India Wall Covering Market Trends:

Rising Demand for Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Wall Coverings

The India wall covering market is witnessing a shift toward sustainable and eco-friendly materials due to growing consumer awareness and stringent environmental regulations. Manufacturers are increasingly offering wallpapers, decorative laminates, and paints with low or zero volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to minimize indoor air pollution. The adoption of recycled, biodegradable, and natural materials, such as bamboo-based wallpapers and water-based paints, is gaining traction. Additionally, government initiatives promoting green building certifications, like the Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) and LEED India, are encouraging the use of sustainable wall coverings. For instance, as per industry reports, during 2024, India witnessed 370 projects with LEED certification, a notable elevation in comparison to previous years. The green-certified spaces in total increased to 8.50 Million GSM, highlighting a stable acceleration in sustainability across residential, industrial, and commercial buildings. As urban consumers become more environmentally conscious, demand for products with certifications like GreenGuard and Ecolabel is rising. Market players are investing in R&D to develop durable and cost-effective eco-friendly alternatives to traditional PVC-based wallpapers and solvent-based paints. This trend is expected to strengthen as the construction and interior design sectors increasingly prioritize sustainability in new and renovation projects.

Increasing Popularity of Digital and Customizable Wall Coverings

Advancements in digital printing technology are driving the demand for personalized and customizable wall coverings in India. Consumers are seeking unique designs that reflect their personal style, leading to a growing market for bespoke wallpapers, murals, and textured finishes. High-resolution digital printing enables manufacturers to offer intricate patterns, photorealistic images, and customizable designs with greater precision and durability. Hospitality, retail, and commercial spaces are adopting digitally printed wall coverings to create branded and immersive environments. In addition to this, the notable emergence of e-commerce platforms has made it convenient for customers to avail a broad range of designs and order custom-made wallpapers online. For instance, as per industry reports, in 2024, e-commerce segment across India witnessed robust growth of 15%-20% among key platforms, typically being driven by technology utilization. Companies are leveraging augmented reality (AR) applications as well as AI-powered design tools to allow customers to visualize wall coverings before purchase. With increasing disposable income and changing aesthetic preferences, digital and customizable wall coverings are becoming a preferred choice among Indian consumers, particularly in urban and semi-urban regions.
