Playground equipment is an ever-expanding market that is forecast to achieve significant growth over the next couple of years. Research has found that there was a negative impact on the market in the post-COVID era but there are also many factors that are having a positive influence on growth. For example, growing urbanisation globally is a big driver for market growth and this is not something that is likely to recede any time soon. Increasingly, populations are moving from rural habitation to urban or semi-urban areas - population growth and urbanisation are expected to add 2.5 billion people in urban and semi-urban areas by 2050. As a result, the demand for playground equipment, such as school playground equipment, continues to rise. And it's this that is driving the market to increase by $2.01 billion up to 2025.
