The automotive paint market growth is attributed to numerous factors such as increasing production of vehicles and higher usage of polyurethane paints. As per American Coating Association, in 2018, Urethane resins held approximately 21% of the global demand for resins in coatings. Usage of polyurethane resins has been growing over the past several years due to their performance properties and ability to be used in lower VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) formulations. This in turn has supported the market demand for Urethane Paint and usage of waterborne paints and primers, which reduces VOC emission and workers' exposure to dangerous air pollutants. Powder coating emits no VOC emissions and has very low toxic aspects. Operating costs for a powder line are significantly lower than for liquid lines. As a result, powder coatings are gaining popularity and in the North America region, powder coating has emerged as the fastest-growing finishing technology.
