Global Peat Market Size, Trends & Analysis - Forecasts to 2027 By Type (Coco Peat, Sod Peat and Other Types), By Material Type (Fibric, Hemic, Sapric and Other Types), By Application (Agriculture & Greenhouse, Energy & Fuel, Indoor Gardening and Lawn & Landscaping), By Region (North America, Asia Pacific, CSA, Europe, and the Middle East and Africa), Company Market Share Analysis, and Competitor Analysis
The global peat market is projected to grow at a CAGR value of 17.5% during the forecast period of 2022 to 2027.
Often seen as the first step in the geological formation of other fossil fuels like coal; peat, also known as turf, is an organic matter composed of an accumulation of decayed vegetation that is also used as a fuel. It includes several plants like shrubs, mosses and sedges, among other alternatives. Resembling the colour and texture of soil, peat is found in wet, acidic conditioned areas like wetlands or mires. Due to its rich organic properties that provide great moisture and aeration to the soil, peat has a wide range of uses. It is dried for use in say, gardening, agricultural sector, energy generation, among other things.
The market will be driven during the forecast period by a rising adoption rate of bio-based fuels due to an increase in general environmental degradation from the use of harmful non-renewable energy sources like fossil fuels and its awareness. Peat is classified as a slow renewable source of energy, and the rapid development in bio-based peat products provides more growth potential for this fuel. Thus, there is a general growing demand for natural and organic energy sources across various industries.
Furthermore, the adoption of bio-based fuels along with a rapid rise in industrialisation across the globe also boosts the growth of this market. Rising population worldwide accompanied by various government implemented policies and investments primarily in developing countries has increased the demand for general infrastructure expansion has driven up the need for peat. This is particularly used for the growing demand for electricity generation. Peat is also used across other diverse purposes like in water filtration systems, freshwater aquariums, and agricultural purposes among others.
Apart from the above market drivers, the market is also facing some restraints. Despite being organic in nature, peat lacks nutrients that foster plant growth. It also emits greenhouse gases that can affect environmental degradation.
The COVID-19 pandemic has, like most other markets, brought some disruptions to the global peat market as well. This has been in the form of changes in consumer demand due to general change in purchasing power and government interventions to restore normalcy in markets. Primarily the pandemic has impacted the market in ways of disrupting and rerouting of global supply chains due to strict lockdowns and restrictions imposed everywhere.
Based on the type, the global peat market is divided into coco peat, sod peat and other types. The coco peat is expected to be the fastest-growing segment in the market from 2022 to 2027.
Coco peat is a mixture of dust and fibre from coconut husks and for its long water retaining capacity, it is used as a resource for soil less gardening. It is increasingly being used as an alternative in growing non-terrestrial plants mainly in an urban house set up where place constraint can be an issue.
Based on the material type, the global peat market is divided into Fibric, Hemic, Sapric and other types. The hemic segment is expected to be the fastest-growing segment in the market from 2022 to 2027. This segment is majorly used in production of fertilizers, and hence has its dominance in the market.
As per the application segmentation, the market is divided into agriculture & greenhouse, energy & fuel, indoor gardening and lawn & landscaping.
The agriculture segment holds the highest market share of peat usage in the market during the forecast period. Due to its great water retention capacities and organic nature, it prevents excess water from destroying plant roots leading it to be used majorly in the agricultural sector. The fastest growing segment is the gardening and horticulture segment. It is needed mostly in urban set ups for indoor and soil-less gardening.
As per the geographical analysis, the global peat market can be classified into North America (the United States, Canada, and Mexico), Asia Pacific (India, China, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, and the Rest of Asia Pacific), Europe (Germany, United Kingdom, Italy, France, Spain, Netherlands, and Rest of Europe), Middle East & Africa (Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, and Rest of the Middle East & Africa) and Central & South America (Brazil, Argentina, and Rest of Central and South America).
North America (the United States, Canada, and Mexico) will have a dominant share in the Global peat market from 2022 to 2027. The major factor driving the growth of the market in the North American region is the presence of vast peatlands in USA and Canada. Due to the continental climate in this region, around 45% of the world’s peatlands can be found here with rich carbon and nitrogen content. It is also in demand as a bio-based fuel to substitute harsher fossil fuels that degrade the environment.
Moreover, the Asia Pacific (India, China, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, and the Rest of Asia Pacific) region is expected to be the fastest-growing segment in the global peat market during the forecast period. The growth in this region will be dominated by demand of peat in China, India and Japan. This region shows fast growth as it houses the world’s largest developing countries with ever growing population as well. Such factors lead to increasing demand for peat for infrastructural expansion and urbanisation, electricity generation and various agricultural purposes.
