Indonesia decorative paints market is expected to fare well during the forecast period owing to impressive growth in the construction industry, a result of the development of residential and commercial buildings as well as infrastructure. For instance, in 2022 Indonesia will speed up the infrastructure construction of its future capital city (IKN) Nusantara to attract more investors, which is expected to propel the demand for decorative paints. Additionally, the Indonesian government announced a USD 350 billion infrastructure plan that promised to remove existing bottlenecks and improve access to infrastructure outside of the main island of Java along with even more ambitious plan for 2020 to 2024. More than USD 400 billion will be spent across hundreds of projects. The plans include developing the groundwork for a new capital city.

Decorative painting is a type of paint used to transform the appearance of a surface, whatever its size, or object. The objective is to improve the aesthetics of the current substrate and, in some situations, to strengthen and prolong the durability of the coating that is coated with it. The most common application for decorative paints is coating, both, inside of buildings such as homes and offices and outside. Moreover, the latter application is less frequent because not all paints are appropriate for outside applications because they lack resistance to sunshine, water, and other environmental factors.

Indonesia Decorative Paints Market: Drivers

Decorative paint sales make up the majority of the market of the Indonesian paint sector and consumption has been rising steadily in line with the growth of residential and commercial property as well as infrastructure projects. Upgrades of existing infrastructure being undertaken by the Indonesian government and large-scale residential developments in Indonesia’s capital and secondary cities are also driving decorative paint sales and placing Indonesia as one of the fastest growing paint markets in Asia Pacific.

Moreover, the Indonesian property sector is the major growth driver of Indonesia’s decorative paints industry. The high demand for new housing and the cultural tradition of repainting one’s house in the lead up to public holidays, such as Eid and Christmas, assures the steady demand for decorative paints going forward all across Indonesia.

Rising Construction Sector- The Indonesia decorative paints market is supported by the government’s investments in the construction and rehabilitation of infrastructure in preparation for the 2023 ASEAN Summit in Indonesia. It will also be supported by investments in transport, electricity, housing, manufacturing, and tourism projects. Furthermore, reconstruction and renovation activities in the construction sector are also driving the Indonesia decorative paints market.

Increasing Emphasis on Green Manufacturing- The development of the decorative paint industry in Indonesia is currently quite rapid which has a good impact on the Indonesian economy. On the other hand, the decorative paint industry is also required to produce paint products that are increasingly environment friendly to reduce the adverse effects on the environment along the supply chain. Additionally, growing demand from direct customers and consumers for more sustainable coatings, producers of resins, additives, pigments, and final paint formulations are not only looking to develop greener products, but they are also focused on the design of greener manufacturing processes. In addition to benefiting the environment, the implementation of greener processes often leads to increased efficiency, lower costs, and value creation. From installing newer boiler systems to developing gas-phase reactions to consuming unwanted by-products, the companies are reducing their environmental footprints and at the same time increasing their competitiveness in the marketplace.

Increasing Demand from the Architectural Industry- The purpose of architectural decorative paints is to protect and embellish surface characteristics. They are applied to coat houses and buildings. Most are intended for particular purposes, such as deck finishes, wall paints, or roof coatings. Each architectural ornamental paint must serve a specific number of decorative, long-lasting, and protective purposes, regardless of its intended usage. Commercial applications for architectural decorative paints include office buildings, warehouses, retail convenience stores, shopping centres, and residential structures. These ornamental paints, which may include contain sealers or speciality items, can be used on both interior and exterior surfaces. The majority of homeowners prefer the color of their choice for the walls in the living room and bedroom. As a result, acrylic paints are preferred since they provide a wide range of color and tone options. Most ceilings are painted flat white so that they reflect the most ambient light in the room. This makes the room feel more spacious and relaxed. Basement masonry walls can often weep water. Hence, the increasing demand from the architecture industry is expected to spur the Indonesia decorative paints market.

SAICM (Strategic Approach to International Chemicals Management) / GEF (Global Environment Facility) Project:

In the year 2020, Indonesia launched a project that will help small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) remove lead in paint production processes and support the establishment of lead paint regulations. The project is expected to result in a National Indonesian Standard for paint products and a ban on using pigments that use heavy metals to protect domestic consumers. Moreover, under the project, the International Pollutants Elimination Network (IPEN), will work with Indonesia to establish a standard of no more than 90 ppm of lead in all types of paints, including decorative, architectural, and industrial paints.

Indonesia Decorative Paints Market: Challenges

Lack of standard- One of the major weaknesses of Indonesia decorative paints market is the lack of standards that regulate the decorative paint quality. Many domestic decorative paint manufacturers have not complied with the international standards that have been set. Some are even intentionally lowering their quality and using cheap and dangerous raw materials in order to offer cheaper prices to the market. The industry expects the government to issue a National Indonesian Standard (SNI) for paint products and ban the use of pigments that use heavy metals such as chrome and tin to protect domestic consumers. The introduction of SNI will enable domestic manufacturers to export their products and compete with foreign products in the domestic and international markets.

Non-Availability and High Cost of Raw Materials- The fluctuating raw material costs are expected to restrain market growth, as they severely affect margins in this price-sensitive market. Titanium dioxide is a key raw material used for coatings. An increase in its price, due to supply shortages, is a major concern for decorative coatings companies. Profit margins will remain under constant pressure if price hikes continue. Suppliers will also be under constant pressure to develop coatings with an optimum price to affordability ratio.

Trends & Innovations in Decorative Paint Technology:

Improved Indoor Air Quality and Odor-Elimination- Improving indoor air quality is a major consideration amongst building professionals and building occupants, most notably in the education and healthcare sector. There are many pollutants in the air including volatile organic compounds (VOC) and formaldehyde which are naturally emitted from paint, varnishes, furniture, carpets, cleaning products, and other building materials. As a result, Indonesian government is increasing encouragement to achieve healthy indoor environments through building and equipment specification to internal finishes, paving way for low-VOC paint. This is a form of paint that contains fewer VOC or VOC solvents than traditional coatings.

Enhanced Resistance to Mold and Mildew on the Surface- Moisture and humidity create a breeding ground for mold and mildew to thrive, commonly seen in bathrooms, wet rooms, and kitchens. In response, consumers are demanding more durable products with high performance against mold and bacterial growth. This is where mold-resistant paint comes in. Designed with antimicrobial technology, the paint inhibits the growth of mold and mildew on painted surfaces. The built-in formulation works 24/7 for the expected lifetime of the product, helping the surface paint to stay hygienically cleaner, fresher, and more durable.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Indonesia Decorative Paints Market:

The COVID-19 pandemic had drastically altered the status of the chemical industry and hindered the growth of the Indonesia decorative paints market. The crisis has distorted operational efficiency and disrupted the value chain due to the sudden closure of national boundaries, creating loss and damage. In addition, decorative paints are majorly used in construction applications, thus halt in such activities due to the pandemic has declined the demand for decorative paints in Indonesia.
