The newly revised Environmental Protection Law came into force. As this industry has been hailed as the most stringent environmental law in the country, the implementation of a number of industry standards and the rapid changes in consumer demand for health products, Some experts said that the paint market in China will have more changes, of which 'environmental protection' is the common theme of choice.
At this stage, although environmentally-friendly coatings currently use less than 50% of the market in China, water-based paint, for example, is subject to market maturity is not high, the end-user is more price sensitive and other factors, has been in the 'hot industry, cold market 'State, but some experts pointed out that the upcoming implementation of the new environmental regulations, water-based coatings is expected to usher in a huge opportunity for development.
It is reported that the paint industry is divided into four categories of architectural coatings, automotive coatings, industrial coatings (including ships, containers), non-metallic coatings (including furniture, etc.), although currently occupies the total market of about 1 / Coatings account for about 95% of the market, but in the other three categories, the market share of water-borne coatings is not high, including wood furniture coatings commonly used by ordinary consumers and only 5% -8% of furniture companies adopt water-based coating.
Why furniture companies are reluctant to use water-based paint? First, because consumers are not concerned about finished furniture paint is water-based or oily, and most wood furniture production lines can only use oily coatings, if the switch to water-based paint, it means However, new wooden furniture manufacturers may increase their demand for water-based paints after the new environmental regulations are implemented.
For the consumer, the outdoor environment in many big cities is not good nowadays, so everybody hopes the environment in the home is better and the paint will naturally require low toxicity, low voc (volatile organic compound), etc. The new environmental regulations are spawned Not only low voc, low toxicity, and even can help clean the air inside the room, eliminate formaldehyde and other harmful substances.
Some experts said that energy-saving environmental protection is a major trend of architectural coatings in the energy-saving environmental protection, not only means that the product to cause less harm to the environment, but also means that the building should also be helpful, for example, some coatings can help buildings Achieve insulation, thermal insulation effect --- By reflecting the sun, slow heat transfer, reduce indoor temperature, energy saving and environmental protection effect, such products are usually annual savings of 4% -9% of refrigeration capacity.
