Insight by Resin Type

Acrylics segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2019. This can be attributed to its strong polymeric structure and ability to irradiate ultraviolet rays. Moreover, the acrylics have the ability to retain color vibrancy and gloss. Acrylics also improve the durability of the substrate and provide protection from external factors.

Epoxy segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period on account of the increasing use of epoxy in paints & coatings. In addition, the growing demand for epoxy architectural coatings in residential sectors such as new construction and renovation activities. Furthermore, the rising demand in the industrial applications is likely to complement the growth of epoxy coatings over the forecast period.

Insight by Technology

Based on technology, the global architectural coatings market is bifurcated into water-borne, solvent-borne, and powder. In 2019, the solvent-borne segment recorded highest market share among all. Solvent-based coatings are highly resistant to extreme environment and the solvent-based coatings have a wide range of applications across the residential and non-residential sectors. While the shelf-life of solvent-based coatings is comparatively higher, the VOCs used for manufacturing coatings is likely to hinder market growth over the forecast period.

Geographic Overview

The market has been segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. In 2019, North America accounted for over 20% of the global market, wherein the U.S. was the largest contributor in terms of revenue.

The growth prospects of the U.S. are likely to be impacted by the escalating US-China trade war. The retaliatory measures taken by the trading partners of the U.S. are likely to weigh down the broader momentum in the economy. American companies have historically benefitted from an open and seamless global trade agreement. However, in the recent years, tensions have been rising, as the trade policy has shifted to promote domestic companies.

The increase in federal government spending is likely to offset some of the impact of tariff wars. In the short-term, stakeholders will be looking at making the necessary adjustments; however, if a concrete solution is not found by respective governments, the long-term impact can be significant for both the US and Chinese economies.
