    What are paints & coatings?

    Paints & coatings include a liquid mixture that is a solid pigment in a liquid vehicle. They are used as a decorative or protective coating in the construction industry. They enhance appearance, protect against corrosion and environmental damage, and provide functional benefits. These products find widespread use in the construction, automotive, aerospace, and consumer goods industries.

    Pigments (colourants), binders (resins), solvents, and additives are the main ingredients of paints. While binders keep the pigment particles bound and affixed to the surface, pigments add colour. A solid coating is left behind when solvents aid in dissolving the binders and making the application easier to dissipate.

    Key Players

    Some of the major players in the glboal market are-

    • AkzoNobel N.V.
    • PPG Industries
    • The Sherwin-Williams Company
    • Nippon Paint Holding Co. Ltd.
    • Axalta Coatings System LLC
    • Tikkurila
    • Jotun A/S
    • RPM International Inc.
    • Nippon Paint Holdings Co., Ltd.
    • Asian Paints Limited
    • BASF Coatings GmbH

    Market Dynamics

    The prime factor contributing to the demand for paints & coatings is mainly the growing demand from end-use industries such as architectural, general industrial, protective, and automotive & transportation, which in turn, is driving the growth of the market. The global population is experiencing rapid growth, particularly in urban areas, which is fueling the demand for housing, infrastructure, and transportation. As a result, there is an increased need for paints and coatings in the architectural, industrial, and transportation sectors. Governments worldwide are imposing stricter regulations on volatile organic compounds (VOCs) found in paints and coatings due to their environmental harm and contribution to air pollution. This growing focus on VOC regulation is generating higher demand for low-VOC and water-based alternatives in the market.

    Restraints: Thin-film powder coatings are used in paints, protective coatings, and optical coatings due to their excellent flow properties, fine perforations, and consistent distribution of raw materials. Conventional powder coatings can produce uneven finishes, while thin films require uniform flow and leveling. Polyurethane resins are preferred for thin films due to their flow, physical properties, and lower costs. Substrate smoothness and wetting are crucial issues in thin-film powder coating applications, making them difficult to obtain, similar to wet paint systems.

    Opportunity: Polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) is a popular choice in the building and construction industry for its high dielectric strength, resistance to weathering, and self-extinguishing properties. It can be applied through spray coating or conventional coil techniques and can be baked at temperatures ranging from 230°C to 250°C. PVDF is stable to sunlight and ultraviolet radiation, making it a popular base resin for long-lasting exterior coatings. Other fluoropolymers like polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP), and ethylene tetrafluoroethylene copolymer (ETFE) are also used in the industry, particularly in countries with high summer temperatures. The long-life characteristics of PVDF coatings outperform silicone-modified performance polyester, polyester, acrylics, plastisols, and other resin coil coatings, making them crucial in the industry.

    Challenges: Governments are increasingly adopting regulatory policies, forcing paints and coatings producers to improve their processes to meet strict environmental requirements. In countries with strict regulations, like Western Europe and North America, products that fail to meet legal requirements are not allowed. However, some legislators limit emission values based on VOC concentration, leading to high mass emissions and disregarding reduced atmospheric emissions when using low-VOC coatings.

    Segments Analysis

    By End-Use Industry Type

    The market is segmented as architectural and industrial. The architectural segment accounted for the larger share by application in 2022, owing to government's focus on residential construction, especially in China and India.

    By Resin Type

    The market is segmented as acrylic, alkyd, epoxy, polyester, polyurethane, and others. The acrylic segment held a 40% market share in 2022 and is expected to remain dominant during the forecast period. The significant share of the acrylic segment is attributed to resistance to weathering & oxidation and the availability of a variety of high-gloss colours. The utility of acrylic for outdoor applications coupled with its moderate price will augment the segmental growth over the forecast period.

    By Technology Type

    The market is segmented as waterborne, solvent-borne, powder coating, and others. The waterborne segment held a 35% market share in 2022 and is expected to remain dominant over the forecast period. The dominance of the waterborne segment is due to low flammability, ease of use, eco-friendly properties, and less hazardous disposal associated with the technology type.

    By Region

    Asia-Pacific market share is more than 36% in 2022 and is expected to be the largest market share during the forecast period. The high share is attributed to the growing economy and expanding construction industry. Rapid urbanization especially in China and India will augment the regional growth. North America is anticipated to offer significant growth opportunities over the forecast period, with the US being the major country.
