What Trends Are Shaping The Zinc Rich Primer Market?
Key players in the zinc-rich primer market, such as PPG Industries Inc., are strategizing to create advanced eco-friendly products like VOC-free powders, in an effort to improve environmental sustainability and fulfill regulatory standards. VOC-free powders are a type of green coating solution that prevents the release of volatile organic compounds, ensuring a safer application process while still maintaining high efficiency and longevity. In August 2024, PPG Industries Inc, a renowned USA-based paints and coatings manufacturer successfully launched PPG Primer. This is a highly efficient powder primer containing optimized zinc which is lighter and more easily applied due to its lower specific gravity of 2.0 compared to traditional zinc-rich primers. Its 85% transfer efficiency leads to decreased material consumption and reduced expenditure. This groundbreaking primer does not contain any solvents and therefore minimizes VOC emissions. It also offers improved adhesion and resistance against corrosion, making it particularly effective in maritime climates. PPG's PPG PRIMERON Optimal showcases the company's commitment to eco-friendly innovations and advances in powder coating technology, as stated by the company's powder coatings business manager, Shelley Verdun.
