Aerospace Coatings Market Regional Analysis

North America now leads the aerospace coatings industry in large part. It is due to the presence of major aircraft manufacturers and high demand from the commercial and defense sectors, which have leading aerospace coatings users such as Boeing and Lockheed Martin in the US. It is also a research hub in aerospace because firms in the region are designing new coatings and technologies in a continuous process for application both in OEM and MRO. Leadership in North America market is also deriving from the defense contracts won, aircraft manufacturing surge and increased air tourism usage as well. The need for better coatings in the region is further enhanced by considerations on sustainability and fuel efficiency.

In the future years, Asia-Pacific will hold the largest aerospace coatings market share. Major factors motivating this growth include increased spending in both commercial and defense aviation, coupled with increasingly high demand for air travel among countries such as China, India, and Japan. Advancement in aerospace coatings will require more frequent applications as this region's economy continues its rapid growth and increases aircraft demand for new aircraft. The region's governments, additionally, are also investing so much in the aerospace business, which also includes increase in aircraft production and updates of maintenance and repair. APAC has emerged as one of the key players in the future growth of the aerospace coatings industry, considering the expansion of low-cost airlines and rising passenger traffic.
