Solvent-borne coatings retain 44% market share despite low-VOC mandates

Aerospace Coatings Market 2025 to 2032: Low-VOC Transition, MRO Backlogs and the Reformulation Race →
What Changed

Solvent-borne systems continue to represent approximately 44% of total market share due to rigid OEM flight-certification standards and established MRO application protocols. Major suppliers like PPG, AkzoNobel, and Sherwin-Williams are accelerating chrome-free and low-VOC reformulations, but certification bottlenecks prolong the transition. MRO providers currently account for 58% of global coating consumption.
