In addition, the low cost of these coatings compared to their counterparts is expected to have a favorable impact on the market over the forecast period. However, these coatings are ineffective during UV exposure, since the UV light reacts with the coated surface to form radicals. The aforementioned trend is expected to hamper its market growth.

EPA has framed numerous directives intended for reducing GHG emissions, which is anticipated to restrict the application scope of hazardous chemicals. Epoxy concrete floor coatings contain polycarbonate, which is declared hazardous by EPA. This inclination towards restricting VOC emissions coupled with growing awareness towards eco-friendly alternatives such as powder coatings is anticipated to challenge market growth over the forecast period.

Application Insights

The commercial application segment led the market and accounted for more than 53.0% share of the global revenue in 2022. Improvement in manufacturing sectors including automotive, and industrial manufacturing in the U.S., as a result of increasing application on a domestic level, is expected to upscale the requirements of coatings. The strong foothold of commercial spaces, as well as corporate houses in the U.S. owing to the well-established infrastructure, trained workforce, and close access to production units on a domestic level, is expected to be a favorable trend for the market in commercial applications.

Residential includes the consumption of concrete floor coatings in garages, patios, walkways, and basements for new houses and townhouses built by the owner or for the owner on contract. The residential construction sector in the country is primarily driven by the growth in single-family housing units. According to the United States Census Bureau, 903,000 single-family homes and 352,000 multi-family units were completed in 2019. Moreover, single-family housing units comprise additional features such as larger garages. The additional features of single-family housing units are directly linked to more usage of concrete flooring for various operations.

Patios are exposed to heat, moisture, and other environmental factors across the year, which creates the need to protect patio surfaces. In summer, the surface is exposed to extreme heat and UV rays, which can lower the build quality of the patio and fade the surface. While in winter, snow, sleet, and ice can wear down the patio. In addition, patios come in constant contact with dirt and grime. As a result, flooring solutions such as concrete floor coatings are used to strengthen patios, improve their appearance, and make them durable. These coatings are easy to clean & maintain and offer resistance against weather, moisture, UV, and abrasion.

End-User Insights

The professional end-user segment led the market and accounted for more than 72.0% share of the global revenue in 2022. The professional end-user segment dominated the market and is anticipated to maintain its dominance over the forecast period. Professional concrete floor coating application is more durable as compared to DIY. Trained professionals use specialized equipment such as a shot blaster or diamond grinder to mechanically clean and abrade the floor in order to ensure the coatings adhere appropriately to the concrete and do not peel or delaminate over time. Thus, the application done by professionals is cost-effective in the long run owing to the low requirement of maintenance and high durability as compared to DIY.

The Do-it-yourself (DIY) concrete floor coatings segment is expected to witness a growth rate of 5.1% during the forecast period. It is primarily gaining popularity in residential applications owing to the low cost incurred as compared to professional. However, low durability as compared to professionalism is expected to impact the growth of DIY during the forecast period.
