The size of the coatings pre-treatment industry is predicted to grow from $ 2.38 billion in 2020 to $ 3.47 billion by 2025, with a compound annual growth rate of 5.62%. The coating Pre-treatment industry is experiencing strong expansion due to escalated applications, escalating call for powder coatings, and escalating call in developing countries. Coating Pre-treatment is widely employed in automotive and transportation applications. The rapid expansion of the coatings Pre-treatment industry is driven by growing call from its end-use businesses. Pre-treatment coatings are a crucial precursor step for powder coatings and provide an excellent appearance as well as improved service life of the metal surface. The worldwide coatings pre-treatment industry is experiencing tremendous expansion due to its wide applications in various end-user businesses.
Coating Pre-treatment is the process of cleaning, rinsing, and drying metal surfaces before applying powder coatings. This pre-treatment provides durability by preventing metal from deteriorating and rusting. The three main steps carried out during the Pre-treatment process, removal of oil, grease and dirt, removal of the outer oxide layer and formation of the Pre-treatment layers. The worldwide Pre-treatment coatings industry derives much of its expansion from the significant increase in car sales. Since pre-treatment coatings are an essential pioneering step for powder coatings, providing superior finish and longer service life of the coating on the metal surface, its use on metals such as steel, copper, aluminum, zinc alloys and accelerated galvanized steel.
Market Trends:
Automotive and transportation is the largest application of coatings pre-treatment. The construction industry is driven by escalating urbanization in Asia Pacific and the Middle East and Africa, which has resulted in escalated call for residential, commercial and industrial infrastructure. Low interest rates on mortgage loans are also responsible for the escalated call for new homes, which ultimately leads to the application of pre-treatment of the coating on buildings and constructions. With escalating spending in the construction and construction industry, the use of pre-treatment of coatings in the construction segment is predicted to increase during the foreseen period.
