Metallic powder coating is a finishing technique that involves applying powdered pigments containing metal particles to surfaces, resulting in a shimmering or reflective appearance. This coating process utilizes electrostatic charging to help the powder adhere to the substrate before it is cured with heat.
The main types of metallic powder coating include the bonding process, the blending process, and the extrusion process. The bonding process is a method for joining two materials together, creating a strong and durable connection. It incorporates various resin types such as epoxy polyester, polyester, epoxy, and polyurethane, along with pigments such as aluminum and mica. This process is utilized across multiple sectors, including architectural, automotive, appliance, furniture, and leisure equipment.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs have impacted the metallic powder coating market by increasing costs of imported pigments, resins, and coating equipment. The effects are most pronounced in automotive and architectural segments, particularly in regions dependent on imported coating materials such as Asia Pacific and Europe. Higher tariffs have affected pricing and project costs. However, they have also encouraged local sourcing and domestic coating production capabilities.
The metallic powder coating market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides metallic powder coating market statistics, including metallic powder coating industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a metallic powder coating market share, detailed metallic powder coating market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the metallic powder coating industry. This metallic powder coating market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The metallic powder coating market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.52 billion in 2025 to $2.69 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth of automotive manufacturing, demand for decorative metal finishes, shift away from liquid coatings, expansion of construction activities, early adoption of powder coating processes.
The metallic powder coating market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.5 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for sustainable coatings, growth of electric vehicles, expansion of architectural applications, innovation in metallic pigments, rising appliance manufacturing. Major trends in the forecast period include rising demand for aesthetic surface finishes, growing adoption of powder coating technologies, increasing use in automotive and architecture, expansion of eco friendly coating solutions, higher focus on durable decorative coatings.
The growing production of automobiles is expected to drive the expansion of the metallic powder coating market in the coming years. Automobiles are motorized vehicles primarily used for passenger transportation on roads, available in various designs and powered by either internal combustion engines or electric motors. Automobile production is rising due to increasing global demand for personal mobility and the rapid growth of electric vehicles, which are transforming consumer preferences and stimulating technological advancements within the industry. In automobile manufacturing, metallic powder coating is applied to improve durability, enhance corrosion resistance, and deliver a high-quality metallic appearance to vehicle components. For example, in March 2025, the European Automobile Manufacturers Association, a Belgium-based industry lobbying and standards organization, reported that South American car production increased by 1.7% in 2024 compared to 2023, led by Brazil, which recorded a 6.3% rise, producing approximately 1.9 million vehicles. Therefore, the rising production of automobiles is contributing to the growth of the metallic powder coating market.
Key players in the metallic powder coating sector are concentrating on developing advanced coating solutions, such as superdurable low-energy powder coatings, to improve finish quality, durability, and environmental resistance. Superdurable low-energy powder coatings provide enhanced durability and resistance to environmental factors while curing at lower temperatures, leading to reduced energy consumption and production costs. For instance, in September 2024, AkzoNobel NV, a Netherlands-based manufacturer of paints and coatings, introduced the Interpon D2525 Low-E range, a series of superdurable low-bake powder coatings designed to protect architectural surfaces in harsh conditions. These innovative coatings can cure at lower temperatures (as low as 150°C), resulting in up to 20% energy savings and 25% faster curing times compared to traditional powders. The Interpon D2525 Low-E coatings are suitable for various metal surfaces, including facades, windows, and railings, offering excellent durability and color retention.
In September 2024, Gleco Plating Inc., a U.S.-based plating service provider, acquired 3-D Powder Coating Pty Ltd. for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition aims to enhance Gleco Plating Inc.'s surface finishing capabilities and service offerings, allowing it to meet the rising demand for high-quality, durable finishes across multiple industries. 3-D Powder Coating Pty Ltd is an Australian company specializing in powder coating solutions for various metal types.
