Powder coatings refers to the dry finishing process, that is based on polymer resin systems, combined with curatives, pigments, levelling agents, flow modifiers, and other additives. There is a growing uptake of powder coatings as they enable a high-quality, durable finish to the surfaces. This further is catering to improved production activities, improved efficiencies, and simplified environmental compliance. The products or surfaces that are powder coated are more resistant to diminished coating quality as created by impact, moisture, chemicals, ultraviolet light, and other extreme weather conditions. This, in turn, lowers the risks of scratches, chipping, abrasions, corrosion, fading, and other wear issues.

In 2022, India constituted to about 3% of global powder coatings consumption in value and about 5% in volume. Despite the lower size of the Indian market, the country continues to be a fast-growing market for powder coatings.

The increasing concerns about environmental protection and sustainability are catering to a greater adoption of powder coatings and propelling the India powder coatings market growth. Powder coating resins allows for low-waste, solvent-free and high-durability solutions, supporting sustainability efforts.
