulches increase soil health by lowering weed growth and improving moisture retention. In keeping with worldwide trends towards sustainability, they also endorse organic farming methods. Biodegradable mulch solutions are becoming more affordable and long-lasting as a result of research and development. As environmental responsibility becomes more important to farmers and consumers, the market for biodegradable mulches keeps growing.
Competitive market dynamics
Competitive market dynamics in the mulching materials market leads to reduced profit margins, especially for smaller players unable to scale efficiently. Innovation can be stifled as companies focus more on cost-cutting than on product differentiation. Additionally, the rise of low-cost, inferior-quality alternatives hampers the growth of premium products. Companies may face challenges in differentiating themselves based on sustainability or eco-friendliness due to a saturated market. Finally, intense competition can result in overproduction, leading to stock imbalances and wasted resources.
Covid-19 Impact
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the mulching materials market, disrupting supply chains and causing production delays. The closure of manufacturing facilities and transportation restrictions hindered the availability of raw materials, affecting both cost and delivery times. Additionally, reduced agricultural activities during lockdowns led to a decline in demand for mulching products. However, post-pandemic, the market has gradually recovered, driven by an increasing focus on sustainable farming practices and the growing demand for eco-friendly materials.
