The coatings raw materials industry research report provides comprehensive data (region-wise segment analysis), with forecasts and estimates in "USD billion" for the period 2025-2029, as well as historical data from 2019-2023 for the following segments.
The resins segment is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period.
In the dynamic world of coatings raw materials, acrylic and alkyd resins dominate the landscape. Acrylic resins, derived from synthetic sources, are the most widely used binders in paints and coatings applications due to their superior performance and versatility. They are integral to decorative paints and have gained popularity for their eco-friendly attributes, as they emit fewer volatile organic compounds (VOCs) compared to traditional solvent-based alternatives. Alkyd resins, derived from natural and synthetic sources, have been the second-most common type of resin in coatings formulations. However, their usage has been on the decline, particularly in regions like North America and the EU, due to stringent environmental regulations limiting volatile organic compound emissions.
Materials science continues to evolve, with innovations in powder coatings, water-based formulations, and UV-curable resins gaining traction. Powder coatings offer eco-friendly advantages, as they generate minimal waste and require no solvents. Water-based coatings, on the other hand, provide a more sustainable alternative to solvent-based coatings, contributing to the growing trend of sustainability initiatives in various industries, including general industry, electronics, and transportation. Ultraviolet (UV)-curable resins are gaining popularity due to their quick curing properties, making them suitable for high-performance applications in aerospace, automotive, and industrial coatings. High-performance resins, such as polyurethane and acrylic, are increasingly being used in protective coatings for infrastructure development, energy production, and resource extraction, ensuring product durability and weather resistance under harsh conditions.
Eco-friendly alternatives, such as bio-based resins and additives, are being adopted to meet the demands of regulatory standards and consumer preferences for sustainable, low-emission products. Specialty resins, including elastomeric and thermosetting resins, cater to specific application techniques and industries, such as flooring, closures, and furniture. In the realm of infrastructure development, materials science plays a crucial role in creating eco-friendly, high-performance solutions for construction materials, including cupboards, sidings, and architectural applications. These materials must meet stringent regulatory standards for durability, weather resistance, and adhesion, ensuring long-term sustainability and performance. In the energy sector, high-performance resins are essential for protecting critical infrastructure, such as wind turbines, solar panels, and oil & gas equipment, from harsh environmental conditions.
The mining industry also relies on resilient coatings to protect equipment from corrosion and weathering. The market is a diverse and dynamic landscape, driven by advancements in materials science, regulatory requirements, and consumer preferences for eco-friendly, high-performance solutions. From electric vehicles and aerospace to infrastructure development and resource extraction, the applications for coatings raw materials are vast and ever-evolving.
The Resins segment was valued at USD 30.15 billion in 2019 and showed a gradual increase during the forecast period.
APAC is estimated to contribute 52% 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 automotive industry's evolution, with the rise of electric vehicles, is another critical factor driving market growth.
Materials science advancements in UV-curable acrylics and solvent-based coatings are essential for manufacturing high-performance batteries and improving electric cars' energy efficiency. Moreover, the increasing focus on sustainability and regulatory compliance in industries like aerospace, electronics, and oil & gas is leading to the adoption of eco-friendly alternatives to traditional solvent-based coatings. Efficiency and durability are crucial factors in the market, especially in industries like general industry, mining, and shipbuilding. Coatings with superior weather resistance and adhesion properties are essential for protecting infrastructure and equipment from harsh conditions. In addition, the increasing emphasis on product durability and eco-friendly initiatives is driving the demand for high-performance resins and formulations in various industries.
In the flooring sector, water-based coatings and powder technologies are gaining popularity due to their low VOC content and ease of application. These coatings offer excellent performance, making them suitable for use in various applications, including closures, cupboards, and furniture. The regulatory landscape is also evolving, with stricter environmental regulations and ecological standards driving the demand for eco-friendly coatings. In conclusion, the market is witnessing significant growth due to the surge in infrastructure development, the automotive industry's evolution, and the increasing focus on sustainability and regulatory compliance across various industries. The market's dynamics are shaped by factors such as the demand for high-performance coatings, the adoption of eco-friendly alternatives, and the need for coatings with superior durability and weather resistance.
