ZINC RICH PRIMER MARKET OVERVIEW

The global zinc rich primer market size in 2024 was estimated to be USD 1.7 billion, with projections to grow to USD 2.62 billion by 2033 at a CAGR of 4.95% during the forecast period.

Zinc Rich Primer is a primer containing zinc. It is used to protect steel against corrosion and improve the adhesion of paint or other coatings. There are two types of primers containing zinc: organic and inorganic. Organic primers are based on epoxy resin and inorganic primers on zinc silicate.

The global market for zinc-based primers is driven by the growing demand for metal components in the construction and marine industries. This market is also supported by various regulations regarding the use of organic coatings. Additionally, worker safety in hazardous environments and high cost of zinc-based paints compared to conventional paints are expected to contribute to the growth of the global organic zinc-based primer market.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Due to strict government regulations and reduced supply chains impede market growth

The COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the zinc rich primer market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

The global zinc rich primer market has been badly affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. Several sectors have been widely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, and the industrial coatings market is no different. The production and supply of industrial coatings was severely disrupted and adversely affected several end-user industries such as marine, construction, consumer goods and equipment, and automotive and others  due to strict government regulations. The pandemic situation has adversely affected the growth of the zinc primer market, causing a decrease in demand in several end-use industries.

LATEST TRENDS

Widespread adoption of zinc-based primer is expected to drive market growth

The zinc primer industry is driven by increasing demand from the targeted end-use industry. Another factor driving the market is the increasing demand for eco-friendly coatings in various end-use industries, including construction, automotive and aerospace. Government restrictions on the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOC) are strict, which has encouraged the creation of eco-friendly primers, increasing market revenues.

ZINC RICH PRIMER MARKET SEGMENTATION

By Type

According to type, the market can be segmented into Organic, Inorganic. Organic is anticipated to be the leading segment.

By Application

Based on application, the market can be divided into Ship & Offshore, Chemical Plant, Oil and Gas, Industrial Machinery, Construction, Others. Ship & Offshore will be dominating segment.

DRIVING FACTORS

Rapid industrialization and growing population will fuel the market growth

Rapid industrialization coupled with growing population and changing lifestyles has increased infrastructure development. The demand for corrosion protection of steel structures has also increased. These factors are driving the global demand for zinc rich primers. The increasing use of inorganic pigments as colorants in the plastics industry is driving the zinc rich primer market growth.

Rising awareness of the environmental and health benefits propel market growth

Growing awareness of the environmental and health benefits of organic zinc primers is a major driver of the global organic zinc primer market. This is due to the growing awareness of the benefits of using organic zinc primers, such as improved durability and corrosion resistance, reducing the release of VOCs into the environment. This awareness has led to an increase in the use of organic zinc primers in various end-use sectors such as automotive, marine and construction. Inorganic zinc rich primers offer better galvanic protection compared to organic zinc primers due to the reactivity of the silicate binder containing zinc particles. Inorganic zinc coatings are made with higher amounts of zinc due to its reactivity. These above-mentioned factors are expected to increase the global zinc rich primer market growth during the forecast period.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

High cost and lack of awareness can hinder market growth

Global organic zinc-based primers are facing a major setback due to the high cost of raw materials required to produce these primers. This factor has been a major hindrance to market growth as the high cost of raw materials has led to an increase in production costs, which in turn has led to a decline in demand for organic zinc-based primers.  Another major constraint to the growth of global organic zinc primers is the lack of awareness and understanding about the product among the end users. Many potential customers are unaware of the benefits of using organic zinc primers, so the demand for the product is low. As a result, this factor is hindering the growth of the global organic zinc rich primer market.
