Dublin, July 24, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “Global Drawer Slides Market – Outlook & Forecast 2024-2029” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The Global Drawer Slides Market was valued at USD 2.6 billion in 2023, and is expected to reach USD 3.51 billion by 2029, rising at a CAGR of 5.13%.
Demand for cabinets globally will be spurred by a strong rebound in residential building construction and design trends promoting more cabinets. Kitchen cabinets continue to claim a large share of square footage in new housing, boosting demand for cabinets as these rooms are the areas of a home where cabinets are most often installed. Additionally, the National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA) reports overall kitchen and bath market forecasts for the latter part of 2023 and into 2024 show cautious optimism regarding sales. Current expectations for NKBA’s US Home Remodeling Index point to a Q2 2023 growth rating of 65.5, compared to the year-over-year ratings of 62 in Q2 2022. Thus supporting the growth of the advanced drawer slides market.
Increasing Demand for Full Extension Drawer Slides
Drawer slides form the backbone of efficient cabinetry; full-extension drawer slides reign supreme among these. Unlike traditional drawer slides, full extension drawer slides provide unparalleled access to the entire drawer’s depth. This means no more rummaging around for items tucked away at the back. Moreover, full extension drawer slides bring many advantages to storage solutions. These slides go beyond mere accessibility; they redefine organization and convenience. By capitalizing on the entire drawer’s depth, drawer slides of the full extension variety amplify storage capacity.
INSIGHTS BY EXTENSION TYPE
The global drawer slides market by extension type is segmented into full extension, over travel, partial extension, and two-way extension. In 2023, the full extension segment dominated the segmental market share. Full extension slides allow drawers to fully extend out of the cabinet, providing easy access to all drawer contents. This makes them highly convenient and user-friendly compared to partial extension or non-extension slides. Also, with space being a premium in modern living and work environments, the ability to fully utilize drawer space is crucial. Full extension slides maximize usable space by extending drawers completely, enabling better organization and storage efficiency.
