Executive Summary
Wood has been used for many centuries in household and commercial applications. Woods are used to enhance the aesthetic beauty of buildings, ships and vehicles. Wood’s durability is the key factor for its wide range of applications. There are two types of woods: hardwood and softwood. Beech, oak and mahogany are examples of hardwoods,whereas redwood, firand pine are examples of softwoods. Hardwoods are used to manufacture furniture, and softwoods are used to manufacture stud partitions, external fences, doors, and roof trusses. Both hardwoods and softwoods can be used for wooden flooring. Hardwoods are more expensive than softwoods. Both wood types have differentiated features and beauty. Wood grains also differ by wood type. Every wooden structure is coated with transparent or stain coatings to enhance the color and grains of the timber. Coatings are therefore essential and are used according to the applications of those structures by their manufacturers. The coating also enhances a product’s life. Ultraviolet (UV)-retardant and moisture-resistant coatings are the most demanding features of wood coating solutions.Varnishes, shellacs, preservatives, dyes, repellents, and lacquers are the most common types of products used for coating wooden surfaces. Distinguishing features and durability drive the demand for such products. Coatings are applied with the help of a wide range of tools and equipment, the demand for which is expected to increase further with the increase in demand for wood coats and wood items. Various coating techniques, such as conventional spray, high-volume low-pressure (HVLP) spray, airless spray, and electrostatic spray, are the prevailing spraying solutions used by wood product manufacturers. The demand for wood surface coating techniques (e.g., rollers, brush, vacuum, curtain) is further expected to rise with the increase in demand for wood products. Differentiated coating techniques are applied based on the size, shape and complexity of the product surface. The types of coating products to be applied depend on the exposure of the surface. Interior or exterior applications of wood products determine the types of the coating to be applied.
The demand for wood coating solutions is directly related to the demand for wood products, as those coating solutions have been developed for application solely on wooden surfaces. The rise in demand for household and commercial buildings is expected to create a demand for wood products, including for furniture, cabinets, flooring, and decking, which in turn is expected to drive the global wood coating technology market during the forecast period. The demand for passenger and cruise ships is further expected to rise due to the increasing amount of disposable income among the global population, which is expected to drive tourists to pursue a wide variety of traveling experiences. In 2022, there are many new cruise ships scheduled to set sail. Many of these have amore modern interior and décor, moving away from the conventional appearance of older cruise ships to a more fashionable design. The goal of such a design is to attract a younger population. This evolution is necessary for making cruise businesses more resilient in the future by drawing the next generation of cruise tourists. According to a recent survey, 37% of Generation Z and millennials plan to travel internationally this year. In comparison, only 22% of those aged 35 and above expressed the same view, indicating that the younger generation may be more likely to travel. In addition, cruising is also becoming increasingly popular among younger adults. The number of Gen Z and millennial respondents that generally take a cruise holiday climbed from17% to 21% worldwide, showing shifts in consumer choices.
