This Freedonia industry study analyzes the $17.7 billion engineered stone countertops market in the US. It presents historical demand data (2011, 2016, and 2021) and forecasts (2026 and 2031) by market (residential, commercial, vehicle), project type (new, remodeling) and area of installation (kitchen, bathroom, other areas). The study also offers competitive analysis on industry competitors including market share for Caesarstone, Cambria, Cosentino, LX Hausys, and Vicostone.
Demand for engineered stone countertops is expected to rise 9.6% per year to 404 million square feet in 2026, solidifying the material's position as the most popular type of countertop in the country. This strong rate of growth will be supported by:
While kitchens represent the largest application for engineered stone countertops, as these rooms tend to have the largest amount of counter space, design trends are also driving increased usage in bathroom vanities as well as in countertops in other areas of the home, such as wet bars. Homeowners are looking to bring a cohesive design aesthetic throughout their homes and elevate all spaces with attractive materials.
In 2021, engineered stone surpassed laminate to become the most used countertop material in the US, driven by a rapid increase in low-cost slab imports over the past decade. As prices declined and color availability expanded, consumers became more willing to purchase higher cost engineered stone countertops. Engineered stone will continue to expand its market share over competitive materials, supported by:
Once the largest source of quartz slab imports to the US, China now exports less than 1 million square feet of the material to the US per year. After steep tariffs were imposed on quartz slabs from China in 2018, US producers and fabricators sought other sources of low-cost quartz slab to fill the supply gap. Imports from India, Turkey, and Vietnam significantly increased, more than making up for the supply losses from China. While antidumping duties were also imposed on quartz slabs from India and Turkey in 2019, these tariffs were lower than those imposed on China, and import activity from both countries has remained strong.
