The expanding automotive industry is anticipated to drive the growth of the acrylic powder coating market in the future. The automotive sector involves the design, development, manufacturing, marketing, and sale of motor vehicles, including cars, trucks, motorcycles, and their parts and accessories. This industry is experiencing growth due to the rising global demand for electric vehicles, advancements in autonomous driving technologies, and increasing consumer preferences for mobility solutions and smart transportation systems. Acrylic powder coating is utilized in the automotive industry to deliver durable, weather-resistant, and UV-stable finishes that protect vehicle surfaces from corrosion, scratches, and environmental wear while enhancing their aesthetic appeal. For example, in September 2024, the Office for National Statistics, a UK government department, reported that the manufacturing sector for motor vehicles increased by $12.8 billion (£9.6 billion), representing a 22% rise, bringing the total to $71 billion (£53.3 billion) in 2023. Consequently, the growing adoption of acrylic powder coatings in the automotive sector is propelling market growth.

Leading companies in the acrylic powder coating market are focusing on developing advanced products, such as acrylic coating systems, to achieve a smooth, high-gloss finish. These systems, made from acrylic resins, act as protective layers that offer durable, weather-resistant, and UV-stable finishes for various surfaces, enhancing their appearance while protecting them from environmental damage. For instance, in July 2024, Akzo Nobel N.V., a Netherlands-based paints and coatings firm, introduced the Selva Pro range of 2K polyurethane and acrylic coating systems. This range includes three systems, the Selva Pro Chiaro and Selva Pro Bianco polyurethane systems, as well as the Selva Pro Acrilico acrylic system. Selva Pro Acrilico features a smooth formulation that highlights the natural beauty of wood grain, making it ideal for high-quality and expressive wood types. It offers multiple finish options, including a pigmented topcoat, a neutral topcoat, a clear topcoat, and a clear ‘Naturale’ topcoat with a contemporary dead flat finish that aligns with current design trends. Similar to Selva Pro Bianco, the Acrilico neutral topcoat provides excellent tinting stability when mixed with a neutral base.

In February 2023, Kansai Helios, an Austria-based chemical manufacturing company, acquired CWS Lackfabrik GmbH for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition enhances Kansai Helios' capabilities in powder coatings and synthetic resins, solidifying its position as a comprehensive systems supplier. Furthermore, Kansai Helios intends to enhance its competitiveness and expand its market share in the industrial coatings sector by integrating CWS's expertise. CWS Lackfabrik GmbH is a German chemical manufacturing company that specializes in acrylic powder coatings and synthetic resins.
