Compulsory national standard is about to implement environmental protection floor coating to meet the huge market

Recently, the compulsory national standard "limit of harmful substances in indoor floor coating" was announced before approval Industry insiders believe that the implementation of the standard will continue to eliminate the production and use of solvent based floor coatings, and put forward restrictions on the content of volatile organic compounds and soluble heavy metals in the standard The supervision of relevant links will be stricter, which will force the industry to accelerate the development of environmental friendly floor coatings and accelerate the release of market space for green environmental protection coatings The increasing demand for environmental protection highlights the outstanding performance of indoor floor coating products, which are widely used in food, tobacco, pharmaceutical, electronic, medical and health industries, such as production and operation places, home, schools, shopping malls and other public places Annual production and sales are also increasing Shandong Pentium paint Co., Ltd is a professional manufacturer of floor coatings Gu Shigang, general manager of the company, said: "driven by the downstream demand, the global floor coating production also maintained a stable growth In 2015, the market scale of the global floor coating industry reached 19.45 billion US dollars With the increasing role of economic development in the home furnishing industry, prospective industry research institute predicts that the global floor paint market will reach US $23.58 billion by 2022 " The huge market demand also urges the coating enterprise to emerge rapidly According to incomplete statistics, at present, there are more than 5000 companies or manufacturers that produce, sell and construct epoxy floor coatings With the rapid development of the industry, its environmental protection issues have gradually attracted attention At present, the main indoor floor coating products are water-based floor coating, solvent-based floor coating and solvent-free floor coating, especially the solvent-based floor coating has a variety of harmful substances to the environment and human body, if not controlled, it will cause adverse effects Wang ningyong, sales manager of Beijing innovation century technology development Co., Ltd., said that although water-based and solvent-free coatings are more environmentally friendly than solvent-based coatings, solvent-based coatings account for a considerable proportion of floor coatings due to their advantages in technology, performance and other aspects At present, about 80% of floor coatings in China are solvent based The common solvent based floor coatings and high solid solvent based floor coatings dominate the market The price of floor coatings produced by many small-scale floor coatings enterprises is about 10 yuan per kilogram, which is cheap and widely used in various engineering construction In recent years, the elimination of pollution accelerated the industry reshuffle, and the state's tolerance of environmental pollution decreased As the focus of VOCs emissions, coatings were once pushed to the forefront of the wave A series of prevention and control measures followed, and the implementation of the standard also put a "tight curse" on the pollution emissions of floor coating industry "Big brands will become the mainstream of the market, low pollution, environmental protection coating is the development trend of floor paint." Gu Shigang said that many countries and regions, such as Japan, Europe and the United States, have started to prohibit the use of solvent-based epoxy floor coatings Water-based and solvent-free floor coatings will be the development direction of the paint market in the future, which has become the consensus of the paint industry All parties are promoting, guiding and promoting the application of water-based solvent-free floor coatings Zhang Gongmin, President of Shandong Flooring Association, believes that with the tightening of national environmental protection policies and the influence of higher crude oil market, the prices of raw materials for flooring have skyrocketed, competition has intensified and profits have been diluted The survival of the fittest in the market has brought unprecedented pressure to the whole industry How to break through the bottleneck and realize the green development has become a problem that must be considered in the coating industry Many coating companies have also said that from the current development situation, the water-based epoxy floor paint with energy conservation, environmental protection and low pollution is generally considered to eventually replace the traditional solvent floor paint, which is the inevitable direction of the future development of the floor paint industry The relevant persons of the standard preparation group also said that the formulation of the mandatory limit standard will promote the progress of indoor floor coating technology, guide the development of indoor floor coating to the direction of environmental protection and health, improve the technical level of indoor floor coating products, effectively regulate the market, and be conducive to the promotion and application of environmental protection products In 2018, the top ten brands of floor coating have been released Looking at this list, we can find that foreign brands, such as BASF in Germany, fermec in the United States, Sika in Switzerland, fuller in the United Kingdom, Haihong in Denmark, mabe in Italy, etc., account for half of the country According to statistics, the market share of these six foreign brands is about 78.8% This means that thousands of national floor paint enterprises in China are sharing less than 30% of the remaining market share It is worth mentioning that foreign enterprises are actively preparing for the market competition of environmental friendly floor coatings Fmkw398, a new type of water-based epoxy curing agent material, made its debut in Shanghai International floor exhibition and won the title of "the most concerned new technology product" in the exhibition Sika launched solventless epoxy coating, and fusile launched easy to clean water-based floor coating All these measures show the determination of building green enterprise of floor paint brand, which shows that foreign paint enterprises attach importance to environmental protection floor water-based paint Foreign investment is the first step, how should domestic coating enterprises deal with it? It is understood that the production bases of waterborne floor coating have been successively put into production by Carpoly and Pentium In particular, in the second half of 2018, the water-based floor coating enterprises took frequent actions With the development of environmental protection policy, more coating enterprises take advantage of this opportunity to actively develop and launch new products of environmental protection flooring, and strive to do a good job of seizing market share as soon as possible The reporter learned that since its establishment, Shandong Floor Coating Association has also actively organized enterprises to cooperate with universities and scientific research institutes, constantly innovate and develop, timely absorb advanced research and development achievements, and constantly increase R & D investment, long-term seek for partners of advanced technology and concept, focus on the R & D and development direction of high-tech green products, actively promote green products, and build enterprises Industry university research platform, establish the social responsibility image of Environmental Protection Association serving the society and green development of enterprises.
