Posted by Mrudula Anil Karmarkar on April 12th, 2021

The global heated towel rail market size is anticipated to reach USD 1.59 billion by 2027, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., expanding at a CAGR of 6.9% from 2020 to 2027. Growing demand for the cozy comfort of warm towels and moist free bathroom environment, particularly in winter season across the globe, is driving the need for heated towel rail among consumers. In addition, increasing technological advancements and improvement in providing more functional fittings for bathrooms and kitchen are helping derive higher penetration of heated towel rails among the residential and commercial sectors.

A heated towel rail offers the benefit of serving dry and warm towels, which are not only useful in humid and cold weather climates but also keeps the bathroom hygienic as dry towel minimizes the chances of a damp breeding ground for germs. There are two main types of highly efficient heated towel rails, which are electric and hydronic. Electric towel rails offer low energy consumption and usually consume the same power as a standard light bulb, and thus the market witnesses higher penetration of these models among consumers.

Hydronic models of towel rail utilize hot water plumbing to produce heat by running hot water through the rail, which requires connectivity to the central heating system or specific hydronic heating system. The increasing emergence of hydronic towel rails has been gaining traction among consumers as a large number of millennials are investing in new houses or home remodeling projects. According to studies by HomeAdvisor, millennials are investing in a greater number of home improvement projects each year compared to other age groups.

Rising trends across design, color, finish, and material in the heated towel rail industry are augmenting the product demand. For instance, the emergence of white, black, and rose gold finishes has been gaining popularity among consumers in the industry. Moreover, higher attraction towards black heated towel rails and bathroom fixtures has popularized the color in the bathroom accessories industry. For instance, in 2020, Warmup expanded its towel warmer collection with the introduction of new towel single bars and a full heated ladder available in brushed, polished, or new matte black finishes.
