Industry is often influenced by the economic and technological development of the region, as well as global developments in materials science, awareness of the environment, and regulatory requirements.
Prime determinants of growth
America’s paints and coatings market is experiencing growth due to several factors, including escalating demand for paints and coatings from the architecture sector, robust demand from the automotive sector and rapid growth of the industrial sector. However, the health hazards associated with the use of VOC-containing paints hampered the market growth to some extent. On the contrary, the emergence of environmentally friendly paints offers prolific opportunities for market growth.
COVID-19 Scenario
- The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the paints and coatings market in the Americas, as it did on many industries worldwide. The pandemic disrupted supply chains globally, affecting the availability of raw materials, chemicals, and packaging materials used in the production of paints and coatings. This led to supply shortages and price volatility.
- Moreover, lockdowns and social distancing measures resulted in delayed or halted construction projects across the Americas. The construction industry is a major consumer of architectural coatings and the slowdown in construction had a direct impact on demand. Furthermore, the architectural sector, a key consumer of coatings, experienced a significant slowdown in construction of buildings which in turn had a negative impact on sales of paints and coatings in the America region during the pandemic.
- However, the pandemic has recovered, which has led to a rise in demand for coatings used in both OEM and refinish applications. Additionally, the trend of home improvement and DIY projects is gaining traction.
