Product Definition:
Pigments that impart special effects to a coating, such as metallic or pearlescent finishes. Special-effect pigments are important because they can add value and visual interest to a coating, making it more appealing to consumers.
Metallic Pigment:
Metallic pigment is a type of dye which consists of three elements: metal, chemical compounds and micro-organisms. The most common example of metallic pigment is gold which can be found in nature as well as manufactured by human beings. Some other examples are silver, copper, platinum and zinc.
The usage of metallic pigments depends on the end use industry such as cosmetics & personal care or industrial applications like printing ink or paints & coatings among others.
Pearlescent Pigment:
Pearlescent pigment is a special effect pigment that can be used to create a two-dimensional or three-dimensional finish on any material. It consists of microcrystalline wax with the appearance of natural pearly texture and it’s produced by adding shellac, binder, and oil together in an appropriate proportion. The product has high resistance to abrasion & solvent and exhibits excellent color retention for materials such as metals, plastics & polymers.
Application Insights:
Paints & coatings application segment led the global special-effect pigment market in 2017, accounting for more than 35.0% share of the overall revenue. Increasing construction activities in emerging economies including China and India are expected to drive the demand for paints & coatings over the forecast period, thereby supporting segment growth.
The plastics industry is also anticipated to witness significant growth on account of increasing consumer spending on luxury goods including cars and electronics owing to growing disposable income levels coupled with rising per capita incomes across various regions globally. This factor is projected to have a positive impact on product demand in plastics applications over the next seven years.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing regional market with a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030 owing to rapid industrialization and urbanization, which has led to an increase in construction activities. In addition, rising disposable income levels are anticipated to fuel the demand for consumer goods such as automobiles and home d©cor products, thereby driving the demand for special effect pigment in paints & coatings industry over the forecast period.
Europe was estimated as one of the largest markets for special-effect pigment with a revenue share of 22.2% in 2017 owing high product penetration by Metallic Pigment category across countries such as Germany, U.K.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for special effect pigments in automotive and aerospace industries due to their properties such as high heat resistance, light weight, and corrosion resistance.
- Rising demand from the growing packaging industry for various applications such as labels, inks, and coatings.
- Growing popularity of special effect pigments in the cosmetics industry due to their ability to impart unique colors and textures to products.
