South East Asia (SEA) powder coatings market was valued at $222.7 million and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.2% from 2016 to 2022 to reach $295.9 million. Powder coatings possess significant durability and superior properties such as resistance to scratching, corrosion, abrasion, and chemicals. Powder coatings overspray can be reused, leading to maximum utilization and cost cutting. They offer maximum compliance with the increasing environment regulations as there are no solvents in these coatings, leading to rise in their acceptance over liquid coatings.
Powder coatings are preferred owing to their eco-friendly nature and cost competitiveness as compared to liquid coatings, which are expensive and contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Moreover, government is taking initiatives to limit the use of solvents in coatings that contain VOCs to promote eco-friendly powder coatings in Indonesia. In addition, increase in investment in infrastructure improvement is set to drive the market. The government of Indonesia has invested $40 billion to improve infrastructure in Indonesia from 2005 to 2014, thus fueling the growth of the construction industry, which shows high adoption of powder coatings. Such initiatives are anticipated to accelerate the adoption of powder coatings in Indonesia, creating opportunities for global players. Collectively, growth of the end-user industry for powder coatings in Indonesia is expected to propel its market growth throughout the forecast period.
