WEB COATING – MARKET INSIGHTS AND KEY PLAYERS
Global coating market size
- The global industrial coatings market is projected to grow from $137.1 billion in 2021 to $183.2 billion in 2028 at a CAGR of 4.2% in the forecast period, 2021–2028.
- Industrial coatings are used for different applications to ensure resistance to anti-corrosion, surge durability, prevent wear & tear, and increase operational efficiency.
- The growing demand for environmentally friendly coatings, as well as the need for efficient processes and durable coatings with better aesthetics, are the major factor driving the industrial coatings market growth. Source
Challenges in coating industries
- Regulations that will affect coatings suppliers and manufacturers: Chemicals like Nonylphenol ethoxylate (NPE), 2-amino-1-naphthalenol (APE), N-Methylpyrrolidone (NMP) and heavy metals like cobalt have already been banned in different parts of the world. Markets will push coating companies to reformulate to more sustainable or green chemistries.
- Cost reduction of technologies using sustainable route.
- Environmental conditions play a crucial role such as humidity, extreme weathering conditions, humidity on coating process.
- Maintenance of supply chain during situations like pandemic. Source
Growth and opportunity to expand market
- Asia Pacific industrial coating market has shown exponential growth in past and same continues in future.
- The Middle East and Africa's markets are expected to expand due to the region's growing demand for white goods, fueled by lower interest rates on buying.
- As coating producers raise awareness about the advantages of employing the proper coating materials for various application sectors such as automotive, marine, packaging, and others, it is also expected to generate many prospects for products such as oil coatings, which will drive the market's growth.

Key Term |
Definition |
|
1 |
Substrate |
Substrate is thin or flexible film on which coating material is applied to perform process of web coating. E.g. plastic film, metal foil, flexible glass, paper, etc. |
|
2 |
Coating material |
The material applied on the substrate, which provides desired property to substrate to produce web coated product. |
|
3 |
Web coating/ Roll-to-roll coating |
The coating process consists of applying a coating material to a moving web of flexible substrate. Roll-to-roll processing is a fabrication method used in manufacturing embeds, coats, prints or laminates with varying applications onto a flexible rolled substrate material as that material is fed continuously from one roller on to another. |
|
5 |
Film |
A thin film is a web coated product which can be applied on surfaces like solar panels, decorative panels. |
|
6 |
Sheet |
A sheet is a web coated product (generally thick in nature) used for purposes like packaging, pouches, etc. |
|
7 |
Tape |
Tape is a substrate with adheshive on one or multiple sides, thus it can be adhered on surface of final place area, e.g. vehicle. |
