United States. The U.S. antimicrobial coatings market is expected to reach $1.2 billion by 2017, according to a report by the company Global Industry Analysts.
This type of coating has gained worldwide notoriety thanks to its use in a large number of end-use applications. In fact, its presence in spaces such as the healthcare industry, air conditioning and final consumer markets reaffirm the growth potential of this type of coating, explains the report.
In addition to the above, the company stressed that the volatility of the economic environment in recent years did not affect the growth of the antimicrobial coatings market, especially since the fear caused by diseases such as H1N1 flu played an important role in maintaining demand in the HVAC, food packaging and medical device industries.
Finally, Global Industry Analysts highlighted that the advances achieved in the production of this type of products, as well as the development of new greener coatings will be another key factor for the growth of this market in the coming years.
