The automotive paints industry has not only adopted the advancements of the automotive industry but is also growing in line with automobile demand. Automotive paint is a multifaceted technology that has grown in terms of products, durability and color options offered to the customer. The industry started with simple natural pigments and varnishes. However, present day automobiles are coated with high tech polymer based coatings. Conventional coating application methods, such as air dry varnish, that were popular in the past have now been successfully replaced with new cost-effective technologies (namely, air gun, HVLP guns, etc.). At present, industry players are focusing on spray technologies with minimal wastage, environment friendly coatings (such as low Volatile Organic Compounds [VOC] waterborne paints, zero VOC powder coating, or futuristic UV coating), and a reduction in the number of required coating layers. Demand for vehicles is increasing at a promising rate, specifically for passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. According to the OICA (Organization Internationale des Contructeurs d' Automobiles), the global vehicle production in 2012 reached to 84.1 million units, of which 63.0 million units were passenger cars, light commercial vehicles accounted for 16.9 million, and heavy commercial vehicle production was 4.1 million units. Due to the increase in the vehicle production, automotive paints consumption also increased in 2012 and it is anticipated that the market for automotive paints will grow at a corresponding promising rate. This increase in the demand of automotive paints gives rise to concerns over the hazard caused by the VOCs present in the coatings. To withstand the existing and upcoming environmental regulations, automotive manufacturers from European and North American countries have shifted to low VOC products such as waterborne or powder coatings. Changes in environmental norms are expected to be applied in other regions as well, and the pace of the shift from solvent-borne to waterborne should follow suit in the Asia-Oceania region and other countries of South America, Africa and Russia. In addition to these factors, improved lifestyle, changing buyer's preferences, economic growth, and increasing vehicle fleets have increased the need for advanced automotive paints technology and more color options for the customers. As a result of aforesaid reasons and changing governmental environment regulations, advanced coating solutions are developed and provided by the automotive paints companies to the vehicle manufacturers.
