Elastomeric Coatings Market

North America and Asia - Linchpin of Growth Opportunities

The elastomeric coatings market in North America and Asia will reach US$ 3 Bn towards the end of the projection timeframe, respectively. As these regions house the fastest-growing markets for infrastructure expenditure - China, India, and the US - manufacturers are focusing on conspicuous investments in innovation in these countries. Moreover, China is banking on lean and industry 4.0 techniques for production boost to address labor-cost inflation. This would further garner huge attention from market players.

Greater Focus on Product Customization

Manufacturers must lay extra focus on customizing products and formulations to align with specific customer requirements. Variations in the concentrations of isocyanate, polyether, polyester amine, chain extenders, and other additives have a noteworthy impact on the final properties of elastomeric coatings. For instance, Acrymax Technologies Inc. has developed customized elastomeric coatings that offer color matching, which is one of the prominently demanded customer services. Additionally, the company has manufactured a low-viscosity waterproof coatings formulation for specific client requirements.

How Growth will Unfold

Ailing infrastructure assets and demographic growth are influencing governments to scale up their expenditure in several construction projects. Influenced by these shifts, manufacturers continue to reap substantial value creation from the building & construction sector, which captures about 3/5 of overall revenue. Moreover, benefits of elastomers such as high anti-corrosive and anti-scratch aspects are making them a favorite in the automotive & transportation industry, where they are used in rail car linings and railway track containers.

KEY FACTORS INFLUENCING ELASTOMERIC COATINGS MARKET

Growing Usage in Building and Construction Industry

For the past few years, building and construction industry has been a significant end user of elastomeric coatings. These coatings are employed in bridging cracks on roof tops, exterior concrete walls, and stucco, which prevent water from penetrating into interior constructed walls.

Moreover, elastomeric coatings provide resistance to the walls and roofs from dew formation and settling of dirt, and stability under different climate conditions. Silicone, acrylic, and polyurethane polymers are the common elastomeric coatings. These polymers stop water droplets from entering the interior concrete layer and have high surface tension that causes beading of rainwater.

New Window of Application in Manufacturing Biodegradable Cardiovascular Stents

Cardiovascular stents continue to evolve - enhancing the efficacy and reducing the risk associated with these devices. Cardiovascular stents coated with elastomeric coatings prevent cracking and peeling of coat which can lead to inflammatory reactions as imperfect stents can lead to uneven drug level release by vessel wall. In recent years, biodegradable stents have been gaining huge traction across the globe. It is highly corrosion resistant and reduces thrombotic deposition in vitro cardiovascular stents. The result is likely to lead to increased demand for elastomeric coatings.

High Growth Prospects in North America and APAC

North America and APAC will continue to generate higher revenue share in the elastomeric coatings market over the forecast period. These regions are the major volumetric contributor to the elastomeric coatings market, due to their large consumer base along with rising building & construction activities. Moreover, China is currently executing a large number of airport construction projects and the government has also rolled out massive construction plans for next 10 years. This, in turn, will boost the demand for elastomeric coatings.
