UAE Specialty Coatings Market Overview, Trends, Size and Forecast: 2025-2030

UAE Specialty Coatings Market size is valued at around USD 136.92 million in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 211 million by 2030. Along with this, the market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of around 9.03% during the forecast period, i.e., 2025-30, cites MarkNtel Advisors in the recent research report. The market growth is driven by several growth factors, including the well-established oil & gas industry in the country, high exposure of machinery and metal equipment exposed to harsh environmental conditions, growing urbanization, development of infrastructure, the integration of sustainability in the manufacturing methods of specialty chemicals, etc.

One of the major growth factors is the widespread expansion of the manufacturing facilities in the country to produce specialty chemicals locally, without dependence on international markets. Additionally, the improved trading between international countries and the UAE is contributing to the potential market growth. Also, the renewable energy sectors in the UAE are contributing to the market growth due to the requirement for upgradation of aging infrastructure in the country, which has a huge quantity of metal equipment, requiring the application of specialty coatings.

Moreover, the rising paper & pulp industry in the UAE, consisting of heavy-duty machines, is increasing the demand for specialty coatings, as they are exposed to chemicals, moisture, water, and salts for longer durations. Furthermore, the adoption of sustainable specialty coatings, due to rising environmental concerns, is significantly gaining traction in this market. However, the limited production facilities resulted in the high dependence on imports and volatile prices of raw materials, which are restraining the growth of the market, further states the research report, “UAE Specialty Coatings Market Analysis, 2025.”
