In North Korea, the pet supply sector is transitioning from basic utilitarian items to specialized products. Due to the cold climate and specific urban housing structures, there is an increasing demand for high-performance materials, including durable pet transport boxes that can withstand extreme temperature fluctuations during transit.
The non-metallic mineral sector has seen a rise in the preference for absorbent materials. Traditional sawdust is being replaced by industrial-grade bentonite cat litter, which offers superior odor control and moisture absorption, critical for the confined living spaces found in Pyongyang.
Furthermore, the integration of rubber-based polymers in the manufacturing of accessories has improved the longevity of pet furniture. The market is now seeing a shift toward custom cat scratching post designs that utilize reinforced rubber bases for stability and durability.
