The North America coating additives market size was valued at USD 3.18 Billion in 2024. The market is further projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.20% between 2025 and 2034, reaching a value of USD 4.80 Billion by 2034.
According to the North America coating additives market analysis, a shortage of houses on the market in the United States is prompting the demand for single-family housing projects. The country's infrastructural sector is also receiving robust governmental support, which aids the demand for additives in coatings. For instance, in January 2024, the government announced over USD 4.9 billion in funding to 37 projects through two major grant programs, the Infrastructure for Rebuilding America (INFRA) grant program and the National Infrastructure Project Assistance (Mega) grant program.
Additionally, the demand for sustainable coatings is rising in the market as the region focusses on reducing the carbon footprint of its construction sector, thus impacting the North America coatings additives market growth. These paints have low VOC and high bio-content. Paint producers are capitalising on this trend by offering these products to contractors and manufacturers who want to improve the sustainability credits for their projects. The use of organic rheology modifiers is free of VOCs and can be easily added to solventless and VOC-compliant solvent-based systems. These are derived from renewable, bio-based materials, like castor, and can increase the sustainability of paints and coating. Rheology modifiers are crucial additives in coating formulations, controlling their stability, application properties, and sag resistance.
