The India pearlescent pigment market is expected to reach USD 110.3 million by 2024, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Pearlescent or ‘pearl’ pigments are majorly processed into paints & coatings, plastics & printing inks with an aim to provide brilliant color effects & high luster onto various substrates. Such special effect pigments are increasingly being incorporated into various consumer goods to lend strong aesthetic appeal at a relatively low cost.
Regulatory intervention is driving the utilization of materials that minimize the stress & detrimental impact on non-renewable resources such as minerals & metal ores. The Central Pollution Control Board of India has stipulated regulations related to volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from pigments & related specialty chemicals, which has encouraged market growth as well.
The heterogeneity of customer needs has expanded tremendously, offering multinationals numerous opportunities, especially in emerging economies such as India, which are brimming with consumer disposable income.
Iron/ferric oxide mica was the dominant product segment, accounting for over 35% of the market volume in 2015. The product has a high refractive index, metallic luster, excellent hiding properties & weather resistance that makes it ideal for outdoor paints & coatings applications.
