The competitive landscape of the Coatings market in Romania has witnessed dynamic changes. During 1960-1980, the focus was on the development of the Coatings industry. The country was known for the production of coatings in Central and Eastern Europe during the sixties. However, with the fall of the socialist economy during the late 1980s, a decrease in domestic demand, and a consequent decline in exports to the Soviet Union, the Coatings industry in the country witnessed a decline in production by over 50-55 percent. Such developments affected several small and medium-sized companies that operated in the Coatings Market in Romania in the early 1990s.
By mid-1990s, the Coatings market witnessed a high degree of consolidation, with the merger of several key small and medium-sized vendors into a single, state-owned group. With economic liberalization, a number of firms in the group were privatized and restructured to become more competitive in the domestic market. Since 2000, the Coatings Market in Romania has witnessed the entry of foreign vendors. Such companies acquired indigenous vendors, thereby capturing market shares.
The volume of powder coatings consumed in Romania was 10 kT in 2014, and Technavio analysts predict a rise to about 13 kT by 2019, growing at a CAGR of over 5 percent over the forecast period. The Powder Coatings market in Romania is witnessing varying degrees of consolidation and is currently dominated by global vendors such as Akzo Nobel, Axalta, Jotun, and PPG.
In a recent development Valspar acquired Inver in the second half of FY2013, thereby strengthening its position in the market. Inver, an Italian provider of industrial coatings, operates a powder coating facility in Romania and other countries in Europe such as Italy, France, and the UK. Through this acquisition, Valspar is expected to cater to the demand for both liquid and powder coatings for applications such as off-road equipment, architectural aluminum windows, and railways and trams. In addition, other key vendors in the market are also expected to pursue strategic acquisitions in the country.
