Infrared Reflecting Black Pigments Market Summary

Infrared Reflecting Black Pigment (also called IR-reflective black pigment, sometimes NIR-reflective black pigment) refers to a black pigment engineered to reflect a significant portion of infrared light-especially near-infrared (NIR, ~700-2500 nm) while still appearing black in the visible spectrum. By reducing IR absorption, it helps lower heat build-up and surface temperature in coatings, plastics, and inks exposed to sunlight (often marketed as "cool black" pigments).

Market demand is constantly increasing: Cool roofs are promoted to reduce building cooling load and urban heat island impacts. The U.S. EPA notes cool roofs can reduce peak cooling demand in air-conditioned homes (reported range 11-27%). This phenomenon has directly driven the growth in demand for infrared reflecting black pigments.

Continuous technological advancement: A deep black appearance usually implies high absorption; "cool black" requires higher NIR reflectance (or NIR transparency + reflective substrate). Standards often evaluate performance via Solar Reflectance Index (SRI) derived from solar reflectance and thermal emittance. Mixed metal oxide / spinel blacks (CICP/MMO) engineered for better NIR behavior and durability (high-temperature calcination routes, ceramic-like stability). More work on doped/engineered black pigments targeting higher NIR reflectance and additional sensing compatibility.

According to the new market research report "Global Infrared Reflecting Black Pigments Market Report 2026-2032", published by QYResearch, the global Infrared Reflecting Black Pigments market size is projected to grow from USD 81 million in 2025 to USD 115 million by 2032, at a CAGR of 5.7% during the forecast period.

This report profiles key players of Infrared Reflecting Black Pigments such as Shepherd Color, Sudarshan, DIC.

In 2025, the global top three Infrared Reflecting Black Pigments players account for 42% of market share in terms of revenue. Above figure shows the key players ranked by revenue in Infrared Reflecting Black Pigments.

Market Drivers:

Continuous technological advancement: A deep black appearance usually implies high absorption; "cool black" requires higher NIR reflectance (or NIR transparency + reflective substrate). Standards often evaluate performance via Solar Reflectance Index (SRI) derived from solar reflectance and thermal emittance. Mixed metal oxide / spinel blacks (CICP/MMO) engineered for better NIR behavior and durability (high-temperature calcination routes, ceramic-like stability). More work on doped/engineered black pigments targeting higher NIR reflectance and additional sensing compatibility.

Restraint:

Cost and value-in-use math: IR-reflective / NIR-detectable blacks typically cost more than commodity carbon black; adoption depends on whether energy savings, compliance, or recycled-content benefits justify the premium (especially in price-sensitive plastics).

Opportunity:

Policy support: Codes and programs increasingly specify radiative performance targets (solar reflectance / thermal emittance / SRI), which creates a structural pull for cool pigments that allow darker colors while meeting targets. Government guidance frames cool roofs as a UHI mitigation strategy with quantifiable cooling-demand impacts.
