The International Paint and Printing Ink Council’s (IPPIC) second Global Paint & Coatings Industry Market Analysis Report (2009 – 2014) is now available. This research report offers insight into the size, growth rate, market dynamics, customer and competitive movements, and important trends and driving forces within the global paint and coatings industry.

Compiled by researchers at Orr & Boss the new report provides more detailed information on specific countries and major regions. In addition, a new chapter is included focusing on raw materials used for various coatings products entering the market. This new content focuses on the volume, value, trends, driving forces and regulatory developments related to those raw materials.

As it did before, the report covers the three primary categories of coatings—Decorative, OEM and Special Purpose—and the many sub-segments within each of these categories.

The recent recession has caused significant disruption in the global coatings market. Some regions and segments of the industry have suffered major declines, and some end-use market segments have undergone considerable regional shifts. As a result, many coatings industry participants have had to adjust their short- to mid-term operating practices and marketing strategies and while some companies have been forced into survival mode.

The single-volume Global Paint & Coatings Industry Market Analysis Report (2009 – 2014) is packed with information including charts, graphs, tables and other illustrations. Anyone in need of solid, up-to-date information about the global coatings marketplace will benefit from this report.
