Saturated Polyester Resins Market expected to reach USD 7.18 billion by 2030

Saturated Polyester Resins Market Trends & Forecast

According to a research study published by Knowledge Sourcing Intelligence (KSI), the saturated polyester resins market will expand from USD 5.57 billion in 2025 to USD 7.18 billion in 2030 at a CAGR of 5.22% during the forecast period.

This resin has characteristics like versatility, weather resistance, chemical resistance, hardness, and color retention. The increased usage of smart devices such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops has led to the emergence of the e-commerce industry, which is expected to drive the market over the forecast period. E-commerce heavily relies on flexible as well as rigid packaging. The growing access to digital infrastructure and training is helping small business owners become more capable of leveraging e-commerce. The demand for packaging material is increasing rapidly.

Saturated Polyester Resins Market Report Highlights

• The saturated polyester resins market is broadly divided into liquid and solid saturated polyester resins, both serving distinct industrial applications. Liquid saturated polyester resins are known for their superior flexibility, adhesion, and gloss retention, making them ideal for can and coil coatings, automotive paints, and flexible packaging. These resins offer excellent resistance to chemicals and weathering, which enhances their suitability for high-performance applications requiring durable and aesthetic coatings.
• Based on application, the saturated polyester resins market is segmented into powder coatings, can and coil coatings, automotive paints, packaging, industrial paints, textiles/fabric coatings, and others. Powder coatings represent the leading application area, supported by growing demand in architecture, appliances, and industrial machinery due to their eco-friendly nature and excellent durability.
• The Asia Pacific region is expected to see the fastest growth in the saturated polyester resins market due to increasing applications in the packaging industry. The region is witnessing rapid development in the e-commerce segment. According to Invest India, the annual growth rate of e-commerce is expected to be 18% through 2025. By 2030, India is anticipated to emerge as the third-largest consumer market globally. North America is expected to have a significant market share for saturated polyester resins due to its major utilization in electronics, automotive, and other industrial uses.

Saturated Polyester Resins Market Growth Drivers

Growth Drivers:

• Growing Demand in Automotive Industry: In the automotive coatings sector, the rise in automobile production with the need for aesthetically pleasing finishes has significantly boosted the demand for these resins. According to the IEA (International Energy Agency), the sale of BEV (Battery Electric Vehicles) has risen from 4.7 million in 2021 to 7.3 million in 2022 and reached 9.5 million in 2023. The sale of PHEVs (Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles) has increased by 1.9 million in 2021, to 2.9 million in 2022, and reached 4.3 million in 2023.

BEVs were the most popular in Sweden in 2022, where 35% of new car sales were battery-electric, followed by the Netherlands with a 24% share. The success of electric vehicles has been attributed to the region's extensive charging infrastructure network. Over 560,000 publicly accessible charging points were installed in the EU by mid-2023, a 50 percent increase over the previous year. These developments, as well as the supporting policies, would accelerate the transition towards EVs.

• Growing Industrialization: Industrialization is driving sustained growth in jobs and productivity, marking the increased demand for materials in most developing countries. World Bank economists forecast that growth in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) would grow at a modest rate of 2.7% in 2024. Similarly, the Asia Pacific region’s growth is projected to be 4.5% in 2024.

Industrialization in the middle- and high-income economies is driven by the rapid transformation of the significance of manufacturing sectors. These developments led to the growth of the applications of saturated polyester resins, metal sheets, can and coil coatings, and automotive paints. They are also used in anti-corrosion coatings on iron and steel structures with epoxy-based primers.
