The Global Market for Passive Fire Protection Coatings is Projected to Reach US$4.9 Billion by 2024
Stringent Regulations Drive the
Global Passive Fire Protection Coatings Market, According to a New Report by Global Industry Analysts,
Inc.
GIA
launches comprehensive analysis of industry segments, trends, growth drivers,
market size, and demand forecasts on the global Passive Fire Protection
Coatings market. The global market for Passive
Fire Protection Coatings is projected to reach US$4.9 billion by 2024, driven by increasing
number of fire accidents, growing awareness about fire safety and increasing
stringency in regulations.
Passive
fire protection (PFP) coatings are a type of reactive, passive fire protection
materials which when used on structural elements prevent, control and/or delay
fire from spreading. These materials are applied to provide ample time to
escape the building in case of a fire accident, preventing the fanning of
flames to adjacent buildings and spaces, enhancing the safety of rescue
personnel and delaying collapse of the core structure/foundation of the
building. Increasing urbanization, growing number of fire accidents, increasing
stringency in regulations and norms related to fire safety, and a general rise
in awareness on safety are driving demand for PFP coatings. Benefits such as much
lower maintenance post application when compared to active fire protection
solutions, and higher reliability than some of the other reactive, passive fire
protection solutions fuel adoption of PFP coatings. Construction and Oil &
gas industries remain major end-use markets for PFP materials. Growing
construction activity worldwide and increasing investments in oil & gas
exploration and production are spurring growth in PFP coatings demand
worldwide. Further, growing demand from niche end-use segments such as marine,
automotive and aerospace is expected to increase adoption going forwards.
Product innovations are also contributing to growth, fueled by exploration of
novel materials for use in various applications to boost performance.
Cementous coatings benefit from lower costs
and faster application that drive its demand in both industrial and
construction sectors. Market for intumescent coatings is driven by its use in a
wide range of industries including the oil & gas industry, skyscrapers,
offices, residential and commercial buildings, colleges, hospitals and
restaurants among others. Apart from reliability, durability and high
efficiency, intumescent coatings demand low maintenance and provide the
additional benefit of protection against corrosion. Passive fire protection
coatings serve a bevy of industries. High durability of intumescent coatings has
helped increase their appeal in the automotive market, where they offer
protection against high engine temperature forming a thermal barrier in
vehicles.
As
stated by the new market research report on Passive Fire Protection
Coatings,
Asia-Pacific represents the largest market worldwide for Passive Fire
Protection Coatings. The region also represents the fastest growing market
worldwide, with a CAGR of 9.3% through the analysis period. Rapid growth in
population alongside dramatic increase in urbanization as well as growing
commercial and industrial constructions is expected to drive demand for PFP
coatings in the region. Growing safety awareness and implementation of new
rules and policies that mandate the use of effective passive fire protection
coatings in residential and commercial buildings are also fueling growth.
Major
players in the market include AkzoNobel N.V., Carboline Company, Hempel A/S,
Jotun Group, Kansai Paint Co. Ltd., Nippon Paint Co. Ltd., No-Burn Inc., PPG
Industries Inc., Promat International NV, Svt Holding GmbH, Teknos Group, The
Sherwin-Williams Company and tremco illbruck Group GmbH among others.
