Aircraft Paints Industry Overview
The aircraft paints market is semi-consolidated, wherein a large market share is occupied by manufacturers like Akzo Nobel N.V., PPG Industries Inc., IHI Ionbond AG, Mankiewicz Gebr. & Co., and Hentzen Coatings Inc. Currently, most paints and coating providers are present in North America and Europe. An increase in their global presence will help them gain a competitive advantage over others.
Also, the development of paints that reduce weight, increase fuel efficiency, improve the stealth characteristics of aircraft, and are eco-friendly will help companies attain a better position in the market. In April 2023, AkzoNobel announced that airlines and operators could optimize their fleets' paint maintenance schedules through a digital management system developed by AkzoNobel's Aerospace Coatings business. Developments such as these will help companies to gain a competitive advantage over others.
