Market Insights and Analyst View:

Antimicrobial coatings are coatings that are treated with an antimicrobial agent and applied to a surface to prevent the growth of bacteria, mold, mildew, or algae. The most common actives used to manufacture antimicrobial coatings include various isothiazolinone treatments, silver, zinc pyrithione, and quaternary ammonium compounds. Antimicrobial coatings add value and functionality to finished products by reducing odors, staining, and by extending product life. An antimicrobial coating offers proven surface protection by controlling the growth of unwanted bacteria and fungi.  The antimicrobial coatings are used for various applications such as housewares, commercial, industrial, outdoor, building products, and healthcare these factors are expected to propel the antimicrobial coatings market growth.

Growth Drivers and Challenges:

The demand for antimicrobial coatings has been rising in healthcare setting for sterilization of medical devices. However, the use of antimicrobial coatings is not limited to medical industry and has been expanding across diversified end use industries such as indoor air/HVAC applications along with building and construction, food & beverage, mold remediation, and packaging.

For building and construction purpose, the antimicrobial coatings are used to cover the walls and surfaces of manufacturing capabilities, factories, and stations to keep them away from the propagation of microbes. Moreover, these coatings find applications in residential and commercial facilities, indoor handles, flooring and roofing systems, workstations, and other such places. In food & beverage industry, the antimicrobial edible films and coatings protect foodstuff against spoilage and help minimize the risk of pathogen propagation on the food surface. Additionally, these coatings are used to wrap fish and meat products as well as fruits and vegetables. The positive impact of globalization, improvements in manufacturing capabilities in developing economies, and incorporation of advanced technologies are among the factors bolstering the demand for antimicrobial coatings. Additionally, the demand of antimicrobial coatings has increased across diversified application bases during COVID-19, SARS, and other such pandemic.

 However, biocidal chemicals used in antimicrobial coatings are considered inherently toxic. Such biocidal products show destructive effect toward several types of cells/organisms apart from target organisms and are also proved to be harmful for humans, animals, and environment. All such factors may restrict the growth of the market.
