Market Overview:
The global dock floats market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for dock floats from residential, commercial, and industrial applications. In addition, the growing demand for composite materials in dock floats is also contributing to the growth of this market. However, fluctuations in raw material prices may restrain the growth of this market during the forecast period. On basis of type, wood is expected to account for a major share of the global dock floats market during 2018-2030 owing to its low cost and easy availability as compared with other types such as metal, plastics & composites, and concrete. On basis of application, residential segment is projected to hold a dominant share in terms of revenue contribution throughoutthe forecast period followed by commercial and industrial segments respectively.
Product Definition:
A dock float is a floating device that is used to support a dock, pier, or other structure in water. Dock floats are often made of foam or plastic and are filled with air to make them buoyant. They can be attached to the structure they are supporting or left free-floating. Dock floats help to keep the structure stable and prevent it from sinking into the water.
Wood:
Wood is one of the important raw materials used in manufacturing dock floats. It is also known as maritime wood or hardwood and comes from decayed trees and plants. The most commonly used species are oak, maple, pine, larch, hemlock and cedar among others.
Metal:
Metal is an alloy of two or more elements, which are usually selected because of their different properties. The most common ones used in dock floats are aluminum and steel. Other metals include copper, zinc, tin and titanium among others. Dock float manufacturers select the metal for a particular application based on factors such as corrosion resistance needed in the environment where it will be installed and aesthetic value that the material provides.
Application Insights:
The commercial application segment accounted for the largest share of more than 60.0% in 2017. The rising number of commercial projects including hotels, restaurants and shopping malls is expected to boost the product demand in this segment over the forecast period. In addition, increasing spending by consumers on entertainment activities is anticipated to propel industry growth over the coming years.
Industrial application was one of the prominent segments accounting for a significant market share in 2017 owing to growing demand from industries such as chemical, paper and pulp among others for logistics solutions including transport vessels, cranes and containers among others. In addition, there has been an increase in investments by governments across various countries towards developing industrial infrastructure which will further augment industry growth over the coming years (read docks market outlook).
Residential applications are expected to witness steady growth due to increasing consumer disposable income coupled with rising real estate prices especially across major economies such as U.K.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region has been witnessing rapid growth in population, especially in China and India, which has led to an increase in demand for residential as well as commercial infrastructure. Moreover, rising disposable income levels are expected to drive the regional market further.
Europe was estimated at USD X billion in 2017 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030 owing high product adoption across countries such as Germany, U.K.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for dock floats from the marine industry as a result of increasing boat sales.
- Growing popularity of recreational boating, which is driving demand for dock floats and other accessories.
- Rising levels of water pollution, which is motivating boat owners to take steps to protect their vessels by using dock floats and other products made from durable materials that can withstand harsh weather conditions and aquatic environments.
- Proliferation of online retailers that are selling dock floats and related accessories at lower prices than traditional brick-and-mortar stores, prompting more consumers to purchase these items online rather than in person.
