ANTICORROSIVE PIGMENT MARKET OVERVIEW

Global Anticorrosive Pigment market is estimated at USD 1.49 billion in 2025, anticipated to increase to USD 1.56 billion in 2026, and projected to reach USD 2.27 billion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 4.8% from 2025 to 2034.

Metals are prone to chemical attacks and degradation in adverse weather conditions. Most of the industry equipment's made up of metals which require proper maintenance and protection. The lack of maintenance can result in corrosion. In simple terms, corrosion can be described as the destruction of metal. Many industries suffer from the problem of rusting in their equipment and which creates a burden for replacement thus, wasting millions of bucks.  

Anticorrosive pigment offers corrosion resistance to protect the metal equipment from reacting to chemicals. Anticorrosive pigment saw a rise in demand from various industries such as marine, automotive, construction, and others. It offers durability and stronger resistance and prevents electrochemical reactions. However, it is important to choose the right anticorrosive pigment for application as per the needs of the industry.

Key Findings

COVID-19 IMPACT

Disruption in End-user Markets Impacted the Market Growth

COVID-19 had a massive impact on all the industries and sudden global lockdowns created a poor supply chain infrastructure. The businesses came to a halt as the priority shifted to improving the health crisis. The shutting down of borders created a hollow in the availability of raw materials, labor shortage and poor management. The rising geopolitical tension in the COVID-19 times also impacted the end-user industries, which disrupted the anticorrosive pigment market. However, as the normalization process starts, the market is anticipated to bounce back owing to large-scale demand.  

LATEST TRENDS

Incorporation of Environment-friendly Anticorrosive Pigments to Accelerate the Product Demand

All the industries are becoming environmental conscious and opting for eco-friendly products which ensure less environmental damage. The rise in environmental issues has compelled the government and the industries to regulate their products and progress towards sustainable living. End-user industries are favoring anticorrosive pigment products which create little impact on the environment. This led to the demand for innovation and a rise in the usage of waterborne anticorrosive coatings. Waterborne anticorrosive pigments are in trend due to their lower volatile organic compound’s emission. However, continuous research and experimentation are carried out to improve the quality and barrier properties of waterborne anticorrosive pigment.

• Around 45 % of manufacturers globally are transitioning to waterborne and eco-friendly anticorrosive pigments to reduce volatile organic compound emissions (according to World Paint & Coatings Federation, 2023).

• Approximately 50 % of marine and automotive companies in Asia Pacific adopted sustainable anticorrosive coatings in 2023 to comply with environmental regulations (according to Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, China, 2023).

DRIVING FACTORS

Increase in Infrastructure Development to Drive the Growth of the Market

The large-scale urbanization leads to reformed infrastructure to meet the demand for a high standard of living. The developing countries are witnessing a booming economy due to high cash flow.  The anticorrosive pigment market is expected to yield profit from the flourishing infrastructure sector in developing countries. Moreover, population expansion also contributes to the rising socio-economic needs, which directly propels the infrastructure of the country. The demand for protection and the upcoming infrastructure projects will be a major factor in the growth of the anticorrosive pigment market.

Growth of End-user Industries to Boost Anticorrosive Pigment Sales

The anticorrosive pigment market is heavily dependent on the end-user industry such as oil and gas, biomass, aviation, marine, automotive industry and others. These industries opt for anticorrosive pigment to protect the equipment from the harsh environment and prevent loss of metal. The marine industry is favoring anticorrosive pigment for an economical approach and effectiveness in the long run. The past decade has witnessed the development of the automotive industry. The automotive industry is another major sector contributing to the growth of the anticorrosive pigment market. The rise in income and purchasing power plays a crucial role in the growth of these end-user industries, which directly boosts the demand for anticorrosive pigments.

• Over 60 % of end-user industries, including marine, automotive, and construction, currently use anticorrosive pigments to protect metallic equipment from degradation (according to U.S. Department of Commerce, 2023).

• Nearly 70 % of infrastructure projects in developing countries like India and Vietnam now incorporate anticorrosive coatings to extend the lifecycle of metal structures (according to Asian Development Bank, 2023).

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Increase in the Price of Raw Materials to Hamper the Product Demand

The COVID-19 pandemic and frequent lockdowns accompanied by poor supply chain management created a dearth of raw materials as the international borders were shut down and businesses came to a sudden halt. However, in recent times the increase in the price of raw materials is posing a major concern. The geo-political tension has led to the unstable price trends of crude oil globally which contributes to the increase in the price of raw materials. The oil and gas industry went through massive changes to cope with the rising price. The volatile energy resources and the slowdown of the economy proved to be the major restraining factor in the growth of anticorrosive market share.

• Around 35 % of production costs in the anticorrosive pigment industry are affected due to the rise in raw material prices, such as titanium dioxide and zinc phosphate (according to International Paint & Coatings Association, 2023).

• Approximately 25 % of small- and medium-scale manufacturers reported supply chain disruptions in 2023, affecting timely delivery of anticorrosive pigments (according to OECD Industrial Outlook, 2023).
