IC Press Release

Conservatories and patio roofs reach their peak

Quantity of sales of conservatories and patio roofs in the Benelux countries increased by 8.5% in 2021. Turnover even increased by 14.5%. The market will not quite be able to maintain the high sales rates of the COVID years in the coming years. Until 2025, Interconnection Consulting forecasts an average annual decline of 3.4% in volume.

Strongly increased prices due to stagflation

The peak in the market for conservatories and patio roofs has already passed in 2022. This is because the market will decline by 5.6% in volume this year. In a regional comparison, Belgium performed best last year with a growth of 11.5%, followed by Luxembourg (7.4%) and the Netherlands (6.6%). Overall, the sales volume was 23,012 units and the market sales value was 86.9 million euros. Especially in the COVID period when people did not go on vacation, they invested in the expansion of their private homes. Thus, despite stagnant figures in construction completions, a significant increase in sales of conservatories and patio roofs was achieved. In 2022, the increase in construction completions will be 5.6%, but after that the momentum will slow down also due to the onset of stagflation. Stagflation will, on the one hand, reduce demand for conservatories and patio roofs, but on the other hand, prices will increase by an average of 7% per year.

Higher share and higher growth for patio roofs

In all the markets studied, patio roofs are the favored segment, mainly due to price advantages and the climatic changes that hardly justify insulated systems. A regional comparison shows that Luxembourg has the highest sales share of conservatories with 15.7%, ahead of the Netherlands with 12.4 and Belgium with 10.6%. In the future, conservatories will show a lower growth rate than patio roofs. “There will be a trend towards “cold buildings”, which in turn will support the trend towards patio roofs,” says Johannes Lözelt, author of the study. Patio roofs will continue to be in high demand, because they are less complex and more forgiving of construction errors, Lözelt added.
