The UV-B radiations of sunlight adversely affects the mechanical properties of materials, such as plastics and wood; thereby, limiting their shelf life. UV light stabilizers are used to coat such materials to reduce the degradative effects caused by UV radiations. There are three types of stabilizers in the market, which include Hindered Amine Light Stabilizers (HALS), UV absorbers and Quenchers. HALS occupies a dominant market share owing to its usability in many applications and long shelf life as compared to other UV stabilizers. UV stabilizers are commonly seen in coating applications such as flooring, decking, furniture and automobiles. Flooring and decking applications significantly contribute in the revenue generation of the overall UV light stabilizer market.

The booming construction industry leads to rising demand for construction materials. The exposure of roofing tiles & shakes, solar shingles, shutters and roofing membrane to UV light causes cracking, crazing, chalking, color changes and loss of strength in them. Hence, these components require effective UV and heat stabilization loading to resist the above mentioned harmful UV effects. The Asia-Pacific region accounted for more than 50% of the market share owing to the large industrial base of construction, automotive and packaging industry.  

Several companies operating in UV light stabilizer market have adopted various strategies such as product launches, agreements and partnerships to gain a prominent foothold in the respective market. The market would be influenced by the increasing awareness of the harmful effects of UV radiation. Many companies prefer using a combination of UV absorbers and HALS for protection against UV radiations.
