CLEVELAND, January 12, 2022 / PRNewswire / – While asphalt shingles will continue to represent the largest share of roofing demand in the United States through 2025, a new analysis from the Freedonia Group predicts that metal products – particularly metal roofing standing seam – will experience above-average demand growth:
- In the residential and commercial markets, metal roofs will benefit from gains due to their superior resistance to severe weather events (especially uplift caused by high winds), long product life and ability to serve as a cold roof.
- In addition, an increasing number of consumers will choose a metal roof because of its advantageous aesthetics, such as its availability in a wide range of colors.
Standing seam roofing will continue to account for the largest share of the demand for metal roofing, supported by its favorable performance properties and its ability to be used as both low slope and high slope roofs. However, metal shingles, split shingles and tile will see the fastest growth in the future, driven by the increasing use of these products in the residential market, as homeowners seek more durable alternatives to shingles. ‘asphalt.
U.S. roofing demand by value will grow nearly 7% through 2025
The Freedonia Group predicts that the US demand for roofing will increase modestly until 2025, when it will total 277.8 million squares. Although demand for roofing increased rapidly in 2021 as housing starts increased and homeowners with the means to do so embark on roofing projects, demand for roofing will moderate from 2022. In addition, average earnings will be slowed by the high base in 2020.
In terms of value, demand for coverage will grow at a faster pace – 6.7% per year for $ 23.1 billion in 2025 – as consumers increasingly opt for products (usually more expensive) that offer superior performance and aesthetic properties, such as laminated asphalt shingles and metal roofing.
