The marine coatings market is projected to grow from USD 3.31 billion in 2017 to USD 3.93 billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 3.50% during the forecast period from 2017 to 2022. The increase in the overall international trade has resulted in the increased use of sea routes for carrying out trade activities across the globe. This has led to rise in the number of bulk carriers, container ships, and general cargo ships being manufactured across the globe, thereby widening the scope of the marine coatings market. In addition, the increasing demand for marine coatings from emerging economies such as China and South Korea is expected to fuel the growth of the marine coatings market across the globe.

The marine coatings market has been segmented based on resin, product type, application, and region. Among resins, the epoxy segment is expected to lead the marine coatings market during the forecast period, in terms of value. The growth of this segment of the market can be attributed to the outstanding chemical and water resistance offered by epoxy marine coatings. Moreover, these coatings are also extremely durable and have excellent adhesion to a variety of substrates.

Based on product type, the marine coatings market has been segmented into anti-corrosion coatings, antifouling coatings, and others.
