Global Market Size, Forecast, and Trend Highlights Over 2025-2037
Ultraviolet (UV) Coatings Market size was over USD 4.46 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 8.73 billion by 2037, witnessing around 5.3% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of UV coatings is assessed at USD 4.66 billion.
UV coatings are protective coatings for wood, plastics, and paper, which are cured using UV radiations. The growth of the market can be attributed to the excellent coverage and light stability delivered by UV coatings. Moreover, advantageous features, such as, abrasion resistance, higher shine finish, very less drying time, and high clarity in coating, are estimated to raise the demand for UV coatings in the market. In addition to this, the growing consumption of coatings and enamels amongst the end-user industries, including, construction, electronics, printing, and others, is estimated to increase the demand for UV coatings. According to the statistics by the International Trade Center (ITC), the total export value of varnishes and enamels amounted around USD 14,161,245 thousand in 2020. Along with this, these coatings are environment friendly, as UV coatings are free of solvents, and do not emit any volatile organic compounds, which is estimated to propel the market growth.
