Sanding Block Market Growth Accelerated by Increasing Demand from Manufacturing Industry

 

Sanding blocks are used to smooth wood surfaces and remove excess material during wood finishing or repair processes. They consist of a resin-bonded abrasive paper or cloth attached to a wood or plastic backing for uniform pressure distribution. Sanding blocks enable precise sanding of flat and contoured surfaces as compared to loose abrasive papers. They produce better surface finishes and are safer to handle.

The global Sanding Block Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 450 million in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 3.5% over the forecast period 2023-2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.

Market key trends:

The increasing demand from the manufacturing industry is one of the key trends accelerating the growth of the sanding block market. Sanding blocks are extensively used in woodworking, furniture manufacturing, shipbuilding, and automotive industries for smoothing surfaces and achieving the desired finish. They provide better control and consistency during sanding operations as compared to other hand sanding tools. The growth of various end-use manufacturing sectors globally has directly increased the demand for precision surface finishing tools like sanding blocks. Moreover, the rising commercial and infrastructure construction activities have also augmented the sales of sanding blocks for wood finishing during construction works.

Segment Analysis
The global sanding block market is dominated by the low grit and high grit segment. Within these, the low grit segment accounts for the major share owing to its suitability for coarse sanding applications that require fast material removal. Some key areas where low grit sanding blocks are used include woodworking, metalworking, automotive repair and ceramic tile finishing.
