By Technology, the Water-borne segment is projected to dominate the market size in 2024

Waterborne coatings, utilized extensively in the automotive OEM sector in APAC, are characterized by their high water content as a solvent, which disperses resins. Glycol ethers are included in minimal quantities to facilitate application. Waterborne technology's eco-friendliness derives from its reduced solvent usage and faster application. However, waterborne coatings' water evaporation process is slower than solvent-borne coatings due to environmental conditions. Although waterborne coatings may release minimal harmful fumes when combined with reducers, their emission levels are significantly lower than those of solvent-borne coatings.

By Vehicle Type, Passenger cars  segment is expected to hold the largest market size for the year 2024

In the Automotive OEM Coatings Market in APAC, the passenger cars segment holds the largest market share based on vehicle type. This segment's significant growth potential stems from the expanding automotive industry, particularly in the small vehicle segment. The increasing population and rising disposable income in emerging countries, such as India, which is projected to reach 72 vehicles per 1,000 people penetration rates by 2025, present lucrative opportunities for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to enhance their sales in the region. The passenger cars segment's growth is expected to significantly contribute to the market expansion during the forecast period.

APAC is forecasted to hold the largest market size by region in 2024

The Automotive OEM Coatings market in APAC is experiencing significant growth due to increasing vehicle production and rising demand for advanced coating technologies. Key players in this market are investing in research and development to offer innovative solutions, such as waterborne and powder coatings, to meet stringent environmental regulations. Additionally, the region's expanding automotive industry and favorable economic conditions are fueling market expansion.
