Green paint: Transition to environmentally friendly products paints a pretty revenue picture

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.

The Paint and Coatings Manufacturing Industry is a crucial part of Australia's larger chemical manufacturing sector. It consists of significant market players with robust domestic and international brand reputations. Given their global footprints and vertical integration, these brands compete across the entire supply chain rather than solely in manufacturing. Global mergers and acquisitions have significantly impacted the Australian market. For instance, DuluxGroup Limited now operates under Nippon Paint Holdings Co, Ltd, a Japanese company. Danish company Hempel A/S has also bought out Wattyl, an Australian paint business.

Industry firms primarily mix pigments, solvents and binders into paints and coatings. Operators also manufacture allied paint products such as putties, caulking compounds, varnish removers and rubbing compounds. Companies that manufacture inks and toners are also included in the industry.
