North America Tops Global Antimicrobial Coatings Market at 13.2% CAGR from 2012-18 Bolstered by Greater Awareness among End-Users

Heightened awareness about the serious health impact of poor indoor air quality will put the global anti-microbial coating market on course to achieving a 12% CAGR between 2012 and 2018. These are the findings of a latest report titled ‘Antimicrobial Coatings Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Trends, Analysis, Growth And Forecast, 2012 - 2018’ published by Transparency Market Research.

Furthermore, global antimicrobial coatings market, in terms of demand, will exhibit a 12.4% CAGR through the forecast horizon.The report finds that North America will hold a leading position in the global antimicrobial coatings market. And, at a CAGR of 13.2% over the forecast period, the North America antimicrobial coatings market is expected to grow faster than the overall market. 

While market players will continue to explore-and find-lucrative growth opportunities in North America, the report recommends that companies should also add Asia Pacific to their growth plans because it is the second-largest regional market. The report estimates that the Asia Pacific antimicrobial coatings market will exhibit a 12.3% CAGR from 2012-2018. Europe, on the other hand, will see some demand-albeit lukewarm-and will go on to register a moderate CAGR of 10.6% through the forecast period.Antimicrobial coatings are witnessing augmented demand because they provide an additional layer of defense against microorganisms.


As a result, they are in demand in industries such as construction, medical and healthcare, textiles, food, indoor air quality, and others. However, certain antimicrobial coatings are also known to have harmful effects because they contain active silver. The global antimicrobial coatings market will likely be hindered by environmental and health regulations too. Furthermore, in the wake of reports from the textile companies about the inefficacy of antimicrobial coatings in clothing-related applications, this industry vertical may not be too enthusiastic about  adopting such products.

Based on product type, the market has split into: Antimicrobial powder coatings and surface modifications and coatings. The former is sub-segmented into silver and others, whereas the latter is sub-segmented as: Listeria, E. Coli, Psuedomonas, and others. As of 2012, active silver stood as the most widely-used raw material within the global antimicrobial coatings market essentially because it is believed to be the most effective. Surface modifications and coatings, which constitute the majority of the antimicrobial coatings market by product type, are projected to chart healthy CAGR both in terms of revenues (12.2%) and volume (8.8%) over the forecast period. 


The report also studies the antimicrobial coatings market based on application by segmenting it as follows: Mold remediation, indoor air quality, medical/healthcare, construction, antimicrobial textiles, food, and others. Antimicrobial coatings will be predominantly used for enhancing indoor air quality, the report finds. This application segment will report a 12.8% CAGR from 2012 through 2018.

Furthermore, the report maps the competitive landscape within the global antimicrobial coatings market by profiling players such as: BASF, AkzoNobel N.V., Dow Microbial Control, Sherwin-Williams Company, Diamond Vogel Paints, E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Company (DuPont), and Royal DSM N.V.

Superabrasives (Turning, Cutting, Buffing, Drilling, Boring, Grinding) Market Research Report 2025

An abrasive is a material which molds or provides finishing to a work piece through a process which includes buffing, grinding, cutting, as well as polishing. Abrasion typically depends on the difference in the hardness of the material and the abrasive (with the latter being the harder of the two). Unlike regular abrasion where any two solid materials that repeatedly rub against each other tend to wear away, superabrasives possess the kind of hardness that enables them to stay usable for a longer period of time. On the basis of hardness, the top two superabrasives include diamond and cubic boron nitride (CBN). Industrial diamonds used as superabrasives are exceptionally hard materials. However, they display several technological limitations. For instance, when a diamond comes in contact with a ferrous alloy such as steel or a nickel superalloy, the resulting formation of carbide leads to its abrasion. Also, a diamond-containing tool can only be used at moderate temperatures a...

Industrial Lubricants Market: Strong Demand Across Automotive Industry, Trends To 2025

Lubricants refer to the organic or inorganic material primarily being use to decrease friction between two surfaces in contact. Lubricants play a key role in several industries as well as in commercial and residential sectors. One of their most common uses is in the lubrication of bearings and gears, allowing for their easy movement at high speeds, without loss in energy, prevent excessive generation of heat, or most importantly, prevent damage that would be caused otherwise. Industrial lubricants are, therefore, essential in enhancing the overall efficiency of a machine that contains moving parts in contact with one another. The global industrial lubricants market is currently expanding at a solid growth rate, driven by several factors and spearheaded by the likes of BP, Total, Chevron Corporation, ExxonMobil, and Shell.

Rapid Prototyping Market - Rapidly Gaining Importance in Aerospace Sector, Research By 2024

Rapid prototyping is a technique in which the physical modeling of a design is done with the help of specialized machining technology. It was developed initially in the mid-1980s, the principle used in this technology is of solid modeling with the help of computer programs (i.e. CAD). Solid modeling makes use of computer aided-design (CAD) data to completely describe not just the external shape of parts or equipment, but its interior volume as well as the outside surfaces. The computer model is sliced into thin layers and the part of the product or commodity to be modelled or developed as per the requirement, is eventually fabricated by adding layers onto each other. Obtain Report Details @   http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/rapid-prototyping-market.html The primary benefit of the system is that almost any shape can be manufactured using computerized programs. Time and money savings vary from 50% to 90% compared to conventional systems. Types of rapid proto...
