Paint Protection Film Market Dynamics

Driver: Increasing Consumer Awareness Regarding Automobile Paint Protection

Considering the trend from the recent past, emerging economies like India, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam along with a few Central American countries such as Brazil and Argentina have been at the crux of global automotive industry growth. The growing population coupled with industrialization has resulted in high income levels and a rising standard of living, thereby increasing the demand for personal vehicles. Paint protection films find their origin in military transport and defense applications and continue their use in these industries to date. Consumers believed in spending on repainting the vehicle instead of making use of paint protection films in the past. Over the last few years, this trend has been changing with the retailers and manufacturers of paint protection films observing considerable growth in sales.

This is attributed to the added customer awareness through marketing and expansion into the OEM market. The shift in consumer preference toward keeping the vehicle’s finish intact coupled with the rising awareness for automobile maintenance is expected to boost the demand for paint protection films. Automobile manufacturers saw the added advantage of using these films when they started applying these films on new vehicles. Paint protection film usage in the electrical and electronics sector for mobile phones, keyboards, and screens has increased owing to the increasing consumer awareness regarding the benefits of the product which can drive the consumption of paint protection film over the forecast period.

Driver: High Demand from Automotive Industry

The global automotive industry has been witnessing booming growth and profitability with annual sales reaching pre-pandemic levels in some regions. Over the recent past, there has been a positive outlook in the automotive sector across various regions, from developed markets such as the U.S. to developing markets such as India.

The global automotive industry is growing at a rapid pace on account of the accelerating technological transformations including no petroleum-based fuel or hybrid vehicles, autonomous driving, and new mobility services. The industry is expected to witness significant growth owing to the increasing sales and demand in the emerging economies of India, China, and Brazil. However, the outbreak of COVID-19 in China and other countries in the Asia Pacific, including India, Australia, Thailand, and Malaysia resulted in nationwide or partial lockdowns to contain the spread of coronavirus. The outbreak has also caused a sharp slowdown in the automobile industry, which hindered overall market growth. However, the auto manufacturing sector in the Asia Pacific is slowly resuming its operations due to vaccination drives, which fueled the market growth in 2021.

Restraint: Increasing Use of Ceramic Coating in the Automotive Sector

Ceramic coating is gaining prominence in the automotive sector due to its ability to blend with the paint of the vehicle and the creation of an additional hydrophobic layer of protection. The chemically intrinsic properties of ceramic coating prevent it from breaking down in normal atmospheric conditions during summer or monsoon seasons. In addition, ceramic coating includes matte and gloss finishes, which further make it a viable alternative to paint protection films. Unlike paint protection films, ceramic coating does not require proper installation training and can be easily applied on car surfaces, thus contributing to its adoption in the automotive market. Ceramic coatings exhibit high impact resistance, superior heat resistance, abrasion resistance, and water and chemical resistance, making them suitable to be used as a protective sealant for automotive components such as the undercarriage, wheel hubs, engine bay, and other interior components. Paint protection films face limitations compared to ceramic coating, in terms of vehicle interior components. This drives automotive manufacturers to consider ceramic coatings for vehicle surface protection, thus, posing a significant challenge to the paint protection film market growth. The growing demand for ceramic coating, on account of the benefits offered by it, has witnessed the launching of new products by ceramic coating manufacturers, thus, creating growth opportunities for ceramic coatings in the automotive market. In January 2022, Advanced Nanotech Lab announced to launch of 10H ceramic coating, 9H ceramic coating, and hybrid variants for one of the largest automotive manufacturers in Asia. This is expected to further challenge the paint protection film consumption in Asia Pacific.
