Key Market Trends

Reversible Type to dominate the Market

  • Reversible thermochromic pigments are extensively popular for their reversible color-changing property and are used for aesthetics in decorative products.
  • There are generally 2 types of reversible thermochromic pigments:
  • Heat-activated - These change from a colored state at room temperature to a translucent colorless state when heated, and can reveal messages or pictures beneath. They revert back to their colored state on cooling
  • Cold Activated - These are colorless at room temperature and become colored or reveal a message when chilled, becoming colorless again when warmed.
  • The reversible thermochromic pigment has a higher cost in comparison with irreversible thermochromic pigment and is the leading market used in thermochromic pigment in terms of value.

China to Dominate the Asia-Pacific Region

  • China is likely to grow at a high rate in the coming years, owing to growing awareness and advancement in the application of thermochromic pigments in the textile industry, paints, and coatings among others.
  • The textile industry in China is also booming with increasing investments and governmental support from the13th five year plan.
  • China is the leading producer of paints and coatings, globally. It currently produces more than half of the Asia-Pacific coatings and is the home to more than 10,000 paint companies, among which local producers occupy more than half of the domestic paint market share.
  • Furthermore, China is home to more than half of the world's electronics manufacturers. Thus, appliances using thermochromic pigments, making appliances more user and environmentally friendly, are witnessing increased demand.
  • The country stands to be the world's largest manufacturing economy and owing to this, the country's packaging requirement is huge.
  • All the aforementioned factors are expected to increase the demand for the market over the forecast period.
