China to Dominate the Asia- Pacific region
- Asia-Pacific is the largest ship producing region in the world, catering to the demand for various types of vessels, ranging from ferries, small boats, fishing vessels, tow and tugboats, to the oil industry vessels, cargo ships, passenger ships, bulk carriers, and container ships.
- In Asia-Pacific, countries, such as China, Japan, and South Korea, are the leading producers of vessels, while large shipyards also exist in various other nations of the region. China accounts as the largest market for marine coatings, owing to both growing new shipbuilding and repair activities.
- The decline in the shipbuilding industry, and the slowdown of Chinese economy are the roadblocks for the expansion of the marine coatings market.
- Oversupply of ships has disturbed the entire ship-building industry in the country. The government has been trying to cut on subsidizing over-capacity. This has had an impact on marine OEM for building new ships.
- The adoption of green tax by Chinese government, along with other initiatives, to reduce emissions have pushed the coatings companies to adopt high solid, solvent-less and waterborne coatings.
- According to The Cruise Lines International Association estimation, around 300 million Chinese consumers would able to afford cruise trips soon. Also, in the next 10-20 years, the number of Chinese taking cruise ships is expected to surpass even that of the United states travelers annually.
- All the above-mentioned factors are expected to drive the cruise industry in China, which in turn is expected to increase the market for marine coatings in the country.
