UV-Cured Coatings Widely Deployed in the Automotive Forward Lighting Industry
Water-borne coatings are especially popular because of their non-polluting nature and governmental regulations on VOC and use of toxic components. It is anticipated that solvent-borne coatings will steadily lose market share in the automotive refinish coatings market over the forecast period. Initially, solvent-based automotive refinish coatings were the default option, but environmental concerns have limited their acceptability amongst consumers recently. Another segment of note in the automotive refinish coatings market is UV-cured coatings. UV-cured coatings have gained prominence in the automotive forward lighting industry, where they have been used for 15 years.
Over Reliance on Developed Economies in the Automotive Refinish Coatings Market
The automotive refinish coatings market is restrained by certain factors such as collision centre consolidation, VOC legislation, and the ever-increasing popularity of electric vehicles. COVID – 19 has massively impacted the manufacturing sector, and the automotive industry is no exception. Global supply chain disruptions coupled with labour scarcities still need return to pre-pandemic levels. The developing world is heavily dependent on imports of automotive refinish coatings from the U.S, European Union, and China. Naturally, there have been significant delays and a backlog running into several months in the automotive refinish coatings market.
