Induction Cooktops Industry Overview
The global induction cooktops market size is anticipated to reach USD 35.9 billion by 2028, registering a CAGR of 8.5% over the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The increased use of induction cooktops in Asia and Western areas of the world has been fueled by rising customer demand for hassle-free and clean cooking technology. Induction cooktops provide a number of advantages over standard gas stoves, such as faster water boiling, no heating of the burners, easy surface cleaning, and energy efficiency. These advantages have attracted not only a significant number of home chefs but also professional chefs.
Induction stoves are not some Veblen goods for image-conscious elites, despite the fact that they are a little more expensive than gas or electric stoves. The most affordable induction ranges costs $1,000, which is only a few hundred dollars more than a mid-tier gas or electric freestanding range. Consumer preferences have shifted, not just in terms of product pricing, but also in terms of purchase methods. Because of the widespread availability of the internet in various parts of the world, e-commerce has gained tremendous popularity. In the past, consumers favored in-store buying over online shopping. However, in recent years, online buying has become increasingly popular. The option to select from a wide variety of products, along with enticing prices, has led to an increase in product sales through online distribution channels.
Apart from high-end brands, traditional cooking equipment manufacturers are also introducing advanced induction cooktops, which also support market growth. Large induction cooktops are now available from BSH Group, AB Electrolux, Whirlpool Corp., GE Appliances, Viking Corp., Sub-Zero/Wolf, and many other appliance manufacturers across the globe. The induction market in Europe is increasing rapidly. However, Italy is an exception as it favors gas appliances due to the limited amount of electricity a household can consume at any given moment (around 3-3.2 KW).
Induction Cooktops Market Segmentation
Grand View Research has segmented the global induction cooktops market on the basis of product, application, distribution channel, and region:
Based on the Product Insights, the market is segmented into Built-in, and Free-standing.
- Because of the inherent benefits of the technology, more chefs and manufacturers are increasingly promoting induction to construction professionals and consumers. Induction is more efficient than typical electric and gas-based technology.
- Most corporations are focusing on mergers and acquisitions, acquiring shares in regional companies to expand their geographical presence, broadening their product ranges, and expanding customer reach.
Based on the Application Insights, the market is segmented into Household, and Commercial.
- The household segment led the global market with a revenue share of over 72% in 2020 and will expand further at the fastest CAGR over the forecast period. In residential settings, induction cooktops are favored because they deliver better cooking results.
- Unlike standard electric cooktops, which are slower to respond to temperature changes, induction cooktops provide precise and near-instantaneous temperature control. Furthermore, a worldwide increase in disposable income has led to people buying several homes or having multiple kitchens in larger homes.
Based on the Distribution Channel Insights, the market is segmented into Hypermarkets & Supermarkets, Specialty Stores, and Online.
- The specialty stores segment accounted for the largest revenue share of over 50% in 2020. The online segment is expected to record the fastest CAGR from 2021 to 2028. The expansion of the global household induction cooktops business is fueled by advancements in internet marketing and an increase in the use of digital media for product marketing. Increased acceptance of technologically advanced and high-tech products is expected to fuel the growth of e-commerce websites for kitchen appliances, driving the market for domestic induction cooktops.
- Hypermarkets and supermarkets also account for significant product sales as these stores provide consumers with appealing promotional offers and discounts. The product sales may expand considerably through this distribution channel during the forecast period on account of the rising number of private labels by large-scale retailers.
