Share via:

We’re pleased to share that the Contract Flooring Journal has featured Leading Edge in their latest news update, highlighting the key themes explored in our 2025 Flooring Adhesives and 2025 Flooring Smoothing Compounds Market Reports.

The CFJ article was submitted just before publication — and both reports have now been released.

These new editions continue our long-running research series, first launched in 2007, and remain one of the most trusted sources of contractor-based insight in the GB flooring sector.

What’s inside the 2025 reports?

Each report is based on 100 in-depth interviews with flooring contractors, supported by supplementary desk and trade research to provide wider market context.

The studies explore:

  • Market size and short-term forecasts
  • Contractor buying behaviour and usage patterns
  • Brand usage and estimated market share
  • Key reasons for supplier selection
  • Product performance ratings
  • Trends across adhesives, smoothing compounds, DPM and primers
  • Longer-term shifts in contractor preferences and installation practices

The combination of long-term trend data and detailed contractor insight makes these reports a valuable resource for manufacturers looking to understand market dynamics, strengthen customer relationships and identify growth opportunities.
