The 2001 North American Contract And Residential Upholstery Market Study
4th Edition
Completed every 4 years, this is a major study of the multi-billion dollar North American Contract, Residential and Outdoor Upholstery Fabric Market. The study was first completed in 1988, 1993, 1997 and now in 2001.
The research, conducted over an 11-month period, documents the changes that have occurred in the industry since the last study was published. The report includes over 740 pages of data, trends and a census of all contract, residential and outdoor upholstery fabric mills in the United States and Canada and over 177 leading contract, residential and outdoor furniture producers.
The study details the current production and consumption of upholstery fabric by specific fiber content, construction and end uses including contract and residential seating fabric, contract panel, drapery, bedspread, wallcovering and cubicle fabrics. Outdoor fabric is comprised of outdoor seating, replacement cushion, umbrella and awning fabric.
Fabric use in residential furniture is described by the major styles: country, contemporary transitional and traditional, in addition to the specific platforms including recliners, motion, occasional chairs, sofa sleepers, and stationary upholstery.
The undertaking, the most comprehensive of its type, covers all fabrics including all man-made fibers as well as all natural fibers and quantifies markets and segments by lineal yards, dollars and pounds of fibers.
The research plan called for the completion of over 700 telephone interviews with mill presidents and plant managers as well as merchandising managers and fabric specialists with the leading mills and furniture manufacturers. In addition, perceptions and reactions to the proposed testing of residential upholstery fabric by the Consumer Product Safety Commission were evaluated in detail in addition to a documenting trends in the adoption of fire code regulations.
The top contract interior design firms & specifiers were also surveyed. Charter subscribers to the study consisted of a prestigious list of North America's leading upholstery mills, fiber producers and furniture producers.
