The mirror coatings market is projected to grow from USD 618.4 million in 2017 to USD 892.0 million by 2022, at a CAGR of 7.60% from 2017 to 2022. The market includes mirror backing paints used in silver and aluminum mirrors. The mirror coatings market is segmented on the basis of resin type, technology, substrate, application, and region.
By resin type, the polyurethane resin-based segment of the mirror coatings market is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Polyurethane resin-based coatings are easy to clean, are highly durable, and tough. Polyurethane resin coatings are preferred in various applications worldwide, owing to these properties. Polyurethane resin-based coatings also provide properties, such as good elasticity at low temperature, abrasion resistance, solvent and water resistance, dry clean ability, and machine wash-ability.
Based on technology, the nano coatings segment of the mirror coatings market is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Increasing use of antimicrobial and self-cleaning coatings in CSP solar power application is expected to propel the demand for nano coatings based technology in the mirror coatings market. These coatings are dirt or water repellent, scratchproof, temperature-resistant, and emit low VOC emissions.
By application, the CSP solar power segment of the mirror coatings market is expected to grow at the highest rate from 2017 to 2022. The growth of this segment can be attributed to the increasing installation of CSP solar power plants to generate reliable and clean energy, worldwide.
By region, the mirror coatings market in the Asia Pacific region is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period, in terms of both value and volume. This high growth can be attributed to the increased demand for normal and decorative mirrors in building & construction activities in emerging economies, such as Taiwan, India, China, South Korea, Vietnam, and Singapore. The mirror coatings industry in China is growing rapidly, in terms of production and supplier activities, owing to cheap raw materials and labor, and low-tax in the country. In addition, the demand for mirror coatings is increasing rapidly in various end-use segments, including architectural, automotive & transportation, CSP solar power, and decorative. These factors are expected to contribute towards the growth of the mirror coatings market in Asia Pacific from 2017 to 2022.
