The characteristics of the UK bathroom products market have evolved in recent years, due in part to changing legislation and developments in distribution. The level of imports has increased considerably (currently estimated at around 75% of market value).

With the cost-of-living crisis and weak consumer spending in 2023, the UK bathroom market saw a marginal decline of -1%, with the market size largely influenced by inflationary pressures. Disposable incomes were particularly squeezed by the high cost of food and energy. The lack of skilled construction workers and RMI installers also impacted on the level of new bathroom installations and refurbishments at this time.
The market situation is looking more positive in the next five years, with more certain economic conditions and the election of a new UK government in 2024. As a result, the UK bathroom market is expected to show value growth of +4% by 2028. Market demand will be supported initially by RMI activity, both in residential homes and non-residential end-use applications, as confidence levels improve.
