Metal Furniture Market 2024

The metal furniture market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $143.67 billion in 2023 to $152.52 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The growth during the historical period can be linked to the development of manufacturing techniques, trends in post-industrial design, economic surges in urban expansion, innovations in metal treatment processes, and the increasing demand for commercial and institutional furniture.

The metal furniture market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $194.74 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period is driven by rising urbanization, heightened construction and real estate activities, an increasing preference for durable and low-maintenance furniture, the growing trend of smart homes, and the popularity of office environments. Key trends expected in the forecast period include advancements in technology, rust-resistant coatings, the use of hybrid materials, the adoption of antimicrobial metal surfaces, and the resurgence of retro-style metal furniture.

The growing number of workplaces is projected to drive the expansion of the metal furniture market. This demand stems from organizations seeking to develop or broaden their operations and increase revenue. As companies grow, they require more employees, leading to a need for additional office space and furniture to accommodate these new workers. For example, a study by Airwallex in November 2022 surveyed 500 UK-based small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and found that in 2023, 70% plan to expand into foreign markets. Of those surveyed, 64% will target Europe and North America, while 34% aim to enter the Middle East, Latin America, Africa, and Asia Pacific. Thus, the rise in workplaces is set to boost the metal furniture market.

Key players in the metal furniture market are innovating with products such as fossil-free steel furniture to mitigate carbon emissions and environmental impacts. This type of furniture is crafted from steel produced through renewable energy sources and sustainable methods, eliminating reliance on fossil fuels during manufacturing. For instance, in June 2023, Vestre, a Norwegian furniture manufacturer, and Emma Olbers Design, a Swedish design firm, introduced the Tellus bench, made entirely from 100% fossil-free steel. This sustainable material is produced by SSAB using green hydrogen instead of coal, resulting in zero carbon emissions during production. The Tellus bench marks a significant achievement as the first piece of furniture made wholly from this sustainable steel, reflecting Vestre's commitment to sustainability with an aim to reduce its overall carbon footprint by around 60%. The bench features a classic design suited for public spaces such as parks and includes wide armrests for added comfort and functionality.
