Major trends in the forecast period include shift towards waterborne coatings, advancements in nanotechnology, adoption of smart coatings, demand for UV-curable coatings, shift towards powder coatings, development of anti-corrosion coating technologies.

The expanding oil and gas industry is anticipated to drive the growth of the corrosion protection coatings market. Economic growth plays a key role in increasing the demand for oil and gas products. This heightened demand for oil and gas subsequently boosts the need for corrosion protection coatings, which safeguard steel structures in the oil, gas, and petrochemical industries from corrosion. For example, in March 2023, the US Energy Information Administration, a federal agency responsible for collecting and analyzing energy data, reported an increase in U.S. crude oil production to 12.4 million barrels per day (b/d) in 2023, up from a record high of 11.7 million b/d in 2022. Additionally, in September 2022, U.S. natural gas consumption reached an average of 86.6 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d), marking the highest annual usage of natural gas compared to the previous year. Thus, the rising demand for oil and gas will fuel the growth of the corrosion protection coatings market.

The growth of the industrial sector is expected to drive the expansion of the corrosion protection coatings market in the future. The industrial sector encompasses economic activities focused on the production of goods and services through the transformation of raw materials and resources. This sector, which fuels infrastructure projects such as building construction, bridge development, and transportation system expansion, greatly increases the need for corrosion protection coatings to ensure the durability and strength of the developed assets. For example, in July 2023, a report from Statistics Canada, a government agency, revealed that about 19.5% of businesses in the manufacturing sector planned to expand their current locations within the next 12 months, more than double the percentage seen in the arts, entertainment, and recreation sector (8.2%) and nearly triple the overall business average (6.7%). Around 9% of manufacturing businesses intended to expand to other locations within the same province, a figure similar to those in administrative, support, waste management, and remediation services (9.1%). Furthermore, over 5.5% of manufacturing businesses aimed to expand internationally, aligning with similar aspirations from 5.3% of arts, entertainment, and recreation businesses, and 4.5% in wholesale trade. As a result, the expanding industrial sector is contributing to the growth of the corrosion protection coatings market.

Technological innovations stand out as a prominent trend in the corrosion protection coating market, with companies like Hempel introducing fast-drying coatings that enhance productivity and corrosion protection. For instance, in June 2022, Hempaprime CUI 275, a fast-drying, alkylamine-cured epoxy paint, has proven effective in energy generation, oil and gas facilities, offering short overcoating intervals and broad temperature resistance.

Moreover, major players in the corrosion protection coatings market are focusing on product innovation, exemplified by the introduction of corrosion control powder coatings. This method involves applying a dry powder onto metal surfaces to prevent corrosion and enhance durability. For instance, in June 2023, Akzo Nobel N.V., a Netherlands-based company, launched Interpon Redox, a high-performance powder coating designed for corrosion control. The portfolio includes systems tailored to address diverse substrates, surfaces, and environmental conditions, showcasing a commitment to meeting the needs of a varied customer base.

In May 2024, Acuren Group Inc., a US-based inspection services provider, acquired Advance Coating Solutions Inc. for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition is intended to expand Acuren’s expertise in surface treatment and coating technologies, further solidifying its position as a top provider of nondestructive testing (NDT) services. Advance Coating Solutions Inc. is a Canada-based company specializing in corrosion coatings.

Corrosion protection coatings are solutions employed to prevent metal degradation caused by environmental factors such as exposure, oxidation, and moist air. These coatings add a protective layer to metal surfaces and can be made from materials like zinc or iron, applied in various forms such as a base layer, primer, or topcoat.

The main types of corrosion protection coatings include epoxy, polyurethane, zInc., alkyd, acrylic, chlorinated rubber, and others. Epoxy, for instance, is a polymer composed of carbon chains connected to elements like hydrogen, oxygen, or nitrogen. Epoxy coatings offer optimum protection against mechanical erosion and electrochemical attack. Various technologies, including water-based, solvent-based, powder-based, and others, are utilized in industries such as marine, oil and gas, petrochemical, infrastructure, power generation, water treatment, among others.
