Supply chain disruptions continue to have a serious impact on material prices, productachterstanden, vrachtkosten en projectcycli keuken en badkamer, according to U.S. mediaberichten. Terwijl de huidige situatie tijdelijk kan zijn, it is estimated that the situation will continue into next year.
Dat blijkt uit het laatste onderzoek van de National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), the situation has worsened significantly “dramatisch” since this time last year. The impact is broader, including bathroom accessories, huishoudelijke apparaten, tegel, kasten, and other key components for manufacturing refrigerators, ovens, vaatwassers, magnetrons, washers and dryers are in short supply. Among the realtors surveyed, the shortage of bathroom accessories reached 75 procent. Tile reached 51 procent. The most serious is household appliances, which reached 95 procent.

The current shortage of materials is having a wider and deeper impact than at any time since 1990, and rising costs are exacerbating this effect, causing builders’ confidence in the market to fall to its lowest level in a year.
Badkamer leveranciers, huisdecorateurs, distributeurs, realtors and others are facing a year-long “storm” van de stijgende vraag, in combinatie met materiaaltekorten, logistieke uitdagingen en pandemieën. While remodeling demand is soaring with increased vaccination rates and a DIY market for homes spawned by emerging lifestyles, verstoringen van de toeleveringsketen hebben geleid tot ernstige tekorten aan belangrijke bouwproducten. In de tussentijd, supply constraints have caused material costs to soar.

Volgens de laatste Kitchen and Bath Market Index (hierna: KBMI, de VS. Kitchen and Bath Market Index) samengesteld door de National Kitchen and Bath Products Association (NKBA), John Burns Vastgoedadvies, supply chain issues coupled with rising material prices and transportation costs are forcing an increasing number of home design firms to face longer lead times while needing to seek alternative sources of supply and raise prices to protect profit margins.
Volgens het KBMI, de VS. Keuken- en badkamermarktindex voor het eerste kwartaal van 2021, 45 percent of dealers and designers surveyed said material shortages and product pricing are impacting project lead times. 60 percent of manufacturing facilities surveyed noted average lead times of six weeks or more, een aanzienlijke stijging ten opzichte van het voorgaande kwartaal. Capacity is being severely constrained by longer raw material lead times and significant freight delays. In de tussentijd, 67 percent of realtors surveyed noted that projects have been backlogged for more than three months. En 21% of realtors noted that the backlog will continue until the end of 2021.

In de tussentijd, U.S.-based factories are beginning to add capacity and adjust their supply chains. Volgens rapporten, in juni dit jaar, de VS. DEVIDA bathroom announced that it will “prioriteit geven” the production of certain brands of products, while suspending production of other series. The company said that this situation is expected to continue until the fourth quarter of 2021. They also noted that while no new orders will be accepted during this period, existing orders are not affected by the decision.
In addition to the United States, Duitsland wordt ook geconfronteerd met een verstoring van de toeleveringsketen. Germany’s Bavarian plumbing and bathroom industry from wood, plastic, staal, brass has also been shortages. In slechts één jaar, the price of insulation board has increased by 10%. Flat glass has decreased by 15 procent, steel has risen by 30 procent, and roofing panels have increased by 31 procent. And the global price of copper has risen 80 percent in the past 12 maanden.
In addition to delivery issues, een tekort aan geschoolde arbeidskrachten heeft ook gevolgen voor de bouwsector. Het werven van geschoolde werknemers, inclusief in China, is de grootste moeilijkheid geworden bij het werven van werknemers.
