3. Hydromer, Inc (US) and Biocoat, Inc (US) are Leading Players in the Hydrophilic Coating Market

The global hydrophilic coating market size is projected to grow from USD 16.8 billion in 2022 to USD 22.5 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 6.0%. The demand for hydrophilic coating is primarily influenced by the demand trends in the automotive industry, aerospace industry, medical devices industry, marine industry, optics, and the growing economy. The companies have adopted various strategies, such as investment & expansion, merger & acquisition, new product launches, and joint ventures to increase their global presence and maintain sustained growth in the hydrophilic coating market.

Hydrophilic coatings exhibit water-loving properties. This indicates that they participate in dynamic hydrogen bonding with the surrounding water. Most hydrophilic coatings are also ionic and frequently negatively charged, which enhances water interactions even more. The hydrophilic coating market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.0% in terms of value during 2022–2027. It is primarily influenced by the demand trends in medical devices, aerospace, automotive, optics, marine, environmental regulations, health & safety norms, buyer preferences, lifestyle, and the growing economy. Oil prices have been highly volatile due to the supply and demand gap and unfavorable socio-political conditions in the Middle East. Most raw materials used to manufacture hydrophilic coatings are petroleum-based derivatives vulnerable to fluctuations in commodity prices. The fluctuating prices of these raw materials are a hindrance in deciding the current prices, affecting the buyer’s order size at a specific time.
