Fencing Market: Restraints

Fluctuating fence prices and unstable economic conditions due to COVID-19 pose threat to market

Raw material costs are fluctuating continuously due to unstable economic conditions all over the world due to pandemic and lockdowns. Metals used in fencing have become more expensive in several parts of the world. When the economy reopened and recovered from the over-a-year-long COVID-19 epidemic, the cost of goods such as aluminum, wood, and others had risen drastically. Economic activity in the global fencing market also slowed as a result of the epidemic.

Fencing Market: Opportunities

Increased use of electric fencing to seal international borders and for agricultural purposes to provide growth opportunities

Electric fence is being used by many military forces throughout the world to deter incursion near international boundaries. Over the disputed border with India, China's military services prefer to lay down spiked electric wires in the Ladakh valley. To safeguard the China-Russia border, Russia's militaries installed an electric fence. As a result, market development is expected to be aided by the increased focus on national security. An electric fence is far more impactful for farm safety since it prohibits wild animals from entering without permission. The industry is expected to grow as farm owners increasingly use electric fences to protect their land from animals in the wild.

Fencing Market: Challenges

High price associated with upgradation & maintenance of electric fences pose a challenge

The high price of upgrades and maintenance associated with replacing traditional electric fences makes it difficult to conduct frequent inspections to ensure optimal performance. Its expansion is hampered by hefty maintenance expenses. Farmers are seeking other solutions, like unmanned stems, to offset the high fixed costs linked with the necessity to deploy barriers over international boundaries, which may stifle market expansion.

Fencing Market: Segmentation Analysis

The global fencing market may be divided into four categories based on material: plastic fences, metal fences, concrete fences, wood fences, and other. Metal fence is by far the most popular material in the worldwide fencing industry. Due to its long-term reliability and low maintenance and repair needs, the plastic fence category is anticipated to rise at the highest pace in the future years. Composite, vinyl, and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) fences are examples of this type.

Based on product, the fence can be divided as temporary and permanent, where the temporary segment is expected to depict a steady rise in the forecast period.

Based on the end-user, the fencing market has been segmented into residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural, and others. Throughout the projection period, residential is expected to be the most popular application category and is likely to rise due to an increase in building and renovation activity. Moreover, increased disposable income combined with increasing consumer attention to home repair activities is anticipated to fuel demand for residential fences over the period.
