Coatings resins find application in diverse fields, such as corrosion of metal structures, modification of vehicle surfaces, construction, and interior design. These coatings, which are used on substrates such as metal, wood, plastic, concrete, and other surfaces, protect against corrosion, wear & tear, UV rays, and other climates.
"Architectural coatings application is projected to be the largest application of the coating resins market."
The architectural segment accounts for the largest share of the overall coating resins market in terms of value and volume. Architectural coatings incorporate exterior and interior house paints, sealers, primers, stains, and varnishes. Consumers and contractors purchase them through retail and wholesale outlets; large commercial organizations acquire directly from the manufacturers. The growth of the architectural coatings industry is mainly due to the performance of the construction industry. The construction industry is expected to reach USD 8.9 trillion in emerging markets by 2030. The architectural coatings market segment is a major factor in residential construction.
"Polyurethane coating resin is the fastest-growing resin type of the North American coating resins market."
Polyurethane is a versatile material that can be tailored based on hardness, cure speeds, viscosities, mechanical, and thermal properties for many applications. Radiation-cured polyurethanes are often used on plastic substrates that require only low or moderate curing temperatures, such as clear overprint lacquers on vinyl decals, electronic circuit boards, "no-wax" vinyl floorings, and tiles.
The polyurethane coating resins market in North America highly depends on the growth of the floors, boats, and metal objects markets. It is the fastest-growing segment in North America in terms of value of coating resins. Due to the regulations for reducing VOC emissions, the share of coating resin technologies has drastically declined. The share of environment-friendly technologies, such as waterborne, powder, and radiation-curable coatings, is rising. Solventborne technology has lost its dominant position over waterborne coating resins.
"Europe is the second largest coating resins market."
Europe was the second-largest market for coating resins, in terms of volume, in 2023. With the recovery of the global economy and reviving demand for coating resins, the European market is expected to grow in the next few years. The European market is regulated by Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemical Substances (REACH), which monitors and issues guidelines for preventing health hazards caused by chemicals. The stringent regulatory framework adopted by REACH has resulted in a steady decline in the use of high-VOC-emitting resins used in coatings in the region. The European coating resins market faces stringent regulations, which create growth constraints for formulators and raw material suppliers.
