CHEMICAL SURFACE TREATMENT MARKET DRIVERS:
- Growing demand from the automobile industry
The automotive industry has been using surface treatment processes to build safety requirements and function of components within vehicles. General processes used in the surface treatment included anodizing, powder coating, and chrome-free chemical conversion coating. These processes provide several benefits, including corrosion-resistant and harder-wearing surfaces. The automotive industry has been witnessing significant growth worldwide. These developments are driven by multiple factors, such as evolving markets in Asia and Africa, demand for EVs, and growing demand for premium segment cars.
According to OICA (International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers), vehicle manufacturing increased in India and China in 2023, with 7% and 12% from the previous year. Furthermore, European countries like Italy, France, Russia, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Spain witnessed increases of 11%, 9%, 20%, 17%, 18%, and 10% respectively. These significant increases from the previous year led to the demand for input chemicals needed for manufacturing.
- Increasing demand from the aerospace industry
According to the Eurostat, there were 820 million in 2022. This increased number of passengers in Europe signifies the increased air traffic, mainly due to the rise in global tourism. However, the increased demand for aircraft has also played a critical role in supplying the sector. In the first quarter of 2023, Boeing and Airbus delivered 83 and 142 aircraft compared to 130 and 127, respectively. Surface treatment, such as electroplating, has been an important part of aviation manufacturing. The cadmium coating is used in the aircraft landing gear parts and similar components. Phosphate coating is used in the aviation industry to manufacture actuators and flaps/rudders. These processes are necessary for the development of better-quality components for aircraft.
- Increasing use of chemical surface treatment in the construction industry
The construction and building industry worldwide is showing a significant pace of growth and development. One of the primary reasons for this industry’s expansion is the growing urbanization and migration crisis worldwide. The rate of urbanization is significant in the developing part of the world. Developing countries are witnessing increased industrialization and demand for more labor in cities, creating demand for new houses. This also includes the construction of large urban populations, that is, parks, hospitals, hotels, restaurants, houses, buildings, etc.
In the construction industry, surface treatment processes are used for corrosion protection, metal coloring, and surface priming for painted materials. The housing development in Germany has been significant, and 295,300 newly built apartments were added in 2022. According to the Federal Statistical Office, the housing stock and living space have grown faster over the past ten years than the population in Germany. According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, a total number of dwellings commenced in Australia 39,715 dwellings in the March quarter; the new private sector houses drove the increase, rising to 25,072 dwellings. These changes in housing have caused the demand for multiple chemical inputs in the industry, including chemical surface treatment.
