Market Trends of United Kingdom Bed And Bath Linen Industry
Increasing Number of Hotel Constructions Growing the Market
The decrease in the value of the pound has made it cheaper for international tourists to visit the United Kingdom and has also encouraged more staycations, which are driving confidence in the hotel industry for constructing more rooms and hotels across the nation. Clients include established brands such as Premier Inn, Motel One, Holiday Inn, Travelodge, Park Inn by Radisson, and Staycity apart-hotels, as well as new entrants to the United Kingdom market like Motel One, Dalata Hotels, and Fragrance Group.
Raising Import of Raw Material from Asian Countries
The market witnessed a continuing trend by manufacturers and retailers to relocate production overseas and sourcing raw materials and products in low-cost countries, such as China and India. Key suppliers in the bed linen sector include Dorma, Vanguard Textiles, and Arthur Sanderson. Key towel suppliers include Christy and Stott & Smith. Industry surveys revealed that only approximately 5% of residential bed and bath linens are collected for reuse and recycling.
Over 90% of material is being imported from Asian countries where this is very cheap rates, and cotton linen is at a huge amount. Hence, India, China, and, due to COVID-19, Bangladesh became the largest exporters to the United Kingdom for the Bed and Bath Linen Market.
