The global intumescent coatings market size is expected to reach USD 1.95 billion by 2032, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “Electronic Shelf Label Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Substrate (Structural Steel & Iron, Wood, Others); By Type; By Application; By Technology; By Application Technique; By End-Use; By Region; Segment Forecast, 2024- 2032” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.

Intumescent coatings, known for their fire resistance and appealing aesthetics, experience heightened demand. The escalating concern for fire safety in both commercial and residential settings acts as a catalyst for the growth of the intumescent coatings market. Taking preventive measures against fire is crucial in such settings. The lightweight nature of these coatings further augments their demand across diverse sectors such as aerospace, building, construction, and automotive. Stringent government regulations emphasizing cost-effective fire protection measures contribute to the rising demand for intumescent coatings, ensuring the safety of human life and property in commercial and residential settings.

The surging demand for crude oil and its derivatives in the petrochemical and automotive industry prompts increased exploration in the oil & gas sector, subsequently driving the demand for intumescent coatings. Shale gas exploration activities and investments in this sector also play a role in the heightened demand for these coatings. The significant growth observed in the automobile and aerospace industries further propels the market for intumescent coatings. Developing countries aiming to enhance construction and infrastructure contribute significantly to the increasing demand for these coatings. However, the market growth may face challenges due to the tendency of fluctuating costs associated with intumescent coatings.

The intumescent coatings market encountered obstacles amid the COVID-19 pandemic, marked by a reduction in production capacities in manufacturing facilities and temporary closure stemming from safety concerns and workforce limitations. These factors negatively affected the supply chain. Nevertheless, the anticipation of the implementation of governmental and non-governmental strategies and a decline in COVID cases are expected to fortify the market in the upcoming years.

Intumescent Coatings Market Report Highlights

Epoxy-based technology emerged as the dominant force in the forecasted period. Intumescent coatings based on epoxy excel in passive fire protection by establishing an insulation barrier during fire incidents. While these coatings remain inactive at room temperature, exposure to elevated temperatures initiates the formation of a dense char layer, notably improving insulation levels in the event of a fire.

The brush/roller application technique took the lead in the market during 2023. This method is commonly utilized for intumescent coatings, particularly in smaller-scale projects or areas demanding precision. Brush application offers superior control over coating thickness and ensures uniform coverage, making it especially beneficial for intricate or irregular surfaces with limited access. In contrast, roller application proves more efficient for larger, flat surfaces, facilitating the attainment of a consistent coating thickness.

The Asia Pacific region asserted its dominance in the global market, securing the largest market share in 2023. The region anticipates a surge in demand for intumescent coatings, attributed to various factors, including a diverse range of end-users, proximity to raw material suppliers, and the rapid pace of industrialization and urbanization, notably in India and China. The abundance of raw materials, coupled with comparatively less stringent regulations on VOC emissions as compared to North America and Europe, has created substantial opportunities for the expansion of end-use sectors like automotive, construction, marine, and others in the region.

The global key market players include 3M, Akzo Nobel N.V., Albi Protective Coatings, Carboline, Contego International Inc., Hempel A/S, Isolatek International, Jotun, No-Burn Inc., Nullifire, PPG Industries, Inc., Rudolf Hensel GmbH, Sika AG, The Sherwin-Williams Company, and Tor Coatings.
