The domestic high-end heavy-duty anti-corrosion coating market is still occupied by foreign companies, and the industry still needs to develop towards high-end development.

Heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings are a type of anti-corrosion coating that can achieve anti-corrosion effects on steel and other metal materials in harsh environments and have a longer anti-corrosion protection period than conventional anti-corrosion coatings. Heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings are the coating products with the most development potential. They have a variety of product types. According to the raw materials, they can be divided into acrylic, epoxy resin anti-corrosion coatings, alkyd anti-corrosion coatings, etc.; according to the environmental protection attributes, they can be divided into high-solid coatings, Water-soluble paint, solvent-free paint, etc. Heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings have a wide range of applications and can be used in petrochemical, aerospace, automotive, marine engineering, construction, railway and other fields.

There are various types of domestic heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings, and the raw materials involve many subdivisions. However, thanks to the letters issued by the domestic chemical industry in recent years, the supply of raw materials for heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings in my country is sufficient, which is conducive to the development of the heavy-duty anti-corrosion coating industry. In terms of application market analysis, the market demand for heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings is mainly concentrated in the two major fields of industry and shipbuilding. Industrial protection demand accounts for more than 45%, the shipbuilding industry accounts for about 34%, and container manufacturing and marine engineering both account for 10%. .

According to the “2021-2025 Heavy-duty Anticorrosive Coatings Industry In-depth Market Research and Investment Strategy Suggestions Report” released by the Industrial Research Center, the heavy-duty anti-corrosion coating industry Anti-corrosion coatings have a wide range of applications. Driven by the development of terminal industries, the market demand for heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings has shown a growth trend, from 3 million tons in 2015 to about 4 million tons in 2020. With the growth of market demand, the market size of heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings has also continued to rise, growing from 75 billion yuan in 2015 to 94 billion yuan in 2020. It can be seen from this that my country’s heavy-duty anti-corrosion coating industry is in a stable growth trend.

In terms of supply, my country’s heavy-duty anti-corrosion coating industry started late, but developed rapidly. In 2015, the output was about 3 million tons, but then the output showed rapid growth, reaching 4.7 million tons in 2020. In terms of regional competition, my country’s heavy anti-corrosion coating production is mainly concentrated in Guangdong, Shandong, Jiangsu, Hebei and other provinces, mainly in the eastern region.

In terms of market competition, the trial production of high-end heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings in my country is mainly occupied by foreign companies. Overseas companies have leading production technology, higher product performance, and earlier layout in the domestic high-end market, so they currently occupy a relatively high market share. At present, about 80% of the domestic high-end heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings market is occupied by Japan’s China Paint, the United States’ PPG, Norway’s Jotun, Hempel, South Korea’s KCC, etc. Chinese companies are currently mainly concentrated in the mid- to low-end market. Representative companies include Lehua Group and Dewei Paint, etc. They do not have competitive advantages in the fields of containers, automobiles, ships, etc.

Industry analysts said that heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings have various types and a wide range of applications. Driven by the development of terminal industries, domestic heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings have become more popular in recent years. The market demand for anti-corrosion coatings continues to rise. From the perspective of future development, as domestic environmental protection supervision becomes stricter, the demand for green and functional coatings will be higher in the future. In terms of production, the current domestic high-end heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings market is mainly occupied by foreign companies, and the industry will inevitably form domestic substitutes in the future.
