Residential Window Coverings Playing Role in Replacement Market

Window covering products provide a dual role in homes, serving both decorative and practical purposes. Curtains, despite a gradual decline in market share, remain the dominant product sector in terms of value.

Blinds emerged as the least affected by the pandemic, likely due to their easy installation, aligning with the pandemic-driven DIY and home improvement trend.
