Rising raw material costs make it difficult to maintain affordable product prices
One of the factors restraining the ice hockey stick market is the rising cost of essential raw materials. Fiberglass and carbon fiber are essential elements in the construction of modern sticks due to their strength and light weight. However, global supply and demand dynamics have caused the price of these materials to rise in recent years. At the same time, improved performance characteristics and technical features being incorporated into new stick models are driving up the per-unit material price. As raw material costs rise, equipment brands are being forced to offset these pressures through cost-cutting measures or by passing on some of the higher costs directly to the consumer. Balancing rising material costs with keeping products priced competitively will be an ongoing challenge, as maintaining affordability is critical to attracting new and casual players.
Emerging ice hockey program seeks path to growth in international markets
While ice hockey is concentrated in traditional powerhouse countries, there are opportunities to grow the sport and boost equipment sales in other countries. International governing bodies are prioritizing expansion plans to bring hockey to new regions with promising fan bases. Countries in Asia and Eastern Europe, in particular, have been working for several years to build ice rinks, youth programs, and domestic leagues. As hockey fans grow in these markets, participating players will be seeking hockey sticks and other equipment. The sooner equipment manufacturers enter emerging regions, the better they can gain a first-mover advantage as the sport takes root and participation grows in the long run. The international growth avenue offers exciting prospects to compensate for slowing equipment replenishment cycles in saturated North American and European hockey markets.
Advances in 3D printing allow for the design and manufacture of customized sticks
A major trend impacting the ice hockey stick industry is the accelerating development of 3D printing technology. Advanced 3D printers allow composite sticks to be precisely manufactured layer by layer, allowing for fully customized designs optimized to individual player specifications. Instead of choosing from pre-made stick models, athletes may eventually be able to work directly with equipment companies to 3D print their own unique sticks tailored to their body, shooting style, and position on the ice. 3D printing allows flexibility to create limited-run specialty sticks for professionals, while also creating testing opportunities. In the long term, improved 3D printing capabilities may see some hockey stick production take place locally, as it becomes more cost-effective compared to traditional mass production methods. Customized 3D printed sticks represent an exciting frontier that can further connect players to their equipment.
