Protective Coatings Market Industry Sales, Revenue, Key Players and Forecast 2025
Industry Insights:
The Global Protective Coatings Market was valued at USD 24.90 billion in 2015. The growth in this market is primarily an outcome of significant consumption in key end-use industries such as construction, oil & gas, and aerospace. The growth in the protective coatings market is expected to be positively impacted by the rise in the aerospace and automotive industries worldwide. The rising demand for passenger cars and the growing air traffic, most notably in emerging regions, are expected to drive the growth of this industry during the forecast period. The product finds major applications in the construction, mining, power generation, aerospace, industrial, and marine industries, among which the construction segment accounted for the largest share in 2015.
The growing infrastructure development in emerging countries such as India, Brazil, and China are anticipated to drive the demand for the product during the forecast period. The key restraints for the growth of the industry include the stringent government regulations, especially in the U.S. and European countries, regarding the volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions and increasing cost of raw materials. The rising demand for raw materials in the other end-use segments may negatively impact the growth of the industry during the forecast period.

Resin Type Insights
In terms resin types, the industry has been segmented into acrylic, epoxy, polyurethane, alkyd, and polyester. The epoxy coatings segment dominated the overall industry revenues in 2015, accounting for revenues of over USD 9 billion. The growing demand for high operational efficiency in key application verticals can be considered the primary factor driving the product growth. The alkyd resins segment is expected to observe a significant growth during the forecast period, driven by the growing application scope in segments such as automotive, construction, and oil & gas.
Product Insights
In terms of products, the industry has been categorized into water-borne, powder-based, and solvent-borne. In 2015, the solvent-borne segment accounted for revenues of nearly USD 8.5 billion, thereby dominating the overall industry revenue. However, this segment is anticipated to observe slow growth during the forecast years owing to strict government regulations on the use of solvent-based compounds with high VOC content. Water-borne coatings is another key segment, which is expected to experience the highest revenue growth of nearly 11% during the forecast period. Increasing demand for environmental-friendly products from key end-use verticals is slated to drive the segment growth.

Regional Insights
The Asia Pacific accounted for a major share of the overall industry in 2015, having recorded revenues of over USD 18 billion. This regional industry segment is expected to continue its dominance in the coming years, as a result of the presence of numerous manufacturers, easy availability of raw materials, rising construction initiatives being taken by governments, and low production costs. China is expected to be among the highest growing markets for the product worldwide during the forecast period, projected to grow at a CAGR of nearly 10%. The European region is expected to observe slow growth in the protective coatings industry, primarily owing to the political and economic instabilities in the region. The industry in Russia has been witnessing a significant boost in the construction sector, which is expected to offer high growth potential to product manufacturers in the region during the forecast period.
Competitive Insights
The protective coatings industry is highly competitive, with key manufacturers spread worldwide. The key global players in this industry include Wacker Chemie AG, BASF SE, AkzoNobel NV, The Sherwin-Williams Co., and PPG Industries. These players have adopted strategies such as capacity expansion and new product developments to gain a competitive edge over competitors in the global industry. The aforementioned global companies are, however, faced with significant competition from Chinese manufacturers. The significant positions of these Chinese players can be attributed to the low production costs, easy availability of raw materials, and rapid growth of the end-use verticals in the region.
