Freestanding Tubs Market

Freestanding Tubs Market- Increasing Demand For Such Luxury Items Across The Globe
Freestanding or free standing tub is the bathtub which is installed in a bathroom without any
surrounding deck. These tubs are often treated as furniture rather than actual bathroom fixtures and
function in the same manner as built-in bath tubs. They are designed to provide relaxation and an air of
opulence within one unit. These bathtubs are manufactured in various shapes and sizes based on the
materials and styles. They can be replaced or moved without making any structural change and are easy
to clean. Furthermore, placing these freestanding tubs requires skilled plumbing but eliminates the need
for any tiling.
Increasing installation in several commercial places such as hotels, spas etc. to provide luxury services to
customers is expected to boost the growth of the freestanding tubs market. Furthermore, changing
preference of customers toward designing their bathroom in a luxurious and aesthetic manner in sync
with their tastes and brand preferences with respect to luxury fittings is projected to influence the
market growth over the forecast period. The flexibility of these freestanding bathtubs to be placed
anywhere in the bathroom is also anticipated to spur their demand in the coming years. Increasing
demand for such luxury items across the globe has encouraged manufacturers to invest in the market
thus leading to the expansion of the freestanding tubs market.
Additionally, consumers are travelling and staying in good hotels with luxurious facilities which is
improving their tastes and encouraging them to opt for these options in their homes as well. This has led
to entry of various international brands such as Gessi, Flaminia, GSG, Plavisdesign, Dornbracht, Regia,
and Art Ceram to cater to these demands of consumers. However, freestanding tubs are more expensive
than the built-in tubs in terms of installation, since these tubs are more complex to build and are also
very heavy. These factors are expected to hamper the growth of the market over the forecast period.

The global freestanding tubs market can be segmented based on product, style, material, application,
and region. The product segment of freestanding tubs is categorized into single and double person
occupancy. Based on style, the freestanding tubs market is segregated into clawfoot bathtub, pedestal/
skirted bathtub, slipper tubs, air bubble/whirlpool bathtub, and Japanese soaking tubs. Clawfoot
bathtub is referred to as the tub that is elevated off the ground with a clawfoot that supports the tub.
These type of tubs work well in both modern buildings and older homes. Pedestal bathtub settles
directly to the base, sometimes directly to the floor or on a plinth of stone and is suitable for both
narrow and long and deep bathtubs. Air bubble bathtub includes built-in jets along the floor and wall of
the tub.
Based on material, freestanding tubs are categorized into acrylic, copper, cast iron, vacuum-treated solid
surface, stainless steel, and stone. Acrylic based freestanding tubs are expected to acquire major share
of the market in terms of revenue over the forecast period. The growth in the market is attributed to
several factors such as easy availability and easy installation of these tubs.
In terms of application, the freestanding tubs market is segmented into household, commercial, and
others. Commercial application is projected to contribute majorly to market growth in the coming years
due to increasing demand for freestanding tubs in various commercial places such as hotels and spas to

into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and South America.
