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.
Increasing demand for eco-friendly coatings is notably driving the market growth. Traditional coatings contain high levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which contribute to air pollution. Their production process involves using toxic chemicals that can harm the environment and human health. Conversely, eco-friendly coatings are made from sustainable raw materials, have low VOC emissions, and are a safer and more sustainable alternative to conventional coatings. Moreover, governments across the globe are implementing regulations that mandate companies to minimize their emissions and environmental impact. This has spurred the development of eco-friendly coatings that adhere to these regulations, and companies are investing in sustainable technologies to comply with these requirements.
In addition, the growth in demand for eco-friendly coatings is driven by consumer demand, government regulations, and the need for sustainable and environment-friendly products, which will further result in the Asia Pacific - packaging coatings market expansion. Therefore, the development and adoption of these coatings are expected to increase, which will drive the growth of the packaging coatings market in APAC during the forecast period.
Increasing focus on UV-cured coatings and nanocoatings is an emerging trend shaping the market growth. The Asia-Pacific (APAC) - packaging coatings market is highly fragmented, and vendors are investing more in research and development to manufacture innovative protective coatings. Protective nanocoatings and UV-cured packaging coatings are some of the coatings that are gaining popularity in the market. Protective nanocoatings are cost-effective and more durable than other coatings, making them a preferred choice. They have numerous applications in various industries such as transport, industrial machinery, marine, and architectural industries. On the other hand, UV-cured packaging coatings offer quick drying time, superior abrasion and adhesion, and increased operational speed.
Also, they improve flexibility, product quality, finish, and resistance to chemicals and corrosion. The use of UV radiation in the drying process makes them environmentally friendly since they do not release harmful substances such as VOC or hydrocarbons, thus supporting the APAC - packaging coatings market growth. Therefore, the growing demand for UV-cured coatings and nanocoatings is expected to drive the growth of the packaging coatings market in APAC during the forecast period.
The need for high capital investments is a significant challenge hindering the market growth. The Asia-Pacific (APAC) - packaging coatings market region demands a huge capital investment due to the substantial cost involved in building and maintaining production facilities, research and development activities, and marketing efforts. The key factors contributing to such high capital investment in the Asia Pacific - packaging coatings market include the need to establish production facilities, perform research and development tasks, and procure raw materials. Since packaging coatings are manufactured in large quantities, specialized facilities and equipment are required to ensure consistency in quality and production efficiency.
Furthermore, the prices of raw materials can be volatile, which can negatively impact production costs and profitability. Therefore, the high capital investment required to enter and remain competitive in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) - packaging coatings market can act as a significant barrier to entry for new players and can also affect the profitability of existing manufacturers during the forecast period.

The solvent-borne segment was the largest segment and was valued at USD 615.76 million in 2017. Due to the introduction of well-defined regulations related to packaging coatings, the adoption rate of solvent-borne technology for the APAC - Packaging Coatings Market is volatile. Also, solvent-borne packaging coatings are preferred for applications that do not allow waterborne packaging coatings to cure properly in humid environments. Solvent-borne coatings are thinned and cleaned using other solvents, such as turpentine. Furthermore, when compared to waterborne coatings, solvent-borne coatings are known for their relative ease of application, durability, and finish. Thus, these factors are anticipated to drive the growth of the solvent-borne segment of the packaging coatings market in APAC during the forecast period.
