A Look into Intumescent Coatings Industry……Deep Analysis…..
The global intumescent
coatings market size was valued
at USD 927.6 million in 2018 and is
anticipated to progress at a CAGR of
5.1% from 2019 to 2025. High product demand in the oil & gas sector
owing to stringent regulations coupled with increasing shale gas exploration
activities across the globe is likely to propel the market growth. Moreover,
demand from the automotive segment is expected to fuel market growth over the
forecast period.
The global intumescent coatings market
size is expected to reach USD 1.31 billion by 2025, according to a new report
by Grand View Research, Inc. It is projected to expand at a CAGR of 5.1% over
the forecast period. Extensive usage of passive fire protection for steel
structures used in offshore and onshore extraction and purification and
refining in the oil & gas industry is the key factor boosting the market
growth. In addition, rising shale gas exploration coupled with expanding oil
& gas industry in Asia Pacific is expected to propel demand over the
forecast period. The industry is characterized by the presence of a large
number of raw material suppliers leading to an increase in the switching
ability of the manufacturers and high bargaining power.
However, volatile prices of the raw
materials, such as epoxy resins is expected to restrain the growth to some
extent. Moreover, several regulations limiting the presence of Volatile Organic
Compounds (VOCs) in the formulation will also hinder market growth. On the
other hand, development of advanced products that are compliant with the
regulations set by the European Commission is expected to drive the demand over
the next nine years. The market in Asia Pacific witnessed a significant
expansion owing to increased oil & gas exploration activities, particularly
in the South China Sea. Furthermore, infrastructure development in emerging
economies including India, Indonesia, and Vietnam is likely to contribute to
the market development over the forecast period.
The market is fragmented in nature with the
presence of a few key companies, such as AkzoNobel N.V, Jotun Group, Hempel
Marine Paints, Null Fire, and Sherwin-Williams Company, and medium- and
small-sized regional firms, such as Carboline; No-Burn, Inc.; and Albi
Manufacturing. The market is
highly competitive and the manufacturers compete on the basis of product
quality and the technology used for production. They also emphasize on price
differentiation as a major strategy in a bid to increase market share and
follow an integrated approach to reduce costs and maximize profits.

Further key findings from the study suggest:
·
Water-based coatings is
expected to be the fastest-growing technology segment of the global intumescent
coatings market from 2019 to 2025
·
Oil & gas end-use segment
held the largest share of the market in 2018 and is expected to continue its
dominance over the forecast period
·
Asia Pacific was the largest
market in 2018 and is projected to expand further at the highest CAGR during
the forecast years
·
Cellulosic is projected to be
the largest, as well as the fastest-growing, application segment over the next
few years
Increasing
investments for shale gas exploration in U.S. is also likely to propel the
product demand over the next nine years. Introduction of advanced thin film,
light-weight intumescent coatings is expected to drive the demand further. The
industry exhibits low threat of substitution by alternatives, such as
vermiculite fire protection, on account of superior properties of the
intumescent coatings. Increased awareness about fireproofing of residential
buildings is likely to impel market growth over the forecast period.
Rapidly
expanding construction sector and large-scale infrastructure developments in
developing economies, such as India and Indonesia, are expected to have a
positive impact on the product demand. Intumescent coatings have a high
potential on account of its properties, such as durability and aesthetic
appeal, which make them ideally suited for automotive and construction
applications. However, volatility in the prices of raw materials is expected to
restrain product demand to some extent.
Based
on technology, the market has been segmented into water-, solvent-, and
epoxy-based coatings. Water-based is expected to be the fastest-growing
technology segment from 2019 to 2025. Stringent regulations about using fire
protection in buildings are likely to boost the product demand. Regulations
prohibiting the use of VOC paints for interior applications owing to higher
toxicity and environmental impact are expected to boost the demand for
water-based products. Solvent-based coatings are also anticipated to witness
high demand in the coming years. These coatings are used in off-site
applications in areas of low heat and high humidity to achieve decorative
finish over complex shapes and for improved adhesion and high water resistance.
