Buildings and Construction Sector is the second major market of polyurethane powder coatings in 2019. The polyurethane powder coatings is more durable and aesthetic. Some specific range of products provides with five years durability to somewhat extended to ten years, when the coatings has been done as per the recommendations. These polyurethane powder coatings are highly consumed by aluminum decorators, structural fabricators, and architectural steel design. The growth of polyurethane powder coatings can be taken as directly proportional to the growth of building and construction industry.

Geography - Segment Analysis

APAC dominates the polyurethane powder coatings market with a share of more than 40% followed by North America and Europe. The economy of APAC is mainly influenced by the economic dynamics of countries such as China and India, but with growing foreign direct investment for economic development of South East Asia, the current scenario is changing. Countries in South East Asia are witnessing high growth in building & construction, automotive and medical equipment industry. Countries such as China and India has large medical sector. And every year it is increasing. The demand for medical equipment is growing. Therefore, the polyurethane powder coatings is needed to protect the medical equipment from harsh chemical effect. That’s why the market of polyurethane powder coatings is growing in the reason rapidly. The coronavirus pandemic has had far-reaching consequences beyond the spread of the disease and efforts to quarantine it. As the pandemic has spread around the globe, concerns have shifted from supply-side manufacturing issues to decreased business. The current epidemic outbreak has deeply influenced consumers' daily life and in addition to the impact on construction and automotive sector. South Korea, Italy and Japan are the most affected among the major industrialized economies. Consequently, 80 percent of automotive and related companies report that Coronavirus will have a direct impact on their 2020 revenues. 78 percent of companies do not have enough staff to run a full production line. More than 80 percent of the world’s auto supply chain is connected to China. In January 2020 China’s car sales plunged by 18 percent. The China Passenger Car Association (CPCA) considers that the first two-month sales could decline by 40 percent or more compared to the same period in 2019. Production shortfalls resulting from supply chain disruptions in China will impact global automakers.

Drivers – Polyurethane Powder Coatings Market

The Growth of the Aerospace Industry

The growth of aerospace industry predominantly in North America and some countries of APAC such as China and India is determined to drive the polyurethane powder coatings market globally. Polyurethane coatings when applied on aircraft implant durability and resistance to the ultraviolet light, weathering, and chemicals that can be detrimental to the body of aircraft. Moreover, the polyurethane powder coatings protects aircraft against corrosion by reducing oxidation and itching of aluminum skin. The enhanced production of aircraft in order to suffice the foreseeable need for transportation will drive the polyurethane coating market near future.

The Application of Polyurethane Coating on Wood

The increase in disposable personal income has enabled people across the globe to afford expensive wood flooring. Polyurethane coatings are used in wooden floorings as they are found to retain the texture of the wood that deteriorates over time due to water-rot. Additionally, wood flooring is also used in some showrooms and shops. The palpable prevalence of wooden floorings and ceilings in the homes and commercial complexes across the globe is further flourishing the polyurethane coating market. 

  

Challenges – Polyurethane Powder coatings market
