The UK market is exhibiting a CAGR of 4.5% during (2024 - 2031). Additionally, The France market would experience a CAGR of 6.2% during (2024 - 2031).
In the automotive industry, corrosion-resistant resins are essential for producing lightweight and durable parts that can withstand exposure to road salts, chemicals, and moisture. These resins manufacture body panels, fuel tanks, and other external components. The increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs), which require advanced materials for batteries and chassis, has further amplified the demand for corrosion-resistant resins. Moreover, the automotive industry’s focus on reducing vehicle weight for better fuel efficiency has contributed to the growing use of composite materials, which include corrosion-resistant resins.
The marine industry relies heavily on corrosion-resistant materials due to its continuous exposure to highly corrosive seawater. Corrosion-resistant resins, particularly vinyl ester and epoxy resins, are widely used to manufacture boat hulls, pipelines, and other marine structures. These resins offer superior resistance to saltwater corrosion, ensuring that vessels and marine equipment maintain their strength and durability over time. The rising demand for recreational boating and the expansion of the shipping and logistics industries contribute to the growth of corrosion-resistant resins in this sector.
As the EU’s industrial production grows, the need for corrosion-resistant resins will intensify. This is due to the increased requirement for materials that can handle corrosive environments, such as exposure to chemicals, moisture, and extreme weather conditions, which are prevalent in many industrial processes. Furthermore, the EU’s strong focus on sustainable and high-performance materials aligns with the growing demand for corrosion-resistant resins, which provide durability and contribute to the overall sustainability and cost-effectiveness of industrial operations by reducing maintenance costs and extending the lifespan of equipment. Therefore, the rising industrial production in the European Union is directly supporting the growth of the market.
