The Global Anti-corrosion Coating Market size is expected to reach $51.5 billion by 2031, rising at a market growth of 6.7% CAGR during the forecast period. In the year 2023, the market attained a volume of 10,859.7 kilo tonnes, experiencing a growth of 27.2% (2020-2023).
Polyurethane coatings offer superior abrasion resistance, making them suitable for applications where the coated surface is subjected to wear and tear, such as floors, decks, and transportation equipment. This helps maintain the integrity of the coating and prolong its service life even in high-traffic areas. Polyurethane coatings are known for their flexibility and durability, allowing them to withstand thermal expansion, contraction, and mechanical stress without cracking or peeling. This flexibility makes them ideal for use in environments with temperature fluctuations or dynamic loading conditions. Thus, the polyurethane segment covered 18% revenue share in the anti-corrosion coating market in 2023. In term of volume, 3,070.9 kilo tonnes of Polyurethane type anti- corrosion coatings is expected to be utilized by 2031.
Anti-corrosion coatings formulated for immersion and submersion applications provide corrosion protection for hydroelectric infrastructure, reducing maintenance requirements and extending service life. Therefore, the anti-corrosion coating market is expanding significantly due to the rapid growth in renewable energy infrastructure. Additionally, Innovations such as bio-based materials, renewable resources, water-based formulations, and low-energy curing processes offer opportunities to develop next-generation coatings that meet sustainability requirements without compromising performance. Thus, because of the growing demand for sustainable solutions, the anti-corrosion coating market is anticipated to increase significantly.
However, high initial investment costs can deter industries from adopting new anti-corrosion coating technologies or investing in unproven solutions. Risk-averse decision-makers may prefer to stick with conventional corrosion protection methods or delay investment decisions until the cost-effectiveness and reliability of new coating technologies are proven, slowing market adoption rates. Thus, the high initial investment can slow down the growth of the anti-corrosion coating market.
Type Outlook
By type, the market is categorized into epoxy, polyurethane, acrylic, alkyd, zinc, chlorinated rubber, and others. The alkyd segment acquired 13% revenue share in the market in 2023.
