Report Overview

The U.S. toilet partition market size was estimated at USD 644.2 million in 2021 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8% from 2022 to 2030. The Texas toilet partition market size was valued at USD 82.07 million in 2021 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.0% from 2022 to 2030. The growth is driven by the increasing development of commercial buildings and renovations in the existing construction. Significant and continual growth in urbanization and the building & construction industry in the country has substantially driven the market for partitioning products for interior applications including rooms, dividers, and toilets. The product growth is expected to accelerate, as it is economical and offers considerable longevity in comparison to conventional solutions.

The coated metal segment accounted for 41.2% market share in 2021 owing to their extensive use in various commercial spaces including public toilets, commercial restrooms, schools, offices, and airports. This segment is followed by plastic sheet partitions that gained popularity on account of their strength and durability.

Technological advancements in the industry have resulted in the production of toilet partitions with scratch & scuff resistance and easy-to-clean & maintain properties. In addition, major market players are focused on the development of new products having high aesthetic values and additional properties such as waterproof, and mildew resistance, among other performance characteristics.

The construction of new retail facilities faced a decline in the recent past owing to switching consumer preference toward online purchasing. The slow growth in the construction of shopping malls and retail centers in the U.S. has slowed down the growth of toilet and restroom constructions in the aforementioned structures. This has resulted in declining demand for toilet partitioning products in the retail industry.
