Additionally, with the offset of COVID-19, the demand for commercial aircraft has also witnessed a sharp increase in the subsequent years, i.e., 2021 & 2022. For instance, in 2021, Airbus announced that it received an order of 255 commercial aircraft from the US private equity firm Indigo Partners. As per the company, it is the first mega-deal received after the COVID-19 pandemic. Hence, this further resulted in escalating the demand for aircraft paints & coatings during the forecast period.

Impact of Covid-19 on the Global Aircraft Paints and Coatings Market

COVID-19 severely impacted the Global Aircraft Paints and Coatings Market in 2020. Commercial airlines were the major contributors to the demand for the market. Therefore, the less up-gradation of the commercial aircraft during the pandemic resulted in a decline in the market growth. Further, due to the disruption in the supply chain, the companies operating in the paint & coatings industry have seen a major decline in the demand for paints. In addition, according to Airport Council International, the revenues of the airports dropped by 49% in North America, 42% in Europe, 43% in the Middle East, 48% in Asia-Pacific, and 38% in Latin America. The trend depicts the huge financial losses incurred by the aviation industry, which limited the capital expenditure on the purchase of the new aircraft as well as stalled their overhaul programs.

During the pandemic, companies such as HMG paints are constantly employing innovative techniques to stabilize their operation & maintain a high level of stocks for finished goods. Hence, resulted in improving the overall growth of the paints & coatings market.

Market Segmentation

Based on the Resin Type:

  • Polyurethane
  • Epoxy
  • Others (Silicone, Polyester, and Acrylic)

Of them all, Polyurethane and Epoxy-based paints and coatings are expected to retain major market share in the Global Aircraft Paints & Coating market in the forecast period. Some of the reasons attributing to the upcoming growth are their high durability as well as enhanced protection against dust and which reduces the aerodynamics of an aircraft.

In addition, polyurethane paint with higher cross-link density as compared to epoxy paint marked them more durable against the air temperature and pressure. It offers more resistance to abrasion, staining, and other harmful chemicals. Further, these paints have a high degree of natural resistance to the damaging effects of ultraviolet rays from the sun. Due to these factors, the demand for Polyurethane based paint has grown in the aviation industry.

Based on Technology:

  • Water-based
  • Solvent-based
  • Powder Coating

Among them, Solvent-based Paints & Coatings have extensive usage in the exterior painting of an aircraft.
