Market Trends of Powder Coatings Industry

This section covers the major market trends shaping the Powder Coatings Market according to our research experts:

Growing Demand from Architectural and Decorative Segment

  • One of the fastest-growing markets for powder coatings is the architectural and building market, primarily due to powder coating durability.
  • Moreover, polyester resin technology expansion, namely stable, low-gloss formulas, provided architectural market opportunities that promoted powder coating growth.
  • Due to the variety of colours and finishes available in powder coatings, many construction companies are turning to powder coatings to provide long-term exterior finishes for outdoor venues and public work projects.
  • In April 2021, PT Jababeka Morotai, a subsidiary of Jababeka Group, collaborated with the OISCA International College Foundation (OISCA International) to develop the Morotai Special Economic Zone (KEK). Under this collaboration, a World War II monument and supporting facilities will get constructed in KEK, North Maluku Province, Indonesia.
  • In the North American market, green construction practices explosion and globalization have further increased the awareness regarding powder coatings as a viable option to coat architectural aluminum.
  • In 2021, according to the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), 1,105 projects had been certified with LEED certification for green buildings in the top 10 states of the US with 247 million GSF land. It will likely provide a massive opportunity for powder coatings in the region.
  • As per US Census, the new construction value was around USD 1.62 trillion, with a notable growth of 8.46% from USD 1.49 trillion in 2020. The upward growth trend is expected to boost the market and create lucrative opportunities in the forecast period.
  • According to FIEC, the construction industry witnessed a notable growth in total investment, with 5.2% in 2021, and amounted to EUR 1.6 trillion (~USD 1.70 trillion). The most significant rise in investment was observed in Italy (16.4%), followed by Estonia (10.7%), Greece (10.6%), and France (10.5%). A rapid increase in investment in European Union is anticipated to trigger growth opportunities for the Architectural and Decorative segment, which in turn would help the development of the Powder Coating market.
  • Therefore, with the abovementioned factors, the demand for powder coatings in the architectural and decorative industries will likely increase over the forecast period.
