The global anticorrosion coatings market is expected to register a CAGR of 5.20% during the forecast period, 2018 to 2023. AsiaPacific dominated the global anticorrosion coatings market, with China taking the lead in the region, owing to its massive manufacturing and industrial sectors.
Robust Development of Shipbuilding and Offshore Engineering Industries
The global shipbuilding industry is expected to register a CAGR of 3% to 5% through the next five years, with AsiaPacific registering the highest growth. In AsiaPacific, though China, Japan, and South Korea lead the ship building industry, new shipping hubs are appearing in Vietnam, India, and the Philippines. Australia and New Zealand are both island nations and the geographical scale of Australia's coastline and waterways has resulted in a large number of recreational, commercial, and defense vessels. Thus, the marine industry is growing in both these nations. Such development in shipbuilding activities is expected to drive the anticorrosion coatings market in the marine segment through the forecast period.
Marine is the largest enduser industry, accounting for more than 20% share in the global anticorrosion coatings market.
Solventborne The dominating Technology Segment
In 2017, the solventborne technology captured the maximum share of the overall market and is expected to witness a moderate growth rate during the forecast period. The demand for solventborne is increasing because of its superior block resistance feature, lesser drying time, and widespread applications. However, waterborne coatings segment is expected to register the fastest growth, owing to its lowVOC content.
AsiaPacific to Dominate the Market Growth Through 2023
AsiaPacific dominated the global anticorrosion coatings in 2017 and is expected to register the fastest CAGR through the forecast period. Growing oil gas reserves in China and India, continued need for maintenance in the transportation industry, and accelerating energy demand in various regions in AsiaPacific are driving the anticorrosion coatings market.
