Market Scope

Market Research Future (MRFR) studied the global gelcoat market 2021 in the analysis period till 2027. As per MRFR study, the global gelcoat market is expected to rise at 7.6% CAGR during the forecast tenure. By 2027, the market of gelcoat market value is likely to touch USD 1.1 Bn.

Market Drivers and Restraints

The growing utility of gelcoat in fiber-reinforced plastics to offer better protective layers can benefit the gelcoat market in the approaching years. The aesthetic appeal offered by gelcoat due to its composition that contains pigment, resin, and filler, can favor the gelcoat market in the review tenure. The availability of different types of resins that are used in the formulation of gelcoat, such as; epoxy, polyester, and vinyl ester, is likely to prompt the growth of the gelcoat market in the years to come. The rise in awareness about unique characteristics and properties of gelcoat, such as; prevention against UV degradation and resistance against corrosion, blister crack, and water absorption, alongside offering glossy finish can prompt the gelcoat market in the years to come. In addition, the ease of applying gelcoat by both brush and spray to maintain appropriate thickness and can be laminated on composite material to prevent damage in diverse conditions can propel the gelcoat market in the years to come. The increasing demand for glass fiber reinforced plastics along several end-use industries and the rise in awareness about these light-weight characteristics can prompt the expansion of the global gelcoat market in the foreseeable future. The large-scale utility of gelcoats in the marine industry as ships and boats are often used for recreational solutions can add to the increasing demand for gelcoat that can support the market rise. On the contrary, the shift towards the closed molding process is likely to hamper the rise of the gelcoat market through the analysis tenure.
