Market Overview

An increase in demand for innovative equipment such as HVAC systems, irrigation systems, and so on will help the UK greenhouse industry grow during the next five years. Farmers and cultivators are increasingly adapting to this equipment and greenhouse methods, which drives market growth. Adverse climate changes, deteriorating environmental circumstances, and demand for food products that would otherwise be impractical in the country's natural atmosphere all contribute to the expansion of the United Kingdom greenhouse market during the next five years. One of the most significant technological advances in the greenhouse business has been the development of improved climate control systems. These complex systems, outfitted with cutting-edge sensors and automation capabilities, enable growers to accurately control temperature, humidity, light levels, and CO2 concentration.

Market Segment

• In 2023, the plastic greenhouse segment accounted for the largest revenue share over the forecast period.

Based on the type, the United Kingdom greenhouse market is segmented into plastic greenhouses and glass greenhouses. Among these, the plastic greenhouse segment has the largest revenue share over the forecast period. Plastic greenhouses have much-reduced construction and maintenance costs, making them an appealing choice for growers. This pricing is especially useful for those on tight budgets or looking to expand their company. Additionally, plastic greenhouses are quite durable. Their construction components, such as polyethene, polycarbonate, and polyvinyl chloride (PVC), are extremely durable. This not only makes the working environment safer but also ensures that the greenhouse structure will last longer. In contrast, glass greenhouses are more likely to crack or break, necessitating frequent repairs and upkeep.

• In 2023, the fruits & vegetables segment accounted for the largest revenue share over the forecast period.

On the basis of crop type, the United Kingdom greenhouse market is segmented into fruits & vegetables, flowers & ornamentals, and others. Among these, the fruits & vegetables segment has the largest revenue share over the forecast period. Consumers increasing health consciousness is one of the primary elements driving the dominance of fruits and vegetables in the United Kingdom greenhouse market. With an increase in health consciousness, people are becoming more cognizant of their dietary choices and actively seeking out fresh, locally-grown produce over imported or processed alternatives. This change to better eating habits has not only increased demand for locally grown fruits and vegetables in the United Kingdom, but it has also played an important part in driving greenhouse output.
