Need for efficient and durable coatings with better aesthetics driving Industrial Coatings Market


The market for industrial coatings is estimated to grow from USD 85.2 billion in 2020 to USD 103.2 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 3.9% during the forecast period. Industrial coatings are thin films applied to steel, concrete, and other materials to augment specific properties such as corrosion resistance, wear resistance, conductivity, and so on. Industrial coatings are manufactured with conventional polymers such as epoxy, polyurethane, acrylic, alkyd, polyesters, and fluoropolymer. The industrial coatings market depends heavily on the performance of the end-user industries such as protective, automotive, aerospace, marine, wood, packaging, coil, rail and general industrial equipment.



Nowadays, industrial coating products are sold with a multi-year guarantee against corrosion, mostly as a result of improvements in the performance of coatings. In addition to improved performance, manufacturers are continuously introducing new products in the market that have environmentally-friendly characteristics. The technologies that are currently used to manufacture coatings differ from solvent-based technology used previously. The introduction of new technologies has increased the performance of coatings rapidly.


Industrial coatings offer several benefits, such as crack-bridging ability, high flexibility, waterproofing & weatherproofing, resistance to dirt, mildew, and chemicals. Owing to these properties, industrial coatings are used to protect walls, floors, and roofs against heavy rainfall, strong wind, and snowfall.


General industrial segment to dominate the industrial coatings market


The everyday uses of powder-based industrial coated products include lighting fixtures, antennas, and electrical components. Schools use powder-coated bleachers, soccer goals, basketball backstops, lockers, and cafeteria tables. Corporate offices utilize powder-based industrial coated file drawers, computer cabinets, laptop computers, and cell phones. In domestic homes, applications include baby strollers, cribs, playpens, car seats, toys, wagons, electronic components, gutters & downspouts, bathroom scales, mailboxes, satellite dishes, toolboxes, and fire extinguishers. The rapidly increasing demand for these products will boost the market over the next five years.


APAC has emerged as the leading consumer and producer of industrial coatings. The region is a huge manufacturing hub which has resulted in attracting foreign investment and the booming industrial sectors primarily due to the low-cost labor and easily accessible raw materials. There is an increase in the demand for industrial coatings owing to the growing industrial, aerospace, transportation, marine, and automotive industries in the region.


The major players in the industrial coatings market are AkzoNobel N.V. (Netherlands), PPG Industries (US), The Sherwin-Williams Company (US), Nippon Paint Holding Co. Ltd. (Japan), Axalta Coatings System LLC (US).
