Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The growing demand from the automotive industry is driving growth in the casting resin market. Cast iron is used extensively for making engine components, e.g. bushings, cylinder heads, shock absorbers, car bodies, suspension systems, and steering elements with the use of control arm shafts, brake blocks, drum drums, crankshafts, camshafts or heavier-duty gears to be produced in the vehicle industry. Engines that deliver higher horsepower are driving the shift in the heavy commercial vehicle and tractor segments, which will improve the use of components, such as cylinder blocks and cylinder heads, and thereby will increase the consumption of cast iron during the forecast period.
Moreover, The automotive industry in the U.S. is expected to rise rapidly on a number of factors including economic recovery and growth in the country, which has resulted in an increase in auto purchases over the forecast period. The improved production capacities of major manufacturers across the region to meet the needs of customers to remain competitive in the market. These aspects are expected to contribute to the increased use of iron casting in the automobile industry and, hence, will boost the growth of the market in focus during the forecast period.
The increasing demand for waterborne polyurethane coatings is a primary trend in the casting resin market. There are many advantages to using waterborne polyurethane coatings, which are widely utilized in the automotive, building and construction, marine, oil and gas, aerospace, and mining sectors. These coatings are used as primers as they offer excellent resistance to heat and abrasion and provide superior adhesion. Due to low VOC levels and hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions, waterborne polyurethane coatings are less toxic and flammable.
However, unlike solvent-borne coatings with severe environmental impact, waterborne polyurethane coatings release fewer organic compounds. In comparison with solvent-based coatings, waterborne polyurethanes do not require additives, thinners or stiffeners to be used and are comparatively more cost-efficient. The demand for waterborne polyurethane coatings is growing at a considerable rate worldwide which will in return fuel the growth of the casting resins market during the forecast period.
Volatile raw material prices are a major challenge faced by the casting resin market. Due to the volatility in raw material prices and a declining price of steel castings, major producers worldwide are under increasing pressure to increase their profit margins. This has a greater impact on steel producers that maintain long-term raw material supply contracts. Therefore, these producers are integrating their upstream operations vertically to overcome these issues and remain competitive in the market. Also, vertical integration will allow them to gain more control over raw material prices.
Moreover, to remain competitive, many steelmakers have invested a considerable amount in R&D to differentiate their products from those of other manufacturers. Moreover, this would lead to a squeeze on the profit margins of producers of casting and thus hamper their growth. A major source of steel scrap is the packaging sector. Thus, the fluctuating prices of iron ore also affect the demand for steel scrap, and as a result, it will pose a significant challenge to the market in focus during the forecast period.

The polyurethane segment was the largest segment and was valued at USD 3,626.16 million in 2017. Polyurethane paint can be used for a wide range of applications, such as wood coating, flooring, automotive, buildings, and construction. Polyurethane offers a very high-end premium finish to wooden surfaces. It is available in various finishes, such as high-gloss, semi-gloss, and satin. The durability of the polyurethane coating is not impaired by the amount of gloss in the topcoat; however, every subsequent coat brings it to a smooth finish.

APAC is estimated to contribute 56% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period. The growth in the commercial and residential construction sector and the increasing investments in economic development in the region are likely to fuel the demand for casting resins in end-user industries such as wood and furniture, electrical and electronics, automotive, and transportation. Such new infrastructure developments are expected to fuel the demand for polyurethane coatings during the forecast period. Per capita income in the APAC region has risen as a result of developing countries' growth, including India, China, Indonesia, and others, which is accompanied by increased foreign investments.
In APAC, the rising number of COVID-19 cases hampered the growth of various production units across the region in 2020. However, the recovery of the economies in regions such as India, China, South Korea, and Japan, among others from the COVID-19-induced crisis owing to progressing vaccination drives in APAC from the first half of 2021 which led to the removal of lockdowns and manufacturing industries resumed their operations in casting resins production which will in return create demand for casting resins. Such factors will fuel the growth of the casting resin market in the region during the forecast period.
