Waterborne Coatings Market

Waterborne Coatings Market

The global Waterborne Coatings Market was valued at USD 79.1 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 131.8 billion by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 5.8% from 2023 to 2031. Growth is driven by increasing demand for eco-friendly coatings, stricter environmental regulations, and rising adoption in industries such as automotive, construction, and packaging.

Waterborne coatings are surface coatings or finishes that use water as solvent to disperse resin. Composition of waterborne coatings varies; some of these include up to 80% water with other solvents such as glycol ether. This makes waterborne coatings environmentally-friendly and easy to apply.

Waterborne coatings provide strong surface properties such as anti-sealing effects, high gloss, and rub resistance. These coatings are excellent primers due to their resistance to heat and abrasion. Waterborne coatings create strong adhesion and are used in thick or thin coats.

Low emission of volatile organic compounds (VOC) and decrease in associated health risks are prominent factors driving the global waterborne coatings market value. Significant rise in need for infrastructure, especially in Asia Pacific, is also augmenting market progress. Waterborne coatings applications in the building & construction sector have evolved substantially over the last few years. Coatings today have varying raw material bases as well as environmental profiles and qualities. A range of factors, including paint formulations and ecological restrictions, has influenced these market developments.
