The Europe wood coatings market was valued at $2.4 billion in 2018, and is projected to reach $3.9 billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 6.0% from 2019 to 2026. Wood coatings are chemical formulations generally used for wood processing. These coatings provide the superior quality on the wood surface and are used for variety of purposes, which include better hygiene, stabilization, and decoration of wood. These coatings are widely used for enhancing wood’s shelf life and aesthetic value. They are used in various industries such as food packaging industry, building & infrastructure, furniture, and others.

Growth of the building & construction industry is one of the important factors that drives the growth of the Europe wood coating market. Rise in construction activities across the Europe fuels the demand of the wood coatings. German government is now focusing on modernization of existing infrastructure and has laid down a new federal transport plan that is likely to be the biggest investment program on infrastructure in the world. This huge investment for infrastructure modernization is expected to propel the Europe wood coating market. Wood coating can be employed on large scale as it is the most efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly coating. Furthermore, increase in disposable income of consumers and rise in standard of living fuel the demand for modern furniture such as chairs, tables, shelves, bed frames, cupboards, and chests of drawers across the Europe. This is further expected to drive the demand for wood coatings.

However, stringent environmental regulation imposed by the European government & other regulatory bodies on the use of volatile organic compounds (VOC) in the production of wood coating is expected to hamper the growth of the Europe wood coatings market. This is attributed to the fact that increased use of VOCs in the production of wood coatings has harmful impact on the environment.

In addition, volatile raw material prices restrain the growth of the market. On the other hand, advancement in coatings technology and surge in use of radiation cure coatings are some of the factors that provide lucrative opportunities for the growth of the Europe wood coating market.

The Europe wood coatings market is segmented on the basis of resin type, technology, application, and country. Depending on resin type, the market is classified into polyurethane, nitrocellulose, acrylic, unsaturated polyester, and others. By technology, it is fragmented into waterborne, solvent borne, high solid solvent borne, powder coating, radiation cured, and others.
