“Bio-Based Resins and Low-VOC Formulations Drive Sustainable Coating Innovation”
- One prominent trend in the Green Coatings market is the increasing adoption of bio-based resins and low-VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) formulations driven by stricter environmental regulations and consumer demand for sustainable solutions
- Manufacturers are replacing conventional petrochemical-based raw materials with natural oils, starches, and plant-derived polymers to develop eco-friendly alternatives without compromising performance
- For instance, companies are commercializing coatings formulated with soybean oil or linseed oil-based alkyd resins that offer comparable durability while significantly reducing environmental impact.
- The shift toward circular economy principles and carbon neutrality commitments is encouraging R&D investment in green coating technologies across automotive, construction, and industrial sectors
