The market is set to grow over the next few years due to a wide variety of commercial uses for bamboo products.

Stringent regulations and laws are being implemented to prevent the use of toxic chemicals in the manufacturing of bamboo and other rattan products. This may have negative effects on long-period supply, price, and sales of rattan, and bamboo products. These factors are likely to limit the market growth in the future.

Additionally, the global spread of COVID-19 has had a negative impact on market growth. The nationwide lockdown which prevented the public from moving around and limited the availability of bamboo products in the global market led to a decrease in bamboo product demand.

The Asia Pacific is Asia Pacific’s largest bamboo producer. The pandemic repercussions were felt in India, Indonesia, China, and Vietnam. As the top bamboo product distributor in the world, the strict lockdown, and closure of the borders halted manufacturing operations.

Regional Analysis

The Asia Pacific had the largest revenue share at 68% in 2021 and will see the most growth over the forecast period. To ensure farmers have sustainable income, a number of government policies are promoting bamboo and Rattan cultivation. These new government policies should open up new opportunities for market growth. The Indian Parliament, for instance, passed a bill to remove bamboo from the tree classification. This will create lucrative growth opportunities for small and mid-sized producers who want to make processed bamboo products.
