Polyurethane Coating Market - Forecast(2023 - 2028)
Polyurethane Coating Market Overview
The Polyurethane Coating market size is estimated
to reach US$30.5 billion by 2027 after growing a CAGR of 5.1% from 2022 to
2027. Polyurethane coating is a layer of polyurethane applied on surface of
substrate for protecting from various types of defects like corrosion,
weathering, abrasion and deteriorating process. Polyurethanes are formed by combining a variety
of chemicals with isocyanates being the most important ingredient. Polyurethanes based on aliphatic polyisocyanates are
renowned for their outstanding mechanical & electrical properties and are used
as finish coat in surface coating like in automotive coating, aircraft coating
and vessels & pipeline coating. Hence, due to its corrosion and abrasion
resistance nature, polyurethane coating is used in various sectors like automotive, construction, oil & gas, aircraft, electronics and textiles.
Factors such as increase in production of automotive, growing construction
activities, high sales of textile items and increase in oil production are
driving polyurethane coating market growth. However, the sensitivity of polyurethane
coating towards moisture can affect its usage in industrial sectors, which can
hamper the polyurethane coating industry growth.
COVID-19 Impact
Polyurethane coating due to its rich corrosion and
abrasion resistance nature, is majorly used in sectors like automotive,
construction and oil & gas sector for surface coating. The lockdown
implemented by countries all across the world caused restrictions on the
functioning of these sectors which decreased their productivity. For instance,
according to International Organization of Motor Vehicles Manufacturer, in
2020, the global vehicles production was 77.7 million units compared to 92.1
million units made in 2019 globally. Also, according to Eurostat, in March
& April of 2020, construction production in EU declined by 25.9%. Further,
according to US Energy Information Administration, in 2020, US crude oil
production decreased by 8%, showing the largest annual decrease on record.
Polyurethane is used in automotive coating as scratch resistant paint, in
construction sector it is sprayed on steel & concrete to make them less
susceptible to rust, while in oil & gas sector it is used in pipeline
coating and for refurbishing of oil extracting tools. The decrease in productivity
of automotive, construction and oil & gas sector, reduced the usage of
polyurethane coating in them, which negatively impacted the polyurethane market
growth.

2020, while Chinese car production was 14 million units showing 10.2% increase
for same period. Also, according to Eurostat, in October 2021, construction
production increased by 4.2% in the EU. Further, according
to Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, in 2021, China’s garment
export grew by 8.4% and operating profit of Chinese textile firms increased by
25.4% due to high textile consumption. Polyurethane coating is used as scratch
resistance paint in cars, as corrosion resistance agent for construction
material like steel, and it is used to makes clothes water resistance. The increase in productivity of these sectors
will lead to more usage of polyurethane coating in them, which will boost
polyurethane industry growth.
Polyurethane Coating Market Segment Analysis – By End Use Industry
Automotive
sector held a significant share in polyurethane coating market in 2021, with a
share of over 21%. Polyurethane coating has high comprehensive performance, chipping
resistance and chemical resistance. Hence, due to such rich & durable
properties it is used in automotive bodies as primer, intermediate coat and
finishing paint. The rise in production of automotive on account of growing demand has
positively impacted the usage of polyurethane automotive sector. For instance,
according to European Automobile Manufacture Association, in 2021, 2.1 million
commercial vehicles were produced in the EU, showing 1% increase compared to
2020. According to another report by European
Automobile Manufacture Association, in 2019, new-car registrations
increased by 1.2% across the European Union, reaching more than 15.3 million
units in total. Such increase in production and consumption of automotive
vehicles will lead to more usage of polyurethane coating in automotive sector,
resulting in more growth of polyurethane coating industry.
Polyurethane Coating Market Segment Analysis – By Geography
Asia-Pacific held the largest share in polyurethane coating market in 2021, with a share of over 34%. The region consists of economies like China, India, Australia, and Vietnam which consists of major end user of polyurethane coating such as automotive, textile, and construction. Rapid economic developments of these nations have increased their industrial productivity. For instance, according to International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturer, in 2021, Asia held 50% share of global automobile production volume, with China producing 26 million units, India 4.3 million units, Thailand 1.6 million units, and Indonesia 1.12 million units.

Increase in Volume of Crude Oil Production
Polyurethane is a perfect middle
ground between plastics and metals, capable of withstanding formidable levels
of corrosiveness, pressure, abrasion, impact and heat. Polyurethane
coating is applied on tools and components relating to oil extraction,
transporting or compressing, in order to increase their durability. Growing economies has increased their demand for fuel energy,
especially in transportation sector for taking goods & materials from
producers to consumers. Hence, such growing demand for oil fuel has increase
the production output of crude oil. For instance, according to Organization of
Petroleum Exporting Countries, in November 2021, crude oil output increased to
9.87 million barrel per day in Saudi Arabia, 4.24 million barrel per day in
Iraq and 1.42 million barrel per day in Nigeria. Such increase in oil
production will lead to more usage of polyurethane coating for tool &
component coating. This will positively impact the growth of polyurethane
coating industry.
Polyurethane Coating Market Challenge
Sensitivity of Polyurethane towards Moisture
While polyurethane coatings are ideal for numerous applications, they are not a one-size-fits-all solution. One of the main shortcomings of this coating material is its sensitivity to moisture. When moisture attacks polyurethane-coated floors, bubbles can form, leaving unsightly stains and imperfections on the surface. Hence, due to this weakness, polyurethane coatings are unsuitable for areas with high levels of moisture or humidity. Moreover, polyurethane also has a limited pot life, i.e., the coating remains viscous for a limited time, after which it is no longer usable. Such sensitivity of polyurethane coating towards moisture can restrict its usage in some sectors, which can hamper the growth of polyurethane coating industry.
