Paint Rollers Market Analysis

The knitted rollers segment dominated the market with around 60% of the paint rollers market share in 2021. Knitted rollers are likely to hold more paint, thus enabling faster coverage. However, they are highly susceptible to shedding, leaving an unappealing lint on the painted surface. The lint can be spotted easily in a sheen with higher finishes. To avoid this, woven shed-resistant covers are favored for gloss & semi-gloss finishes. The protection against shedding is achieved by a fine blend of woven fabrics. On smooth, semi-smooth, and semi-rough surfaces, these fabrics deliver a lint-free finish. Woven fabric is designed for maximum pick-up and release of the paint.
 

Although a variety of materials are used for the production of paint rollers, they are mostly manufactured using specially designed synthetic fabrics and can fulfill any kind of application & quality requirements.
 

Rollers with synthetic materials are the most frequently used category in the woven & knitted fabric categories. The synthetic paint rollers market is expected to register 5.8% gains through 2028. However, depending upon the design, such as low & high-end models, the quality can vary. Micro-fiber rollers are relatively new in the market are specifically used for higher sheen finishes. They have a smooth spray-like and lint-free finish that hold more paint.
 

Polyester rollers are economical, versatile, and well-suited for “DIY” applications, especially on smooth & mildly rough surfaces. They have a good resistance to wear & tear and a limited absorption capability. Thus, they are utilized as disposable rollers for spreading resins and other applications where finishes are of less significance such as industrial flooring.
 

High pile paint rollers market accounted for more than 35.5% of the revenue share in 2021. Denser pile enables additional emulsion holding ability, enhancing the demand. Sheepskin or lamb wool covers are highly dense and extra-long holding & absorbing in larger amounts. Growing demand from the construction and appliances industries will further drive the industry statistics.
 

The construction application captured nearly 82% of the paint rollers market share in 2021. The applications of paint rollers include residential & commercial construction sectors, which require painting interior and exterior extensively for aesthetic & safety purposes. The current trend for improvisation of commercial places, offices, and homes is likely to augment paint demand, which in turn, is spurring the demand for paint rollers.
 

Commercial construction has saw rapid growth owing to the rapid commercialization of developing economies and the subsequent mandate for operational spaces. Thus, the thrust on real estate construction is anticipated to sustain.
 

Asia Pacific paint rollers market is forecast to observe growth rate of more than 6.6% through 2028. The main economies contributing to the growth in this region include China, India, and Japan. Firstly, the availability of a highly skilled & low-cost workforce enables these countries to retail their products in the international market at very competitive prices. Secondly, the expanding real estate & hospitality sectors coupled with an increasing disposable income of people living specifically in urban areas has propelled the market revenue. Parallelly, leading players have started shifting their manufacturing core to China. Several domestic companies have also started investing in China to gain a competitive edge.
