The North American market for home appliances is homogenous and mature in nature, with maximum consumption from the U.S. and Canada. However, the Mexican market is still growing, due to surge in demand for durable goods. Improvement in economic conditions owing to the development of manufacturing hub in the country has propelled the demand for durable goods such as home appliances. The surge in sale of home appliances, in turn, boosts the need for slide rails, which are used in appliances such as ovens, refrigerators, and dishwashers. Moreover, increase in home improvement and renovation activities in the U.S., owing to the high construction prices creates a demand for home appliances. For instance, during renovation of kitchens, consumersopt for replacing old appliances with latest models. This further propelsthe demand for home appliances, thereby augmenting the growth of North America slide rails market industry. Furthermore, strong foothold of major home appliance manufacturers in North Americahas led to the development of the home appliance industry in the recent years, which, in turn, augments the demand for slide rails in North America. In addition, rise in sale of electronic appliances, owing to constant advancements in home appliance products, surge in new residential construction activities, and increase in dependence of population on electronic home appliances are the key factors contributing toward the growth of the North America slide rails market for home appliances.

However, increase in trade tensions between countries such as the U.S. and China has negatively affected the import and export of home appliances along with their parts. This has resulted in price hikes of these appliances, which reduces the consumption of home appliances in this region. This, in turn, restrains the market growth of slide rails. In addition, the tariff hike imposed by the U.S. Government on aluminum and steel imports negatively affects the manufacturing of home appliances, thereby restraining the North America slide rails market growth for home appliances.

The heavy-duty slide rails type segment accounted for nearly half of the North America slide rails market share in 2019, owing to high consumption of heavy slide rails in ovens and dishwashers. By end user, the ovens segment generated high revenue, owing to technological advancements and integration of smart technologies in ovens, thereby increasing the demand for side rails.

Analyst Review

The North America Slide Rail market accounts for high potential in the ovens segment.Ovens majorly utilize heavy-duty slide rails, owing to the exposure to extreme temperatures in these appliances. Moreover, the product developments provided by the major players for ovens, boost the demand for ovens in the home appliance industry, thereby, promoting the growth of slide rails utilized in them.

Furthermore, the increase in consumption and dependency of home appliances in the North American region is a major driving factor of the slide rails market. The home appliance industry is matured in the U.S. and Canada, owing to increase in urbanization and high living standards. However, increase in construction activities of new residential buildings is a major factor, which fuels the demand for new home appliances, thereby propelling the utilization of slide rails. 

In current scenario, home appliance manufacturers constantly upgrade their product offerings with low energy consumption & smart technologies. This motivates consumers to change their appliances constantly, before the termination of their service life, thus boosting the manufacturing of home appliances. In addition, consumer trend toward bigger appliances with more shelves and drawers bolster the slide rails demand. On the contrary, the tariff hike on steel and aluminum on imports to the U.S. is a major restraining factor for the slide rails industry. 

The tariff hike has caused inflation in cold-formed steel and aluminum prices in the U.S., which increases the costs incurred on manufacturing of slide rails, thereby augmenting the overall cost of appliances, restraining the market growth. Furthermore, growing trade wars between nations has negatively affected the import of electronics and home appliances from the manufacturing countries such as China, Japan, and Korea, which is propelling the prices of these products. These factors influence the home appliance industry, which, in turn, limits the growth of the slide rails market.
