The Future of High-performance Pigments to 2027

By 2027 the high-performance pigments market will be worth $8.60 billion. This report looks at the technological innovations driving developments in the high-performance pigment industry, including nano-pigment technology, smart pigments, bio-based and natural pigments.

Table of Contents Key Facts and Figures
High-performance pigments are those that provide an extra level of performance to the end-product in which they are formulated; be it excellent exterior durability and colour fastness, thermal stability or heat resistance, special decorative effects, or interactivity with the environment. These pigments include organic and inorganic colour pigments, metallic and pearlescent pigments, as well as interactive pigments such as fluorescents, thermochromic or photochromic.

Innovations in high-performance pigments technologies are producing new pigments that are easier to use to reduce customer production costs. Increased functionality of pigments can provide additional benefits, such as the use of infrared-reflective coloured pigments in coatings for roofs and architectural components to improve building energy efficiency. 

The global high-performance pigments market is 241,344 tonnes in 2022 and is expected to reach 274,759 tonnes in 2027, a growth rate of 2.6%. By 2027 the high-performance pigments market will be worth $8.60 billion. Organic high-performance pigments accounted for a market of 38,551 tonnes in 2022 with a value of $2.18 billion. Inorganic pigment demand in 2022 was 52,422 tonnes with a value of $1.94 billion.
