M2 - Tue Oct 14, 5:13AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/q5tz55/seed_coating) has announced the addition of the "Seed Coating Materials Market by Type, by Crop Type & By Geography - Global Trends & Forecasts to 2019 " report to their offering. The seed coating materials market is projected to reach $1,426.78 million by 2019, with a CAGR of 7.5% from 2014 to 2019 Seed coating materials play an important role in assisting seeds to tolerate abiotic stresses and physical damage until a suitable period for germination. These help in binding the active ingredients to the seed, provide a unique recognizable appearance, and protect from pest or rodent damage. There are three major types of seed coating materials, namely polymers, binders, and other additives which are utilized in different quantities and concentrations depending on the type of active agricultural ingredients. Agricultural active ingredients include pesticides, fertilizers, and other biological active agents which increase crop yield. The market demand for progressive multifunctional seed technologies to avert the decreasing acreage and to increase seed performance is one of the driving factors of the market. The restraining factor is the high cost involved for machinery and R&D used for identifying environment-friendly materials. However, adopting new technology for the manufacture of seed coating materials helps in cost reduction and reduces occupational risks. Polymers are the major contributors towards performance enhancement of coating materials. They also dominated the seed coating materials market followed by colorants and binders in 2014. North America and Europe are the top-two consumers of seed coating materials in the world. U.S. and France are key countries in North American and European regions, respectively and these countries are growing with CAGRs of 8.1% and 9.0% from 2014 to 2019. Some developing countries such as China, India, and Brazil are also growing at a rapid pace because of the rising domestic demand and industrialization.

Global Protective Coatings Market Outlook 2019 - Key Analysis of the $10 Billion Industry
M2 - Tue Sep 30, 8:19AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/v66vbw/protective) has announced the addition of the "Protective Coatings Market by Resin Type, by Technology & by Application- Global Trends & Forecast to 2019" report to their offering. The market size in terms of value of protective coatings was estimated to be $10,594.6 million in 2013, and is projected to grow with a CAGR of 9.75% from 2014 to 2019 The protective coatings market has a wide range of players ranging from small- and medium-sized companies to large players. Construction, oil & gas, automotive, aerospace, and product finishes are the major end-user industries for protective coatings showing high growth potential. Other end-user industries such as marine, wind turbines, chemical & fertilizer industry, and OEMs have not commercialized the use of protective coatings and are thus set to record a lower growth rate. Protective coatings are used to deliver high performance benefits in terms of corrosion protection, wear and tear, anti-fouling, fire protection, chemical attack, extreme weather conditions, hazardous industrial conditions, and so on. Due to these properties, there is a growing demand for protective coatings from both existing and emerging end-user industries thus driving the market. Also, the shift from solvent-based systems toward water-based systems has helped reduce the VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) emissions in the environment, thus creating increased demand for protective coatings. However, fluctuations in the cost of resins and lack of innovation in the industry are restraining the growth of the protective coatings market. Asia-Pacific is identified as the largest market as well as the highest growing in the next five years among all the regional markets. Europe and North America accounted for the second- and third-largest markets respectively for protective coatings consumption. The growing demand for protective coatings has prompted many companies to develop new and innovative products to capture the major share in different end-user industries. Thus, most of the companies are focused on new product development as their major growth strategy. The other growth opportunities such as capacity expansion, partnerships, investments, and acquisitions are also adopted for intensifying the penetration in the protective coatings market.
