The global anti-corrosion coatings market was surpassed at USD 28.56 billion in 2021 and is expected to hit around USD 39.87 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 3.78% from 2022 to 2030.
Report Highlights
Rising demand for anti-corrosion coatings in industries, such as oil & gas, building & construction, and marine, is expected to drive the market over the forecast period. The primary purpose of the anti-corrosion coating is to protect the metal substrates from environmental exposures, such as humidity, moisture, and oxidation.
These coatings act as a barrier to prevent the interaction between the corrosive materials, compounds, chemicals from the metal surfaces. In addition, these coatings enhance the surface finish of the metallic components. The rising demand for sustainable and durable metallic products, especially in the oil & gas and building & construction industries, is expected to drive the product demand over the forecast period. The Asia Pacific is anticipated to be the largest regional market over the forecast period.
This is owing to various factors, such as government initiatives like Make in India, construction of a silk route project connecting Xian, China to Trieste, Italy through both road and marine transportation. In addition, various companies in clean energy production and aerospace are planning to establish manufacturing facilities in India post COVID-19 pandemic, which will support market growth. With the rising number of building & construction projects in North America, particularly in the U.S., demand for electric automotive, and R&D investments for developing advanced, environmentally-friendly anti-corrosion coatings will boost the market growth in North America.

Technology Insights
The solvent-based technology segment led the market and accounted for more than 46.4% share of the global revenue in 2021. This high share is attributable to the rising demand for industrial tanks, manufacturing machines, pipes, ballast tanks, chemical storage tanks, gas ducts, cooling towers, smokestacks, etc. In addition, solvent-based corrosion protection coating requires less drying time, exhibits improved temperature, humidity, and abrasion resistance.
With the rising stringent environmental regulation, water-based coatings are gaining demand and are often used in household appliances as it reduces VOC emissions. The water-based coating offers properties, such as excellent chemical resistance, cold-resistant, non-flammable and non-explosive, and non-toxic in nature. Water-based coatings are commonly used in metal components, machinery equipment, axles, transmission shafts, gearboxes, and others.
Powder coatings are commonly used with materials including epoxy, polyester, polyurethane, and acrylic. Powder anti-corrosion coatings have a negligible amount of VOC emissions and low flammability at the time of application. In addition, powder coatings offer properties, such as enhanced surface finish, uniform thickness, and have low operating cost compared to other technology.
Material Insights
The acrylic material segment led the market and accounted for more than 43.8% share of the global revenue in 2021. This high share is attributable to the excellent properties of acrylic materials, such as resistance to weathering and oxidation. Acrylic coatings are primarily water-based, which offer ease of handling and superior performance in a wide range of applications, such as wall coating, roof coating, and low price compared to other materials.
Epoxy material is commonly used in the powder form for corrosion protection applications. These are often used in piping systems in both commercial and residential purposes. In addition, corrosion protection coatings are used in mining, architectural, municipal, and medical, IT industries, and food & beverage industries.
Zinc coatings are comprised of zinc metal pigment ranging from 85 to 92%. Zinc corrosion protection coating provides cathodic protection and thickness ranging from 6 to 125 microns. Zinc-based corrosion protection coatings are used in building & construction and marine applications for pipelines, bridges, containers, and other metallic products.
Application Insights
The oil & gas application segment led the market and accounted for more than 37.12% share of the global revenue in 2021. This high share is attributable to the extensive usage of corrosion protection coating in this sector. In addition, the anti-corrosion coating minimizes the risk of microbes and improves abrasion resistance & surface finish. The Anti-corrosion coating also finds applications in hospitals, care homes, and drop-in centers for the product including floors, handles, beds, walls, and ceiling paints.
Corrosion protection coating is used in flooring, shelving, kitchen mats, storage containers, water coolers, and water hydration systems in the food & beverage industry. The growth of the food & beverage industry on account of the increasing population and changing lifestyles is expected to drive the product demand in this application segment over the forecast period.
The aerospace & defense application segment accounted for more than a 9.7% share of the global revenue in 2021. Rising defense expenditure as security threats among the countries has intensified post the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic is driving the demand. In addition, the growth of the commercial aviation industry has plunged downwards owing to travel restriction to tackle the COVID-19 pandemic. These factors are boosting the product demand in the aerospace & defense application segment.
Amid the global COVID-19 pandemic, the marine industry had a negative impact as the demand for goods from China has reduced. According to the reports published by Vessels Value Ltd., the demand for goods from Japan and South Korea is increasing and the demand for goods from China is still witnessing a downfall. This trend is expected to continue as various companies operating in the electrical & electronics, building & construction, and aerospace & defense sectors are exploring new geographies for establishing there manufacturing facilities outside China. This, in turn, is expected to drive the product demand over the forecast period.
Regional Insights
The Asia Pacific led the market and accounted for over 37.5% share of global revenue in 2021. This high share is attributable to the rising demand for Electric Vehicles (EVs) in countries, such as China, India, and Japan. In addition, the presence of various automotive manufacturers, which are involved in research & development activities in the region including Tata Motors, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd, and Bajaj Auto Ltd., will propel industry expansion over the forecast period.
The growth of the construction industry in emerging economies, such as Brazil, China, India, and Mexico, are expected to drive the product demand in the protection of components, such as insulation, fixtures, structural lumber, windows, fences, and others, over the forecast period. The demand for anti-corrosion coatings in the building & construction market can be attributed to increased foreign investment in the construction industry of these countries as a result of the rising number of redevelopment projects of public and industrial infrastructure.
Europe ranks second, in terms of revenue. The regional market is driven by the growth of the major application sectors, such as oil & gas and marine applications. According to Eni S.p.A., the European oil & gas industry has registered a decline of approximately 40% in the profit of first-quarter 2020 compared to 2021.
In addition, the automotive & rail application segment is expected to witness considerable growth owing to increasing demand for smart EVs in the region, which requires lightweight and durable components to improve the vehicular efficiency.
