Water-Based Resins Market Trends:

Water-based resins are the prime constituent of latex-based paints or any water-reducible coatings or paints, as they completely dissolve in water and other solvents. These resins are gaining traction in the coating industry as compared with their solvent-based counterparts due to continued technological advancement.

The increasing propensity towards eco-friendly products and regulations such as VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) regulations, regulations related to worker safety/exposure, and other environmental concerns are driving the demand for water-based resins. Stringent government regulations to control air pollution and improve the quality of air are increasing the demand for high-solid, solvent-less, and waterborne technologies, boosting the water-based resins market growth.

By type, the acrylic resins segment is expected to have a significant market share and is also projected to witness rapid growth on account of its versatility. The market of adhesives and sealants segment is expected to witness growth owing to increasing construction activities. Growth in the furniture and fitting sector is also boosting the growth of the segment.

By application, the paint and coating segment is expected to have a significant market share owing to increasing construction activities in emerging economies. The surging automobile industry is also propelling the growth of the paint and coatings segment. The inked segment is also expected to grow owing to its increasing applications.

Geographically, the Asia Pacific region is expected to have a significant market share of the global water-based resins market. The market share is projected to grow owing to the growth in environmental concerns, along with the increasing preference for environment-friendly methods and the growing number of end-users in the region. China holds a significant market share of water-based resins in the Asia Pacific region on account of stringent government regulations.
