The growth of the global construction coatings marketis directly proportional to the growth of the global construction industry. The growth of the construction industry mainly in the emerging economies of BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) has been one of the major factors driving the demand for construction coatings in the world.
The construction industry saw a downturn in 2008 - 2009 on account of the global recession which in turn impacted the demand for coatings used in the construction industry. However, the market condition improved during the post-recession era and is expected to remain steady growth over the forecast period owing to growing constructional activities in emerging economies. Growth in developed regions such as the U.S. and Western Europe is expected to remain stagnant over the forecast period.
A growing number of residential and commercial buildings coupled with a growing population and growing urbanization mainly in China and India is expected to drive the market over the forecast period. On the other hand series of world-class events such as the FIFA World Cup in 2014 and the Olympics in 2016 being hosted by Brazil are also expected to have a positive impact on the overall market for construction coatings. Government initiatives to provide a business-friendly environment in these countries have also increased the foreign investment in the construction industry which in turn has been driving the demand for construction coatings.
However, the growing environmental concerns linked with the production and application of these petroleum-derived coatings have been hindering the market growth in the past and this trend is expected to continue over the forecast period. To reduce the reliance on petroleum-derived coatings, the industry has been focusing on developing bio-based coatings which provide an environmentally friendly solution and help companies to achieve sustainability.
Water-based coatings are expected to remain a preferred choice over solvent-based coatings over the forecast period. Water-based construction coatings are relatively eco-friendly when compared with solvent-based construction coatings. Owing to which water-based construction coatings are expected to register a healthy growth rate over the forecast period.
