Global Antimicrobial Coatings Market to Reach US$ 8.4 Billion by 2028, Accelerated by Increasing Awareness Regarding the Importance of Maintaining Hygiene

As per the latest report by IMARC Group, titled "Antimicrobial Coatings Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028," the global antimicrobial coatings market size reached US$ 4.6 Billion in 2022. Antimicrobial coatings inhibit the growth and spread of microorganisms on various surfaces, thereby reducing the risk of infections. They are typically created by incorporating specific active agents into the coating formulation, which exhibit antimicrobial properties. These active agents can be classified into different categories, such as silver-based, copper-based, organic compounds, or nanoparticles like zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. One of their key advantages is their ability to provide long-lasting protection against bacteria, fungi, viruses, and other microbes. They create a hostile environment for microorganisms by releasing antimicrobial agents, disrupting their cell membranes, inhibiting their reproduction, and interfering with their metabolic processes. Antimicrobial coatings are employed to maintain cleaner and healthier surfaces in various settings, including healthcare facilities, food processing plants, public transportation, and consumer products like household appliances. When compared to traditional disinfectants or cleaning methods, antimicrobial coatings offer  a continuous and durable antimicrobial effect. They can withstand regular cleaning and have a prolonged lifespan, making them more cost-effective in the long run. Moreover, these coatings can be applied to a wide range of surfaces, including metals, plastics, textiles, and ceramics, ensuring comprehensive protection throughout different environments.
