Waterborne coatings are those which use water as solvent to dissolve a resin to be applied on a substrate. These coatings are eco-friendly and have relatively low VOC content and are popularly known as green coatings. Huge investment on R&D to introduce green coating products are contributing to the market growth. Stringent regulations on use of low VOC products and growing application areas are driving the market of waterborne coatings.
Polyurethane coating is the fastest growing segment with increasing application in the construction and automotive industry. Architectural sector contributes to majority of the waterborne coatings market share and is expected to continue dominating during the forecast period. This sector has growth due to not only increase in new construction projects, but also rise in repair and maintenance services on relatively older construction sites. Asia Pacific is witnessing fastest growth due to increasing manufacturing base and increasing purchasing power with emerging economic countries. The waterborne coatings market is fragmented and faces high competition with many multinational players. Companies such as Sherwin-Williams Company, PPG Industries Inc., Akzo Nobel N.V., along with few other key players cover the major market.
