The global pearlescent pigment market is expected to reach USD 547.8 million by 2022, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Growing demand for high performance, high brilliance paints on account of expanding automotive & construction industries in emerging markets is expected to remain a key driving factor for the global market.
Shift in trend towards reducing VOC emissions and growing awareness regarding sustainability is also expected to act as a vital determinant for market growth. Developed markets are anticipated to face obstacles in the form of stringent regulatory norms, hampering market growth over the forecast period.
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) coated mica pigment was the leading product segment with demand share exceeding 35% in 2014. High consumption rates of these pigments across automotive, construction and printing ink industries is expected to drive this segment over the forecast period. It is also expected to witness the highest growth of 5.1% from 2015 to 2022.
Iron/ferric oxide mica pigment is also expected to witness brisk growth owing to its high refractive index, metallic luster, excellent hiding properties and weather resistance. Increasing application in the cosmetics and printing inks sector is a major driving force for the product.
