- Japan and South Korea will hold more than 14% of the global market share in 2021, backed by increasing production and demand of electronic components made in these countries and strict regulations regarding control emission of VOCs in these regions.
- Ultraviolet soft touch polyurethane coating segment is expected to grow at more than 8.1% CAGR throughout the forecast period due to its high demand of such coatings in packaging industry due to its chemical inertness and eco-friendly characteristics.
- The transport and automotive segment is predicted to account for more than 37% of global soft touch polyurethane coatings market share due to increasing demand for luxurious and rich look interior among car enthusiasts.
“Rising production of premium electronic products and increasing demand for scratch resistant and drop resistant coatings to protect these products is expected to spur the soft touch polyurethane coatings sales,” says the FMI analyst.
Soft touch polyurethane coatings are highly effective in protecting wooden items from decaying and pest infestation.
Stringent government regulations imposed to reduce the emission of volatile organic content (VOC) is prompting the market players to develop environment friendly coatings. In 2019, Environment Protection Agency New England has mandated manufacturing facilities to reduce its VOC emission by making process changes and installing air pollution control equipment’s.
This is expected to bode well with the market growth in upcoming years. Many market players are switching from solvent based coating to producing water based coating as solvent based coatings has high VOC content. Increasing research and development for sustainable water based coating production while eliminating side reactions will boost the market growth over the forecast period.
