Japan Protective Coatings Market Trends
The acrylic resins segment expected to register higher growth rate
- Acrylic resins are used as protective coatings because they are shiny, last a long time outside, don't rust, don't react with chemicals, don't dissolve in solvents, and are hard.
- The application of acrylic protective coatings is primarily found in the construction industry for high-end finishing on roofs, decks, bridges, floors, and other surfaces. Water-based acrylic coatings are in high demand owing to environmental concerns, like the negative impact of VOCs on the air quality in the environment.
- The Japanese government has recently begun construction on the Hokkaido Shinkansen (Shinkansen in the Hokkaido Area) between Shin-Aomori Station in Aomori Prefecture on the island of Honshu and Sapporo Station on the island of Hokkaido (361 kilometers).The project is expected to be completed by 2031.
- The Japanese government also started the Linear Motor Car Maglev Bullet Train Project, which is currently under development and will run between the Shinagawa Station in Tokyo and the Shin-Osaka Station in Osaka (a total distance of 285.6 kilometers).
- Furthermore, price increases in the country's epoxy and polyurethane markets have pushed acrylic coatings in the short term, wherever substitution is possible.
- During the forecast period, all of the above coatings are likely to be made out of resins for acrylic resin-based protective marketing.
