Such trends are showcasing an upward trend for the North America concrete sealer market over forecast time period.
However, stringent government regulations related to usage of solvent borne concrete sealers may hamper the North America concrete sealer market growth rate over the projected timeframe. Major government bodies such as US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Environment Canada, South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD), etc. have provided regulations for curbing the volatile organic compound (VoC) emission from the building and industrial maintenance coatings. Additionally, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic is also expected to limit the product growth in the region due to the downfall of construction sector in North America in 2020.
Concrete sealers market in North America, based on the product has been segregated into penetrating acrylics, epoxy, film-forming and others. Penetrating sealers are sub segmented into silicate, silliconate, silane and siloxane. The film-forming sealers collected the highest revenue share over 25% in 2019 among the other concrete sealers. Film-forming concrete sealers are generally used for indoor flooring applications.
These concrete sealers are the very durable, that makes them useful for sealing parking floors, driveway floors and any other high-traffic retail environments. These sealers can be a bit on the expensive side but are very popular for its use in residential concrete floors, even including the basements. During its use in indoor applications, water-based sealers proves to be the safest, as they don’t involve hazardous fumes from the VOCs.
Epoxy concrete sealers formulates an efficient protective coating on the concrete floors, resulting in an abrasion-resistant, long-wearing and hard finish. These sealers are expected to gain a revenue around USD 30 million by 2026. Most epoxy sealers are applied on surfaces to provide glossy finish. It also offers outstanding water repellency and are much stiffer than acrylics.
