Window Coverings to Remain an Essential Component in Interior Décor
Home décor trends evolve with time, only a few things remain constant over the years. For instance, replacing window and door components continues to be a quintessential method of decking up interiors.
Window coverings are considered integral to any home or commercial structure. They provide access to light and air and in many cases can improve the overall appearance of the property.
Beyond these functionalities, both interior designers and consumers realize that these components play a crucial role in improving the overall energy efficiency of the room. Driven by ongoing trends, manufacturers are designing improved and more energy-efficient versions of window coverings.
FMI has observed typically high demand for natural materials among consumers. Humble cotton and wood designs are dominating the affordable category. In the luxury section, there is surging demand for motorized blinds and shades such as automated honeycomb shades.
Smart Window Coverings Espousing Energy Efficiency
2019 saw a plethora of trends come and go, but a few, venturing out of the box, have stayed around. These trends will not only dazzle consumers in 2020 but according to FMI, will remain key trendsetters in the future.
For instance, the ever-rising demand for convenience is spurring sales of high-tech window treatments. Modern consumers want beautiful décor for their homes and offices. They are also looking at better convenience without compromising on energy efficiency.
When it comes to the dominant trend in window treatments, consumers are eager to see more automated options. Therefore, smart window coverings and motorized blinds and shades will witness high demand.
Connecting motorized blinds and shades to smart home hub can help reduce energy consumption. Some of these blinds are programmed to react automatically to changes in temperature and sunlight.
Consequently, these blinds can independently close during the hottest part of the day, causing lesser pressure on consumers’ HVAC system. Besides this, some of the smart coverings come with moisture and water resistance.
Smart windows are generation-next technologies aimed at reducing solar heat gain. These windows are available in three types – electrochromic, photochromic, and thermochromic.
Of these, electrochromic smart windows use lower voltage and consumes lesser energy. The thermochromic windows are designed to change properties as per the ambient temperature.
With manufacturers introducing more features to improve energy efficiency, smart window covering might have an edge over its contemporaries.
Customization Holds the Key to Success
Consumer choices are dynamic as are their aesthetic sensibilities. Considering the array of channels they are exposed to, each one of them might have different requirements for window coverings.
Manufacturers have therefore started offering customization solutions to attract more consumers. They offer unique design, besides conforming to measurements as per specific consumer requirements.
Professional seamstresses are hired to ensure their designs are compatible with a consumer’s aesthetic sensibility. They are given choice of materials, designs and patterns, and functionalities.
An increasing number of consumers are keen on following the ongoing trends of interior décor. Companies operating in the market therefore ensure to tweak designs as per their liking.
These companies offer customization on various fronts such as custom drapes for highlighting a room’s architecture, custom valances, cornices and other treatments including decorative rods and hardware, and customizing the shade of color chosen to complement interior décor.
High-tech and Innovative Blinds and Shades to Rule Prevailing Home Décor Trends
Hardware used in window coverings is expected to undergo robust advances. Sales of curtain and drapery hardware are poised to surge driven by consumers’ willingness to spend on high-tech products with ornamental features.
Concurrently, suppliers of high-tech blinds and shades will benefit from the increasing adoption of smart home technologies. FMI believes that their rising penetration in the household sector, will in turn enable the window coverings market gain momentum in the coming years.
Motorized blinds and shades have become one of the most exciting additions in device-activated homes. Advanced window treatments via smart phones, remote access, Alexa or Google Assistants are in vogue.
The high cost, however, is the biggest downside to the technology. Nonetheless, there are several affordable options available in the market.
For instance, cordless lift styles are particularly designed as an affordable mean to improve blind safety. These window treatments are not only easy to use but offer child safety especially if they are used for decorating nurseries.
FMI projects the sales of blinds and shades to surge in the coming years, subsequently enabling growth in the global window coverings market. By the end of 2030, the market’s valuation is forecast to reach US$ 30 Bn.
Availability of Substitutes and Counterfeit Products Eating Away Profit Margins
Window coverings are available in wide-ranging prices. Despite the availability of inexpensive options, exposure to low cost substitutes is curtailing their sales.
Some of the local players have mastered the art of counterfeiting international designs in window coverings. Such companies not only have a large market but are slowly eating away into the market share of some of the leading players.
Nonetheless, with an increasing number of consumers favoring authentic designs, scales are likely to tip in favor of the window coverings market in the coming years.
