However, the market situation is expected to recover in 2021 as lockdown has been lifted in several countries worldwide.

  • Over the short term, a major factor driving the growth of the market studied is PETA regulations limiting the usage of natural leather.
  • By application, the automotive industry dominates the market during the forecast timeline.
  • Asia-Pacific is expected to dominate the market and witness the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Coating Agents for Synthetic Leather Market Trends

This section covers the major market trends shaping the Coating Agents For Synthetic Leather Market according to our research experts:

Automotive Industry to Dominate the Market

  • The use of coating agents in synthetic leather results in a lightweight and highly durable material while providing superior hydrolysis resistance, moisture heat resistance, and chemical resistance. It is used in various interior automotive applications, such as steering, wheels, and seats.
  • The use of synthetic leather makes car seats more comfortable, and its highly abrasion-resistant property helps manufacturers meet the stringent volatile organic compound (VOC) standards for applications such as car seats and furniture.
  • The BASF synthetic leather product portfolio includes Haptex, a polyurethane (PU) system solution for the production of synthetic leather.
  • Suzhou Ruigao New Material Co. Ltd, a leading manufacturer of synthetic leather, adopted the product of BASF SE, Elastollan-grade B50A12CF made of thermoplastic polyurethane, in the production of synthetic leather in a Chinese automaker's latest model due to its cost-effective and environment-friendly thermoplastic process in comparison with conventional processing technologies such as coagulation.
  • However, the recent decline in the automotive industry had a negative effect on the market. The automobile industry witnessed a rapid decline in 2019 after experiencing continuous growth for 10 years. According to the OICA, the automobile industry registered a negative growth of 5% in 2019, and the production declined from 95.63 million units produced in 2018 to only 91.78 million units in 2019.
  • After a bleak 2019, where the global automotive sales decreased by 6%, the world automotive production faced a new and unprecedented challenge during 2020. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic impacted the automobile sector, with lockdowns implemented across all countries, which resulted in an automotive production halt.
  • In 2020, the production of automotive saw a decline of 16%, reaching 77.62 million units compared to 91.79 million units in 2019. However, it is expected to take few quarters for the industry to reach at least the pre-COVID levels of automotive consumption. At the same time, the production follows with a delay, owing to accumulated inventories.
  • The industry is also facing crash crunch issues. These factors are likely to have an adverse impact on the demand for the market studied in the early part of the forecast period. However, synthetic leather is expected to replace traditional leathers used in vehicle seats and other interior components of the vehicle over the coming years.
  • Such a scenario will push the demand for coating agents from the studied market in the forecasted period.
