The global powder coatings market size was valued at USD 10.58 billion in 2020 and is anticipated to register a considerable CAGR during the forecast period, 2021-2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the growing number of consumer goods companies globally.
Powder coating is a form of dry coating, which is applied as a free-flowing powder. It is regarded as a clean, safe, long-lasting, and powerful alternative to liquid-based coatings with superior performance qualities. It has a high recyclable content, better durability, and abrasion resistance. This type of coating is available in a wide range of colors and textures and is widely used in the industrial, architectural, automotive, and other fields.
The COVID-19 outbreak has brought negative impact on the powder coatings market due to emergency restrictions and lockdowns by respective regulatory bodies across countries, which resulted in disruption in demand and supply chain globally. The market is expected to recover soon as gradual lifting of emergency lockdown by governments across the globe.
Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities
- Wide application of the coatings in the healthcare sector and rising demand for medical devices globally are expected to boost the market in the coming years.
- Growing need for powder coatings in various end-use industries including automotive and industrial sectors is a key factor driving the market.
- Higher energy consumption associated with the use of coatings is anticipated to hinder the market expansion during the projected period.
- Slowdown in automotive production presents a major challenge due to the COVID pandemic. This is anticipated to hamper the market growth in the projected period.
- Increasing investments in the infrastructure and construction industry is projected to create significant growth opportunities for the market in the near future.
