The rising urbanization is anticipated to drive the growth of the artificial turf market in the future. Urbanization refers to the trend of an increasing percentage of the population moving from rural areas to urban centers, resulting in the growth and expansion of cities. This trend is fueled by factors such as economic opportunities, enhanced living standards, better access to services and infrastructure, and the pursuit of an improved quality of life in urban settings. As urbanization progresses, there is a growing need for artificial turf to meet the demand for green spaces and recreational areas in densely populated urban environments where maintaining natural grass can be challenging. For example, a report from the World Bank, a US-based international organization, indicated that in 2022, over 50% of the global population lived in urban areas. This figure is expected to rise to 6 billion by 2045, representing a 1.5-fold increase. Additionally, by 2030, the world is projected to see an increase of 1.2 million km² in urban built-up area, with urban land consumption expanding at a rate up to 50% faster than population growth. Thus, the increasing urbanization is a key factor driving the growth of the artificial turf market.

This sector involves the construction, renovation, or development of homes and housing structures for individuals or families.

Additionally, the number of privately owned home completions in May 2023 stood at 1,518,000 on a seasonally adjusted yearly basis, indicating a 5% increase over the May 2022 rate of 1,446,000 and a 9.5% rise above the revised April 2023 estimate of 1,386,000. This robust growth in the residential construction sector serves as a key driver for the artificial turf market.
