(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Dublin, Oct. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Intumescent Coatings Market by Type (Thin-film and Thick-film), Substrate (Structural Steel & Cast Iron, Wood), Application Technique (Spray, Brush & Roller), End-use Industry (Building & Construction, Industrial, Aerospace), and Region - Global Forecast to 2030" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets's offering.
The intumescent coatings market is forecasted to grow from USD 1.13 billion in 2024 to USD 1.44 billion by 2030, reflecting a CAGR of 4.1%. Regulatory enhancements in fire safety and building codes, coupled with increasing investments in construction, are propelling this expansion. The growing need for sustainable, low-VOC solutions popularizes intumescent coatings within sectors like building construction, aerospace, and industrial markets.

Thin-Film-Based Intumescent Coatings Surge

Thin-film intumescent coatings predict the fastest growth due to their aesthetic appeal, lightweight attributes, and easy application, particularly on structural steel in architectural projects. These coatings enhance fire resistance without additional bulk, making them ideal for high-rise buildings and commercial complexes, driven by stringent fire safety mandates and urban infrastructure developments.

Structural Steel & Cast Iron Lead Substrate Growth

Steel and cast iron substrates are witnessing rapid growth in the market, spurred by their prominence in infrastructure, skyscrapers, industrial sites, and oil & gas facilities. These metals require fire-protective intumescent coatings to maintain structural integrity under high temperatures, highlighting a growing trend due to strict international fire safety standards.

Building & Construction End-Use Dominates Market

The building & construction sector commands the highest growth rate within the intumescent coatings market. Fire safety considerations are crucial in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings, driven by urbanization and large-scale infrastructure projects. This segment is fueled by stringent safety regulations, and insurance requirements tied to building acceptance, renovations, and retrofitting projects.

Preference for Spray Application Techniques

The spray application method dominates due to its efficiency in providing uniform thickness and a smooth finish over extensive areas. Its ability to deliver robust fire protection performance, alongside reduced labor and application costs, positions it as the preferred choice for contractors and end-users across construction, oil & gas, aerospace, and other industries.

The Middle East & Africa: A Rapidly Growing Market

The Middle East & Africa is projected as the second-fastest growing region, led by widespread infrastructure development and oil & gas sector expansion. High-rise buildings, commercial complexes, and industrial projects in countries like Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Qatar demand robust fire protection solutions. Strict building codes and safety regulations amplify the need for intumescent coatings, along with urban and housing projects in Africa.
