The escalating industries of aerospace and aviation, healthcare, construction and architecture, along with increased disposable income are recognized to be the significant factors driving this growth during the forecasted period. The leading trends expected to prevail during the forecast period encompass green and sustainable nanocoatings, anti-counterfeiting nanocoatings, bio-inspired nanocoatings, and industry collaboration.
The nanocoatings market is experiencing exponential growth, largely bolstered by the thriving automotive industry. Several factors such as the growth in middle-class income, a considerable youthful demographic, and accelerated urban growth have led to a surge in the automotive sector. These nanocoatings play a pivotal role in enhancing the endurance and sturdiness of automotive vehicles by providing protection against corrosion, scratches, and other damages. The continuous growth observed in the automotive sector is likely to escalate the demand for nanocoatings, as these are integral to various vehicle components. For example, a report by the Alliance for Automotive Innovation, a trade association based in the U.S., declared in April 2023 that light truck sales accounted for 79% of all the sales in March 2023. In addition, the February 2023 production of light vehicles in the U.S. witnessed an increment of 6% from the previous month, summing up to 873,247 vehicles (comprising of 147,870 cars and 701,972 light trucks). Therefore, the rapidly ascending automotive industry is projected to accelerate the growth of the nanocoatings market.

A notable trend gaining momentum in the nanocoatings market is the progression of technology. This involves the introduction of new technological findings such as a novel method that intermixes carbon nanotubes and aggregate to enhance corrosion inhibition, heighten durability, and provide additional advantages. Leading companies in the nanocoatings sector are focusing on creating technology-driven products to secure their foothold in the market. For example, Tesla NANOTEC-NSTDA, a governmental organization based in Thailand, unveiled a nano coating for PV panels in June 2023. This technology has the ability to reduce dust and water accumulation. The coating, in addition to being water and dirt resistant, is designed for effortless application and does not react with the PV panel, assuring no impact on the warranty. Furthermore, the product eschews harmful chemicals, positioning it as safe and eco-friendly. It is projected to last between 1 to 2 years.
