Swift Infrastructural Development to Drive Market Growth

The market for industrial coatings is driven by multiple factors. One of the biggest factors is rapid urbanization and infrastructure growth in several emerging economies. Industrial coatings find intensive application in the construction industry, serving as a corrosion-resistant and protective agent for metal and plastic structures. Industrial coatings are also used to make concrete and steel less vulnerable to fire and other hazards. Apart from the construction sector, the automotive sector is also helping in driving the growth of the global market. Industrial coatings companies are also concentrating on research and development activities that will help drive growth in the coming years.

Strict regulations against solventborne coatings, issues regarding getting thin films in powder coatings, and fluctuations in the price of raw materials are some of the key factors that may impede the growth of the market in the forecast period.
