Global Surface Treatment Chemicals Market

Global Surface Treatment Chemicals Market - Analysis and Forecast, 2017-2023 

(Focus on Chemical Type, Base Material, Application Vertical and Region) 

The global surface treatment chemicals market is estimated to witness growth at a CAGR of 

7.8% over the period of 2017 to 2023. This growth in the market is attributed to the increasing 

demand from various end use application verticals such as automotive industry, general industry, 

coil industry, industrial machinery, aerospace industry etc. 

Surface treatment is the process in which the adhered surface of any base material like metal, 

plastic etc. is cleaned and/or chemically treated to promote better adhesion and enhance 

properties like improved appearance, wettability, solderability, corrosion resistance, tarnish 

resistance, chemical resistance, wear resistance, hardness and surface friction. Surface 

treatment is done to prevent or delay corrosion, make the material more durable and tough 

to bear extreme wear and tear and increase the surface energy level of a particular metal 

surface so that it can easily adhere to the printing or coating taking place. Surface treatment of 

metal plays an enormous role in extending the life of metals, such as in automotive bodies and 

construction materials, which makes the components durable to use for a longer period of time. 

Europe acquired the largest market share in the surface treatment chemicals market. However, 

APAC is identified as the fastest growing region, followed by Middle East & Africa and North 

America. APAC is expected to be the leading market by the end of 2023 owing to the increasing 

industrialization and widespread involvement of companies in APAC countries into manufacturing 

surface treatment chemicals. Moreover, the increasing application areas and end use industries 

in this region is also a factor driving the growth of the market here.
