Radiation Curable Coatings Market Report by Ingredient (Oligomers, Monomers, Photoinitiators, Additives), Type (Ultraviolet Curing, Electron Beam Curing), Application (Paper and Film, Printing Inks, Plastics, Wood, Glass, and Others), and Region 2024-2032


The global radiation curable coatings market size reached US$ 8.1 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 11.9 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.3% during 2024-2032.

Radiation curable coatings comprise reactive liquid, pigments, and additives that are cured using high-intensity radiation energy from visible light, ultraviolet (UV) energy, or low energy electrons (EB). These coatings have a long service life and high performance, require low energy costs, improve surface properties, and protect against corrosion. They also offer low levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and enhance resistance against scratch, impact, abrasion, chemical, and mechanical. Consequently, they find applications in various end use industries to improve the durability, function, and aesthetic appeal of components and products made using glass, plastic, metal, and wood.

Radiation Curable Coatings Market Trends:

The extensive usage of radiation curable coatings in various industry verticals represents one of the key factors bolstering the market growth. For instance, they are employed in the automotive industry to manufacture scratch-resistant keyboards, key panels, gear levers, and other vehicle components. This, in confluence with the escalating demand for advanced infotainment systems in cars, is stimulating the market growth. Moreover, the emerging trend of automated products for household activities is driving the adoption of radiation curable coatings in making domestic electronic appliances, such as microwaves, ovens, dishwashers, and refrigerators. They also find usage in the printing and packaging of plastic bottles, eyeglass lenses, yogurt pots, polystyrene cups, advertising materials, and cellphone and television (TV) set casings. Apart from this, they find extensive application in the manufacturing of fiber optic cables that are widely used in internet cables to transmit large amounts of data at high speed. Furthermore, due to their easy installation and bond strength properties, the demand for radiation curable coatings is anticipated to expand in wood furniture and tubing steel pipes for oil drilling.
