Unlocking Opportunities: Flooring Services Procurement Intelligence

The flooring services category is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.2% from 2023 to 2030. The APAC region accounts for the largest category share, while the North American and European region is anticipated to be the fastest-growing region in the forecast period. Increasing demand for flooring services amid the rise in demand for superior, durable, aesthetic, and covering solutions are surging the requirements for flooring services in the category. Factors such as rising construction activities, rapid urbanization, rise in construction spending, and expansion of workspaces and offices are driving the growth of the category. Increasing demand for floor waterproofing with the use of Vinyl flooring combined with WPC (Wood-plastic composites) is further contributing to the category growth.

Advancement in R&D and technology has brought category innovation to develop environmentally sustainable products, easy to install peel-and-stick tiles, and innovative construction solutions. Peel-and-stick vinyl tiles are an excellent solution for quick and durable floor requirements. It replaces the traditional technique to apply tiles upon the flooring and eliminates the additional need for mortar and labors. Companies are demonstrating eco-friendly and health-strategic products by making use of waste materials to create materials for production. In July 2023, Georgia-based company ShawContract developed PVC-free, EcoWorx carpet tile which weighs 40% lesser than traditional carpet tile resulting in increased efficiency for installation and allowing for reduced carbon emission during transportation. It is also certified with Cradle to Cradle at the silver level which means it is made responsibly and is safe to use.  

The category is fragmented, with the major competitors competing for market dominance. Major players are continuously involved in investing their resources in developing novel products for the category. In May 2023, Mannington Commercial, a manufacturer of flooring products, featured 2 styles - Foam and Frost with textual patterns made up of type 6 nylon that can withstand strong wet cleanings backed by the patented Infinity 2 Modular backing. To fulfil customer demand and reach global markets, companies are focusing on increasing their production capacity alongside maintaining environmental sustainability. Mergers and acquisitions help category participants to provide overall flooring services from installation to maintenance and services. For instance, Illinois-based leading flooring installation and interior services company, Diverzify, collaborated with Spectra and ProSpectra, divisions of Shaw Inc. to form the world’s largest independent commercial installation business at major locations in the U.S.

Key cost components incurred by flooring service providers include raw material, labor, tools and equipment, rent and utilities, and licensing and compliance. Major factors that affect the cost of flooring services depend upon the raw material, labor, underlayment, removal-disposal of existing flooring, and additional materials based upon the custom requirements. Costing may fluctuate depending on the flooring type chosen such as ceramic, hardwood, porcelain, vinyl, and others. The average flooring cost of materials includes hardwood (USD 7 to 23), tile (USD 6 to 20), carpet (USD 3.5 to 11), vinyl (USD 3 to 7), laminate (USD 3 to 10), linoleum (USD 3 to 7), bamboo (USD 5 to 15), cork (USD 5 to 12), concrete (USD 2 to 8) per square foot. Labor costs vary based on the flooring installation cost and upon the level of labor chosen, a contractor with a small business may cost less than a contractor from a big-box store. Labor cost ranges between tile (USD 6 to 8), hardwood (USD 3 to 9), and carpet (USD 1 to 3) per square foot. The overall cost depends upon various factors such as geographical locations, nature of work, and material used.

Sourcing of the category involves procurement of materials and import of the products from various countries. India, Iran, and China are the ideal destinations for sourcing ceramic and porcelain tiles. China holds one of the biggest production bases of tiles in the world, holding a significant number of manufacturers producing modern design materials at a fraction of the cost. Chinese tiles are now considered to be at par in competition with Western countries’ production. Guangdong Province in China is the center for tiles manufacturers and construction materials. For instance, Foshan City is home to multiple tile marketplaces with tens of thousands of Chinese merchants and showrooms for manufacturers. China and India have the cheapest source of labor, making them provide flooring services at a reduced cost.

Luke Shaw has signed a new £190,000a-week deal with Manchester United (Getty Images)Jose Mourinho has approved Manchester United’s decision to give Luke Shaw a new contract worth £50 million, according to reports. Last season, the 23-year-old was expected to leave Old Trafford as he struggled to win over Mourinho and secure a regular starting place ahead of Ashley Young. But Shaw has been one of United’s top performers this term and the club’s hierarchy have now decided to award him with a new five-year contract. According to The Sun, Shaw’s £190,000-a-week deal has already been signed and could be announced on Thursday. Jose Mourinho has backed United’s decision to give Shaw a major new contract (AFP/Getty Images)Mourinho and Shaw clashed seven months ago when the United manager substituted the left-back at half-time during their 2-0 win over Brighton in March. According to reports, Shaw is alleged to have asked Mourinho: ‘Why are you always picking on me?’ But Mourinho did not hold back after the game in his criticism of Shaw.

That is what I thought.’ But in a move to salvage his career at Old Trafford, Shaw took Gary Walker, one of United’s strength and conditioning coaches, on a holiday with him to Dubai during pre-season. Shaw’s performances also led to him re-capturing a place in Gareth Southgate’s England squad, although he has missed this international break due to a knock.

Take a recess.

Everything around you right now is telling you to get outside. The sun is shining, birds are chirping, flowers are blooming...spring is finally in the air. We’ve all been cooped up in our homes for what seems like an eternity. Recess ... such a simple idea, but so necessary right now.

Take 20 minutes to simply “do you.”

There’s no better time than right now to get that home garden started. (No, seriously...now is the time!) We all need an escape from everyday stress and there is nothing more gratifying than seeing seeds sprout and picking a freshly ripe tomato from the vine ... and if tomatoes aren’t your thing, grow your own “cocktail” garden with fresh herbs like mint, basil and rosemary. Enjoy fresh cocktails after a long day balancing life and killing it in the (home) office ... you deserve it!

Shower me with color.

This weeks palette is a nod to spring. We’re bringing you lots of color, because color makes us happy.

Shaw Contract Gradation and Maharam Monsoon by Sonnhild Kestler were the jumping off pieces for this palette. We’ve paired them with playful colorways of Shaw Contract Joy Squared, Cast LVT and performance woven LVT, ReThink ... along with Maharam Mela by Sonnhild Kestler and Dots by Paul Smith.

Maharam Digital Projects Screen (Shoreline Debris) by Kevin Appel, brings it all together with bright multi-color dots and playful geometric shapes.

We are here for you, friends ... one day at a time, we will take it in stride, but remember to take time for YOU and get outside too.

Can’t wait to see your #recess selfies!

xoxo

Aften, Hilary + Amber
