Industry Overview
The global polyurea coatings market is anticipated to grow from USD 0.88 billion in 2025 to USD 2.8 billion by 2035, thus growing at a CAGR of 11.1% during the forecast period 2026-2035. Polyurea is a chemical compound formed by the combination of diisocyanate and diamine. The polymerization mixture is similar to the polymerization of polyurethane and the resulting reaction is called "urea", thus referred to as polyurea. Polyurea technology is used to make extremely strong, fast-settling coatings by adjusting the properties of two reactive components.
The polyurea coatings market is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period, due to its durability, smooth surface finish, chemical and abrasion resistance, favourable adhesion strength, fast-curing ability, and ability to withstand extreme weather conditions i.e., high humidity and low temperatures. Due to its elasticity and toughness, it is one of the most corrosion-resistant coatings. These coatings are suitable for various industries and objects, such as pipes, mining, machinery, secondary containment, transportation vehicles, steel structures, roofs, swimming pools, concrete structures, etc.
Polyurea Coatings Market Segmentation
Insight by Type
Based on type, the polyurea coatings market is segmented into pure and hybrid. The pure polyurea segment is anticipated to be the largest segment during the forecast period as it plays an important role in ascertaining the properties of the final coated surface. It has zero VC content and is used in various applications such as including roof coats, floor coats, bonded area, etc., owing to its excellent performance properties i.e., fast curing time, long service life, outstanding chemical resistance, and moisture resistance.
Insight by Technology
Based on technology, the polyurea coatings market is classified into spraying, pouring, and hand mixing. The spraying technology is anticipated to witness the largest share in the polyurea coatings market owing to its portability, lightweight equipment and ability to be applied quickly and accurately on the surface. Factors for the growth of this segment are the infrastructural growth in various countries along with increased use of applications in floor coatings, roof coatings, bed linings, secondary containment, and wastewater treatments.
Insight by Application
Based on application, the polyurea coatings market is categorized into building and construction, transportation, industrial, landscape, and others. Among all these segments, building & construction hold a substantial share in 2020 and are used for residential and commercial applications, thus having a positive impact on demand during the forecast period. Polyurea coatings can be used on various substrates such as concrete, metal, and wood in various temperature and humidity environments, and are optimal for use in waterproofing, corrosion control, immersion, and coating applications. Along with that, the transportation category is anticipated to project the fastest growth during the forecast period, owing to its use in boats, helicopters, freighters, ships, and trains due to its corrosion control, blast resistance, and non-skid and ballistic mitigation properties.
Insight by Raw Material
Based on raw material, the polyurea coatings market is segmented into aromatic isocyanate and aliphatic isocyanate. The aromatic isocyanate segment is anticipated to have the largest share during the forecast period owing to its good physical properties, easy process-ability, and abrasion and corrosion resistance in coating applications for marine, construction, and other industries. These are not colour-stable when exposed to UV light. The aliphatic isocyanate is also expected to have the fastest growth during the forecast period owing to rapid technological development and superior physical properties in comparison to the aromatic isocyanate segment. They have high demand in various applications such as wind energy, transportation, and mining industries, thus driving the growth of the aliphatic isocyanate segment.
