The refurbished fitness equipment market was valued at $1,084 million in 2021 and is estimated to reach $1,861.4 million by 2031, registering a CAGR of 5.7% from 2022 to 2031 The market for refurbished fitness equipment as a whole was dominated by the category of cardio equipment in 2021. Fitness equipment that has undergone a refurbishment process has some of its most important components replaced, giving it a brand-new appearance and functionality.
Cardio fitness equipment is the most popular type of refurbished fitness equipment owing to the versatility of cardio equipment and multiple benefits associated with cardio equipment such as weight loss, stamina gain, increase in endurance, and muscle relaxation. The refurbishing of weight training equipment, also known as strength training equipment, is rapidly gaining popularity as the demand for such type of products is increasing among consumers.
Refurbishing is a practice in which a portion of the equipment is discarded, and old equipment parts are replaced, and then the old equipment is properly cleaned to give it the appearance of new equipment. As the equipment is older and nearing the end of its useful life, it is sold to refurbishers at significantly lower prices. The price of swapping specific parts and cleaning the equipment is also reasonable. As a result, the resale value of refurbished fitness equipment is nearly fifty to seventy-five percent lower than that of new fitness equipment with nearly identical functionality. This makes fitness equipment readily available to consumers who want fitness equipment but do not have the financial means to purchase new equipment. Such types of refurbished equipment are in high demand for private and apartment buildings gyms and fitness centers; however, many smaller and medium-sized fitness centers that cannot afford enough money to purchase all new equipment prefer refurbished fitness equipment, resulting in market growth.
The surge in prevalence of diseases such as obesity, cholesterol, and pulmonary & respiratory disorders has led to consumers shifting toward health and fitness activities. This is causing many new entrepreneurs to set up their own gyms and fitness centers to properly fulfill the needs of the consumers' fitness demands. Owing to the smaller capacity and capital of these gyms and fitness centers, there is a rapid adoption of refurbished fitness equipment among such types of commercial establishments.
The proliferation of e-commerce in the field of refurbished fitness equipment is providing and is expected to continue to provide a major boost to the market in the future. The majority of refurbishers of fitness equipment manufacturers are opening their own e-commerce sites, with facilities such as quick delivery of the equipment along with easy installations, discounts and offers instead of the lower prices of refurbished equipment, which is attracting many consumers to purchase refurbished fitness equipment online.
