Paints and coatings are products created by blending pigments, solvents, and binders to form various coatings, including paints, stains, varnishes, lacquers, enamels, shellacs, water-repellent coatings for concrete and masonry, and allied paint products such as putties, paint and varnish removers, paintbrush cleaners, and frit.
The primary types of paints and coatings encompass water-borne coatings, solvent-based coatings, powder coatings, and other variations. Water-borne coatings, known for their environmental friendliness, utilize water as a solvent to disperse the resin used in the coating or paint. Resins can be of different types, including acrylic, polyurethane, polyesters, epoxy, alkyd, and others. The performance categories cover commodity coatings, engineering coatings, and high-performance coatings. These paints and coatings find applications in various sectors such as architectural, automotive, wood, packaging, aerospace, and others.

This paints and coatings 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 paints and coatings market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $247.72 billion in 2023 to $267.22 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9%. The growth observed in the historic period can be credited to the boom in construction and real estate, trends in the automotive industry, growth in industrial manufacturing, adherence to environmental regulations, and fluctuations in raw material prices.
The paints and coatings market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $355.12 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%. The anticipated expansion during the forecast period is ascribed to the adoption of green and sustainable practices, swift urbanization, economic development in emerging markets, emphasis on infrastructure renewal, and adherence to stringent safety standards. Key trends expected in the forecast period encompass the integration of digitalization in manufacturing, the utilization of smart coatings and nanotechnology, continuous technological advancements, the emergence of bio-based and sustainable coatings, and a heightened focus on high-performance coatings.
The anticipated growth of the paint and coatings market is driven by the increasing consumption in end-user industries. There is a notable surge in the usage of paints and coatings across various sectors such as automotive, construction, and manufacturing. These coatings play a crucial role in protecting surfaces, enhancing aesthetics, and providing corrosion resistance in the construction industry. For example, in June 2023, data from the U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development revealed that privately owned home starts were growing at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1,631,000, marking a substantial increase over the previous predictions and rates in April 2023 and May 2022. This trend is expected to contribute to the overall growth of the paint and coatings market.
The expanding automotive industry is also set to be a key driver for the growth of the paint and coatings market. Within the automotive sector, paint and coatings are essential for protecting vehicle surfaces, ensuring aesthetic finishes, and improving overall durability. Notably, in September 2023, the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) reported a significant year-over-year increase in UK vehicle production, with passenger cars and commercial vehicles both experiencing positive growth rates. This growth in the automotive industry is directly influencing the upward trajectory of the paint and coatings market.
The COVID-19 pandemic has posed challenges for the paint and coatings market in 2020, leading to disruptions in supply chains and reduced consumption due to global lockdowns. The impact of COVID-19, characterized by flu-such as symptoms, has been felt worldwide, affecting various regions including Western Europe, North America, and Asia. Governments' measures to curb the spread of the virus have resulted in economic downturns and business setbacks. Despite the setbacks caused by this unforeseen event, the paint and coatings market is expected to recover over the forecast period, as the pandemic is considered a 'black swan' event, not indicative of underlying weaknesses in the market or the global economy.
Biocides play a crucial role in enhancing the durability and preserving the quality of paints. These additives are specifically formulated to safeguard paints from damage during storage and to prevent the growth of fungi and algae on applied surfaces. The biocides market in paints is anticipated to experience continuous growth, driven by the transition from solvent-based to water-based paints. The shift is motivated by the non-hazardous nature of water-based paints to human health and the environment, along with their effectiveness in minimizing fungal and algae proliferation. However, the adoption of environmentally friendly biocides as replacements for traditional chlorine and formaldehyde-based biocides contributes to an increase in the production costs of paints. Notable companies, such as The Dow Chemical Company, Troy Corporation, BASF SE, Thor Group, and AkzoNobel N.V., are actively incorporating biocides in their paint manufacturing processes.
Leading players in the paints and coatings industry are focusing on innovation, introducing products such as antimicrobial paints designed to inhibit the growth of harmful microorganisms on painted surfaces. These specialized paints find applications in healthcare and high-traffic environments. An example of such innovation is the Antimicrobial Kid's Paint launched by Nippon Paint Holdings Co., Ltd., a Japan-based paint and paint products manufacturing company, in January 2021. This unique paint not only demonstrates resistance to color change but also exhibits effective anti-viral performance in line with the Chinese anti-viral coating code. The Antimicrobial Kid's Paint is designed to reduce bacteria (S. aureus, E. coli, etc.) and virus (H3N2, EV71, Human-COVID-19 229E, etc.) pollution on coated surfaces, offering additional features such as formaldehyde reduction, low volatile organic compounds (VOC), and low odor performance.
