Impact Analysis of Covid-19
The complete version of the Report will include the impact of the COVID-19, and anticipated change on the future outlook of the industry, by taking into the account the political, economic, social, and technological parameters.
Paints and coatings are used as decorative as well as protective coatings. Most of the paints are used to increase surface resistance from harsh environmental conditions. They are classified as waterborne coatings, solvent-borne coatings powder coatings, and specialty coatings. Marine, automobiles, packaging, furniture, aerospace, rail and construction are some of the major end-user of paints and coatings.
The global paints and coatings market is projected to surpass US$ 220 billion by the end of 2027, in terms of revenue, growing at CAGR of 5.4% during the forecast period (2020 to 2027).
Drivers
The growing demand for paints and coatings from the automotive industry is projected to fuel the market growth. Increasing production of automobiles around the globe is creating demand for paints and coatings. Also, the various manufacturer is introducing paints to cater to rising demand from the automotive industry. Paint and coatings are applied to the component of the automobiles to create rust and corrosion-resistant component.
Growth in the construction and building industry due to increasing investment by the government is expected to drive the market growth of the paints &coating. Rapid urbanization and industrialization around the globe coupled with the increasing population is also raising demand for building and infrastructure. Paints and coatings are widely used on the building to provide resistant to harsh weather conditions and rust. Thus, growth in the construction and building industry is expected to augment the market growth.
Regionally, Asia-pacific dominated the global paints and coatings market in 2019, reporting 36% market share in terms of revenue, followed by Europe and North America, respectively.
