CLEVELAND, June 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- US demand for window coverings is forecast to total $5.2 billion in 2021, according to Window Coverings: United States, a report recently released by Freedonia Focus Reports. Sales of hard coverings will outpace those of soft coverings as consumers adopt energy-saving products, such as cellular shades.

Demand for separately sold hardware will also experience robust expansion, advancing 2.6% annually, supported by trends toward high-end decorative and motorized smart home products.

Shipments of window coverings in the US are forecast to total $3.1 billion in 2021. Production is expected to grow at a rate consistent with US demand, supported by the large number of window covering products that require customization, which provides insulation from import competition.
