Report Code: CH 2732 Jan, 2018, by marketsandmarkets.com

[142 Pages Report] The marine coatings market is projected to grow from USD 3.19 billion in 2016 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.

Marine coating Market Dynamics

Drivers: Increasing shipbuilding activities in APAC

Shipping is considered to be the cheapest transport. Hence, about 90% of goods traded across geographies is carried out by sea. The APAC marine coatings market is expected to witness steady growth, owing to the rapid development of the shipbuilding and offshore engineering industries in the region. Since ships are subject to harsh environments, there is a constant need for their maintenance and repair. All these factors act as drivers for the market.

Opportunities: Increasing demand from the oil & gas industry

The oil & gas industry is steadily growing as it is continuously redefining the production possibilities. Technological innovation has made it possible to extract fossil fuels that were not accessible just a decade or two ago. Oil & gas companies are moving to deep water and ultra-deep water for finding new oil & gas reserves. The Gulf countries, however, have the largest crude oil reserves. There are opportunities for rising import and export of crude oil, LNG, and chemicals between countries involving the usage of large ships and vessels, such as crude, LNG, LPG, and chemical, and other carriers. This growth will automatically lead to an increase in the demand for marine coatings in the construction of large ships and vessels during the forecast period.

Challenges : Fluctuating raw material prices

Fluctuating raw material costs are a major challenge for the marine coatings market. The raw materials used for manufacturing marine coatings are petrochemicals obtained from the processing of crude oil. Hence, the current slump in oil prices has a direct impact on the coatings market. The dip in prices will benefit coating producers in the long-term though low prices can trouble manufacturers in the short-term as past inventory costs will affect production. The overall marine coatings market is estimated to register a good growth on account of increasing demand from developing regions such as APAC and the Middle East & Africa.

Epoxy-based marine coatings segment to dominate the market in 2016

The epoxy-based marine coatings market accounted for the largest share in terms of value, in 2016. This is mainly due to the properties such as good corrosion resistance and abrasion resistance. In addition, epoxy-based marine coatings are used in multi-component coatings with other types.

Cargo ships to hold largest share on application of the marine coating market in 2016

Cargo ships have not only led to increased exports but have also resulted in a reduced cost of goods. According to Herald Publications, countries such as China have 47% of their goods and passenger traffic on the water. Korea and Japan have 43% and 44%, respectively, of their goods and passenger traffic on the water. In the European countries, 40% of goods and passenger traffic is on water. The cost of transportation through water is substantially lesser than what it is through other modes. These factors are expected to increase the demand for cargo ships and, thus, the demand for marine coatings.

Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing region during the forecast period.

According to United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP), in 2016, Asia led the global maritime trade, with 37.5% of world imports and 40% of world exports. It is considered to be a lucrative region for maritime trade. The countries such as China, Japan, South Korea, India, Vietnam, and Indonesia are considered as the major ship manufacturing hubs. Over the past few years, this region has witnessed rapid economic development as well as the growth of the manufacturing and energy sectors, thereby resulting in an increase in the maritime trade.

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. The antifouling coatings segment of the market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2017 and 2022, in terms of value. The growth of the antifouling coatings segment of the marine coatings market can be attributed to the capability of these coatings to reduce the growth of organisms on the underwater hull of the marine vessels. These antifouling coatings also help in reducing the fuel consumption by marine vessels, which subsequently results in reducing harmful emissions.

Based on application, the marine coatings market has been classified into cargo ships, passenger ships, boats, and others. The passenger ships segment of the marine coatings market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2017 and 2022, in terms of value. The growing coastal and maritime tourism across the globe is contributing significantly to the growth of the shipping industry in the North American and European regions.

The marine coatings market has been studied in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and the Middle East & Africa. The Asia Pacific region is the largest market for marine coatings and is expected to continue leading the market till 2022. The growth of the Asia Pacific marine coatings market can be attributed to the recognition of countries such as China, Japan, South Korea, India, Vietnam, and Indonesia as ship manufacturing hubs.

Marine Coatings Market

The requirement of making significant investments in R&D activities for developing new marine coatings due to the ongoing developments and modifications in technologies employed for manufacturing marine coatings make the entry of new players in the market difficult. Fluctuating prices of raw materials adversely impact the overall cost of production incurred by the manufacturers of marine coatings. Increasing environmental regulations also pose a challenge for the growth of the marine coatings market across the globe.

New product launches and expansions have been the major developmental strategies adopted by the key players operating in the marine coatings market between 2013 and 2017. Companies such as PPG Industries (US), AkzoNobel (Netherlands), Hempel (Denmark), Sherwin-Williams (US), Jotun (Norway), have adopted these strategies to enhance their product offerings and customer base as well as gain a competitive edge over their peers in the market. These companies are also focusing on investing in R&D activities to introduce new and cost-effective materials to keep up with the changing consumer needs.
