Growth in Construction and Infrastructure Development
Mexico's rapid urbanization and rising public income levels have hugely increased construction activity throughout the nation. The construction industry, as a pillar of Mexico's economy, earned tremendous revenue in recent years, showcasing strong growth. According to the IMARC Group, the Mexico architectural, engineering, and construction (AEC) market size reached USD 124.8 Million in 2024, and is further expected to reach USD 284.8 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 8.60% during 2025-2033. This upsurge is especially seen in the hospitality industry, with big global hotel groups actively increasing their footprint, underpinned by Mexico's status as a top tourist destination in Latin America. The arrival of foreign tourists has also boosted demand for construction paints and protective coatings across different uses. Moreover, the government's emphasis on urban renewal schemes and infrastructure development has resulted in higher investments in residential and commercial construction, further fueling the demand for industrial paints and coatings. These trends highlight the pivotal role of the construction sector in determining the Mexico industrial paints & coatings market growth and development.
Transition Toward Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Coatings
Environmental sustainability has emerged as an important priority in Mexico's industrial paint and coating industry. Companies are increasingly formulating bio-based industrial coatings with outstanding protective properties with reduced environmental footprint. The trend is most noticeable in the architectural coating sector, where waterborne paint and low-VOC products are becoming more prominent. Implementation of green building norms and other incentives has provided an important boost to the development of waterborne coatings in Mexico. Recently, In April 2025, Arkema, AkzoNobel, and Omya teamed up to create a series of low-carbon alternatives for more eco-friendly decorative paints with at least a 30% lower carbon footprint (1) aimed at mass market use while ensuring performance comparable to current products. This initiative seeks to enhance experiments and attain a carbon reduction of up to 50% for decorative paints. Hence, awareness in consumers and corporate entities regarding environmental concerns related to conventional coatings has resulted in increasing demand for environmental-friendly alternatives. These trends mark a wider push in the industry towards aligning with international standards of sustainability as well as changing consumer preferences regarding environmentally friendly goods.
Technological Developments in Coating Solutions
Technological advancements are contributing significantly to the growth of Mexico's industrial paint and coatings industry. The advancement of functional coatings, including insulative paints for keeping indoor temperatures stable and antimicrobial coatings that provide additional protection in healthcare applications, is emerging. These technological developments not only improve the functionality and longevity of coatings but also address particular industry requirements and uses. In addition, the sector's landscape is being redefined through strategic investments and capacity additions by leading market participants. Firms are enhancing their presence through capacity additions and technological improvements to respond to changing market needs. Examples include investments in manufacturing capacity and the extension of operations to service increasing demand across different end-user segments as reflecting the sector's focus on innovation and responsiveness to market needs.
