The production of automobiles in the APAC region surpassed 45 million units in 2014 while the global market witnessed a growth rate of over 6% early that year. It is positively impacting the demand for automotive refinish coatings and helping the market to grow at a CAGR of over 6% until 2019. The factors that influence the market are the growing number of vehicles in operation, growing number of vehicles under repair, accident rates, the age of vehicles, and the number of miles driven.
The increase in demand is fuelled by a relatively higher number of vehicles in India and China. Key technological advances and the growing prevalence of water-based coatings are expected to drive the market further in the next four years.
The automotive solvent based refinish coatings dominated the market in 2014 and the trend is expected to continue with the segment crossing $2.5 billion in revenues until 2019. However, the growth of this segment is likely to be slowest among due to the growing popularity of other technologies.
As regulations are expected to grow more stringent in economies such as China and Japan, the growing awareness about the benefits of waterborne coatings is expected to drive its demand during the forecast period.
In terms of volume, the polyurethane automotive coating market stood at close to 45% of the market. Its demand is expected to increase at a rapid rate during the forecast period due to its excellent durability, resistance to corrosion and abrasions. The demand for acrylics will also gain traction on account of the increased adoption of waterborne acrylics for automotive basecoats. The rise in the number of OEMs using waterborne acrylics for their product lines is likely to boost this segment in the future.
China’s refinish market is expected to exhibit incessant growth in the years to come. It is especially driven by the demand emerging from the high-end cars segment. The Chinese market is also inclined towards a greater adoption of green technology to address concerns regarding air pollution.
The India market has witnessed higher revenues from the OEM coatings market in terms of volume. The sales volumes demonstrated the growth potential of the segment in 2014, and it will continue to expand during the forecast period.
The other leading vendors of the market include Berger Paints, Color Communication, Jotun, KCC, Sherwin-Williams, Valspar, and NOROO.
The automotive refinish market is largely consolidated with the top six vendors accounting for close to 85% of the market. A considerable number of regional vendors also exist in the market. These regional companies are expected to invest in product innovation to expand their market shares while competing with the leading vendors on price and performance.
