Overview

Upholstery is the work of providing furniture, particularly seats with springs, padding, fabric or leather covers and webbing. With respect to automobiles, it serves as an integral part of a vehicle’s interior layout.

Dynamic

Shifting consumer preferences for quality upholstery for their vehicles’ interior is a major factor driving market growth. A significant number of consumers tend to spend on the installation of premium upholstery while purchasing a vehicle to make its interior appear attractive. Automotive makers prefer to use fine quality fabrics for the upholstery of a new variant or car model to complement and enhance the vehicle’s features. Owing to this, the revenue of the global upholstery market is expected to grow at a significant rate over the years to come. The rising demand for automobiles in recent years has led to a surge in its production. Purchasing a car has become a necessity and there has been a steady increase in sales over the years. On account of increasing sales of vehicles, the automotive upholstery market is expected to witness significant revenue growth. The demand for premium automotive interiors is gaining traction among consumers with increasing preferences for lightweight automotive materials as well as non-fabric materials for automotive upholstery.

The use of leather upholstery is currently increasing among consumers due to its high durability and resilience. Apart from the utility features, leather upholstery enhances the overall appearance of a car’s interior. Such qualities coupled with consumer preferences are leading OEM and automotive makers to increase the production of leather upholstery and offer the same at reasonable prices in the market. The demand for automotive upholstery is also expected to increase with the rise in the number of passenger vehicles being manufactured.

Segment Analysis:

By Application: The seat covers segment is expected to account for increasing sales and generating higher revenue shares when compared to other segments over the next ten years. This is due to the increasing demand for upholstery material meant for the manufacture of seat covers.

By Material: The synthetic leather segment is expected to continue to account for the majority revenue share when compared to the other material segments. This can be attributed to its easy affordability and the eco-friendly manufacturing processes of synthetic leathers.

Regional Analysis:

The development of automobile sectors in countries such as China, India and South Korea in recent years is a prominent factor that is contributing to the growth of this market in the region. The rising demand for luxury cars in these countries will also subsequently lead to exponential market growth. In addition, China has the largest market for raw materials such as propylene, polyester, and nylon, and is a primary exporter of these raw materials to many countries across the globe for the production of upholstery.
