Silicone Coating Market Trends
Growing Demand from the Building and Construction Industry fuels market growth
Building structures are shielded from the elements by the silicone coating, which adds another layer of defence. It is anticipated that the market would grow even more as silicone coating is used to waterproof roofs and improve UV resistance for longer durability. The market is expanding as a result of the rising construction activity worldwide.
For instance, the US Census Bureau reports that the number of privately owned housing units in the US was 15,94,000 in June 2021 and 16,35,000 in July 2021, a rise of 2.6%. Additionally, the residential and non-residential building and construction activities in the German area increased by 4.3% from 222,678 in 2019 to 232,208 in 2020, according to the German Federal Statistics Office. So, the market's growth is growing as building and construction activity increase ly.
Silicone coatings are used in the automotive industry for interiors and exteriors due to its numerous advantages such as resistance to heat above 200°C, moisture resistance, flexibility and softness, and more. The increasing automobile industry is driving up demand for silicone coating. According to the Organization Internationale des Constructeurs d'Automobiles (OICA), total motor vehicle manufacturing in North America in 2020 was 5,307,516 and in 2021 (until November 2021) was 6,999,932, a 32% increase.
Furthermore, total motor vehicle production in Europe in 2020 was 6,952,421 and in 2021 (until November 2021) was 8,807,069, a 27% increase. In addition, total motor vehicle manufacturing in North America was 17,818,598 in 2020 and 22,685,914 in 2021 (until November 2021), a 27% increase. Thus, it is expected that the rise of the automotive industry will drive market growth throughout the forecast period.
The increasing need for silicone coatings in the electronics industry is another factor driving the growth of the Silicone Coating Market. Because of their outstanding electrical insulating capabilities, thermal stability, and flexibility, silicone coatings are utilized in a wide range of electronic applications, including printed circuit boards, sensors, and connections.
As an example, Shin-Etsu Chemical, a prominent silicone coatings supplier, provides a variety of silicone-based solutions for the electronics sector, such as conformal coatings and encapsulants. These solutions are intended to provide improved resistance to moisture, dust, and other impurities, hence improving the reliability and performance of electronic components.
