Market Overview

A railing is defined as a protective barrier or guard that is provided along stairwells, balconies, decks, ramps, and edges to prevent falls, provide direction, provide safety, and enhance the look of architecture.  It contains horizontal rails, vertical parts (posts or balusters), and sometimes panels.  The growth in the railing industry in the United States is primarily due to the government's greater expenditures to construct low-cost houses.  In addition, there has also been a growing industry trend toward more eco-friendly products in response to increasing environmental issues, which has contributed to the growth of the railing industry in the United States. Because of deforestation, naturally wood railings are not sustainable; however, engineered wood railings are a highly environmentally friendly alternative. These railings have wood-like properties, but the engineered wood railings are stronger and more durable because they are made from sawdust and wood fibres, pieces of real wood, and wood scraps.  In the following years, an increase in environmentally friendly products will create an increase in designer railings.  Additionally, metal railings are becoming more and more popular in the United States because of their strength, durability, aesthetics, and minimal upkeep. Advancements in technology, like 3D laser scanners, now support taking the time-consuming 3D drawings that once needed to be drawn by hand, which allowed buildings of very high complexity to be created. It is a reality in which designs and hypotheses are believed and refocused from adaptations.
