Fireproofing Materials Market Forecasts to 2030 – Global Analysis By Type (Coatings, Films, Sprays and Other Types), Coating Type (Cementitious Coatings, Intumescent coatings and Other Coating Types), End User (Commercial, Industrial, Offshore, Onshore and Residential), and By Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Fireproofing Materials Market is accounted for $1.07 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $2.34 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 11.8% during the forecast period. Making a substance or structure fire-resistant is known as fireproofing. Applying a fire-resistant substance, such as mortar, cement, or fireproof paint, will accomplish this. Concrete and steel buildings are frequently fireproofed to increase their fire resistance. Fireproofing equips materials and structures with fire resistance so that in the event of an accidental fire, the vital structures can continue to function until the fire is put out. Applying certain products to materials or structures is known as fireproofing. This reduces the rate at which a fire spreads and gives plant operators more time to put out a fire thus enhancing the market growth.

According to the European Public Real Estate Association, Germany, the United Kingdom, and France include the largest commercial real estate markets, worth approximately USD 4.8 trillion as of December 2022. Germany had an enormous share value of commercial real estate in Europe in 2022, with a total value of approximately USD 1.8 trillion, followed by the United Kingdom and France.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Rapidly increasing building and construction industry along with automotive sector

The growth rate of the market for fire proofing materials is projected to be driven by the expanding construction sector, increased renovation of existing buildings or infrastructure, and improving warehousing facilities. Additionally, significant investments in infrastructure, non-residential building, and expanding urban housing projects have increased demand for fire protection products during the course of the projected period. In electric vehicles, these materials give a protective layer to the batteries which shields or prevents them from becoming heated up or catching fire. Fire proofing materials, such as coatings, are widely utilized in automotive interiors, such as dashboards and seats. These materials are also frequently used in manufacturing facilities as foam products, where they are primarily used to stop fires from starting during production. The automotive sector has expanded significantly as a result of increased demand for light commercial and passenger vehicles and the construction of new electric vehicle facilities.

Restraint:

Adverse impact on health caused by fire proofing materials

Although fire proofing materials have a wide range of industrial applications, the adverse health effects associated with their use could be the main obstacle to the market's expansion. Gypsum and other plasters could be used improperly, exposing workers to these substances and causing major health impacts such upper respiratory and nosebleed issues, sneezing, coughing, and skin and eye irritation. Gypsum plaster's harmful health impacts may cause some industries, such construction and building, to use less of it, which would slow the growth of the fire proofing materials market throughout the projection period.

Opportunity:

Increasing fire safety regulations

The strict legislative framework and industry standards regulations, particularly in the regions of Europe and North America, have a significant impact on the market for fireproofing products. Innovative fireproofing materials are being developed as a result of these rules. They differ between regions based on the related national legislation for environmental and health security. The demand for fireproofing materials such intumescent coatings and cementitious coatings in construction materials is being driven by the strict fire laws established by regulatory agencies of various nations, including the NFPA (US), VFDB (Germany), FPA (UK), and FPAA (Australia). The need for fireproofing materials in the various end-use sectors is being driven by all of these causes taken together.

Threat:

Regulations in emerging markets are not being followed along with price sensitivity

PFP coatings are now being used in construction projects in developing nations. China, India, Brazil, and the nations of Eastern Europe and Africa are among the nations with these economies. In these nations, where active fire prevention methods are employed, the usage of fireproofing materials is new. The advantages of adopting fireproofing materials in diverse applications are not well known to many potential end users. Moreover, due to high costs, a lack of a governing authority or appropriate inspection methods, and the necessary fire safety requirements, contractors frequently ignore or fail to comply with them which hamper the market.

Covid-19 Impact

The World Health Organization (WHO) worldwide Health Regulations Emergency Committee designated the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) epidemic as a public health emergency of worldwide concern. The virus started in China and has now reached at least 214 nations and territories. Nearly all areas of society have been impacted by the global epidemic. The market for fireproofing materials has experienced negative growth as a result of disruptions in the global supply chain and changes in the cost of raw materials. Due to a decrease in demand from the building industry, this situation has developed. The commercial, industrial, and residential sectors are extremely important to the market. Due to recent events, a number of governments and private sector companies are functioning at reduced capacity or have totally stopped operations thereby hampering the market for fireproofing materials.

The intumescent coatings segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The intumescent coatings segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth; due to these coatings is to give buildings fire resistance. Epoxy-based thick film intumescent coatings often have a thicker dry layer than thin film coatings. These materials were designed to be strong and long-lasting for use in hydrocarbon fires, where the test heating regime was much more severe than that utilized in the majority of industrial and commercial applications. These are mostly utilized for the exterior steel in high-rise buildings and other structures that are exposed to the sea. The demand for intumescent coatings is anticipated to increase because to these characteristics during the forecast period.

The commercial segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The commercial segment is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR growth during the forecast period; because of fire proofing materials are advantageous for many commercial buildings for security reasons. Fire prevention features are used in commercial buildings to maintain ""compartmentation,"" making sure that a fire in one area won't spread to another. To provide the highest level of safety, passive fire prevention materials can be applied to floors, ceilings, roofs, and walls. Additionally, a number of prominent companies increased their stakes in the commercial construction industry. Around the world, a number of other commercial real estate construction projects are in progress, which will raise market demand for fire prevention supplies for safety reasons.

Region with largest share:

North America is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to the fireproofing products; North America has always been a significant market. North America has been a leader in demand, product innovation, quality, and application development on a global scale. Due to the rising need for cutting-edge materials in the construction industry, the market for fireproofing materials is expanding significantly. A number of associations have a significant role in the regulation and commercialization of fireproofing materials on the heavily regulated North American market.

Region with highest CAGR:

Asia Pacific is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to major emerging nations like China and India make up the APAC region. Because of this, the majority of the industries in these developing nations have a lot of room for growth. The market for fireproofing materials is expanding rapidly, providing businesses with several chances for expansion. It is anticipated that the region will become a prime location for the expansion of fireproofing materials due to the region's growing population and the development of new technologies and products. Improved lifestyles and rising incomes also contribute to the market's success in the region's growing nations.
