Market Overview:
The global specialty pigments market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for high-performance pigments and metal effect pigments, especially in Asia Pacific and Latin America. In terms of type, the global specialty pigments market is segmented into metal effect pigments, high-performance pigments, complex inorganic pigments, fluorescent PigMENTS luminescent PigMENTS , and other types. Of these segments, the metal effect pigment segment is expected to witness highest growth during the forecast period owing to its growing demand from end-use industries such as paints & coatings and printing inks. In terms of application, the global specialty pigment market is divided into paints & coatings; printing inks; plastics industry; toiletries; other applications (including cosmetics & personal care products, automotive parts & components etc.).
Product Definition:
A pigment is a material that changes the color of light that passes through it. Pigments are used in paints, inks, plastics, and other materials. Some pigments are made from natural materials such as minerals or plants. Others are made from synthetic materials.
Specialty pigments refers to those unique hues which add vibrancy and depth to a product – offering an elevated appearance.
Metal Effect Pigments:
Metal effect pigments are specialty pigments that exhibit properties such as high tinting strength, excellent light fastness and thermal stability. These products have gained wide acceptance in the cosmetics industry owing to their ability to provide high coverage with low concentration of pigment.
High-Performance Pigments:
High-performance pigments are a group of specialty organic pigments that have been developed to meet the requirements for high-temperature applications. These products are manufactured using unique raw materials and processing technologies which give them an edge over conventional inorganic or synthetic based pigment. The development of these products is driven by increasing demand from end-use industries such as construction, automotive, and packaging among others.
Application Insights:
Paints and coatings application segment led the global specialty pigments market in 2017, accounting for more than 35.0% share of the overall revenue. Increasing construction activities in emerging economies such as China, India and Brazil are expected to drive product demand in this application over the forecast period. In addition, growing urbanization leading to an increase in housing & commercial building projects is likely to augment industry growth over the coming years.
Specialty pigments used for printing ink applications include carbon blacks, phthalocyanine blue and quinacridone red among others which are used as colorants or additives that provide special effects when applied on paper or other substrates such as plastics & rubber products etc.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the largest market for specialty pigments in 2016 and accounted for over 35% of the global revenue share. The region is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period owing to growing industrialization, rising population, and increasing demand from end-use industries such as paints & coatings, plastics manufacturing, and printing inks.
The growth of these end-use industries can be attributed to rapid urbanization across emerging economies such as China and India along with other factors such as low labor costs due to a large youth population willing to work at substandard wages coupled with government support through various incentives & programs. This has resulted in high production volumes which will further drive product demand during the forecast period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as automotive, construction, and packaging
- Rising awareness about the benefits of specialty pigments among consumers
- Technological advancements in the production of specialty pigments
- Growing demand for environmentally friendly and sustainable products
- Expansion of global trade
