Paint Additives Market Segment Analysis – By Formulation
The Water Based segment is projected to witness the highest CAGR of 8.3% during the forecast period in the paint additives market during the forecast period. This growth is attributed to the growing demand for environment-friendly paints and stringent environment safety norms globally. For instance, according to an Australian Bureau of Statistics report, around 77% of paint used in Australia is water-based. Water-based paints contain microscopic plastic particles of binder and fillers that are water-soluble but they become water-resistant when dry. The use of water-based paint has many advantages such as they emit fewer organic fumes compared to oil paints, water-based paints don’t need an organic-based solvent. Moreover, water-based paints are more suitable for application on furniture and wooden materials, as they allow the wood to shrink and expand without letting cracks occur. Besides, the growing demand for low VOC paints and environment-friendly paint solution drive the demand for water-based paints, which in turn propels the growth of this market.
Paint Additives Market Segment Analysis – By Additives Type
Rheology Modifier segment held the largest share of more than 25% in the paint additives market in 2020. The growing uses of Rheology Modifier in architectural, industrial, and automotive applications drive the market growth. Rheology Modifier enable formulators to change the structure or flow of materials along with it also improves the viscosity and thickness of coated surfaces. In addition, Rheology Modifier offers smooth finish and functionality to the substrate surface and has wetting properties that provides health or environmental benefits such as suitability for formulations free of VOCs, odors, APEOs, and heavy metals. Such benefits, will aid the demand of Rheology Modifier, which further drive the paint additives market.

Besides, improvements in the living standards of people and rapid urbanization also contribute to the growth of the architectural sector. This growth in the architectural segment further creates an opportunity to the growth of paint additives industries.
Paint Additives Market Segment Analysis – By Geography
Asia-Pacific dominated the paint additives market with a share of more than 45% in 2020 followed by the North America and Europe region. The increase in construction activities and growth of the automobile sector especially electric vehicles in the region drive the market growth. According to the United Nation report, in 2019, around 60% of the global population resides in Asia, this creates an opportunity and demand for residential spaces in the region. The presence of developing economies and surging government’s spending on infrastructure projects, also contribute to the growth of the market in APAC region. Besides, the Automobile sector is showing a positive sign in India in a post-COVID-19 situation. For instance, as per vehicle registration data published by (Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations) FADA in 2020, the passenger car sales in September 2020 were 1,95,665 units which registered a positive YoY growth of 9.8%. As compared to 1,78,189 units sold in September 2019, which is showing an economic recovery in the region and a positive sign for the growth of paint additives market during the forecasted period.
Paint Additives Market Drivers
Growing demand for Zero VOC Paints
Growing demand for low VOC paints globally is driving the growth of global paint additives market. Low VOCs enables cleaner air, easy cleanup, and cost-effectiveness along with more durable & long-lasting. Moreover, Strict regulation of VOC emissions and favourable government measures to promote the use of Low VOC Paint coupled with accelerative demand for manufacturing of Architecture & Decorative paint in Asia-Pacific and Europe are some key variables influencing the industry. Furthermore, increasing concerns towards environmental and health is expected to encourage the adoption of water-based paint additives. Therefore, an increase in the adoption of water-based paint systems across various end-use sectors is expected to boost the paint additives market in the forecasted period.
Growth of Paint and Coating Industry
The paint and coating industry is expected to drive market growth due to an increase in demand from the automotive, manufacturing, and construction sector. Rapid urbanization and industrialization in developing economies especially in China, India, and Brazil are boosting the demand for paint and coatings in different applications. According to American Coating Association (ACA), APAC is dominating the market with 53% of share in the global market in 2018, while China, India, Japan, and South Korea accounting for 87% of share in the region. The growth in paint and coating industry will have a positive effect on paint additives market.
Paint Additives Market Challenges
Regulations on VOCs & Price Volatility
VOCs are solvents that get released into the air as the paint dries, this causes health and environmental concerns. Exposure to VOCs such as toluene, xylene, acetone, formaldehyde, and benzene leads to short or long-term health effects. As there is growing health and environmental concern regarding the emission of VOCs, the governments around the world have put certain regulation on VOCs. For instance, The U.S. EPA regulates VOCs at Federal level in 40 CFR 59, which is the National Volatile Organic Compound Emission Standards for consumer and commercial products. Such, regulations are likely to hamper the market growth. Furthermore, the volatile raw material prices and the high cost associated with producing low VOC paints is the main challenge faced by manufacturers. Manufacturers are struggling with three criteria of stable pricing, enhanced usability, and green chemistry in low VOC layers, which is hampering the markets growth.
Emergence of the Covid-19
