Radiation Curable Coatings Market size was valued at around USD 7.5 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% between 2023 and 2032. Radiation-curable coatings cure almost instantly when exposed to UV or EB radiation. This rapid curing process leads to increased productivity as it eliminates the need for long drying times and allows for faster processing in manufacturing.
Radiation-curable coatings are generally solvent-free or have low VOC (volatile organic compound) content. This eco-friendly aspect aligns with the growing emphasis on sustainable and environmentally conscious products.

Not all substrates are suitable for radiation curing. Some materials may not adequately transmit UV or electron beam radiation, leading to incomplete or uneven curing. Developing radiation-curable formulations that meet specific performance requirements while maintaining stability, consistency, and low VOC content can be complex. Radiation-curable coatings require specialized equipment for curing, such as UV lamps or electron beam systems. Thus, the risks associated with radiation curable coatings may drive down the acceptance rate, further hampering the business growth.
