The increasing number of fire accidents, which result in injuries, loss of life, and damage to property, has led to the implementation of various codes, regulations, and standards for fire safety and fire protection. In this regard, Europe and North America have the highest number of safety codes and regulations as compared to other regions.In the US, the International Code Council (ICC) and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) had recommended several standards and norms pertaining to fire safety and protection in buildings, infrastructure, and industrial sector.

In the UK and Germany, under British standard 476 and ETA & DIN 4102 standard, several regulations were imposed related to fire safety and standard in building construction steelwork.
In Russia, Federal Law No. 123-03 and GOST R 53295-2009 were imposed in July 2008, wherein technical regulation related to fire safety in building and construction activities was mandated to ensure safety and protection from fire accidents.

The implementation of stringent regulations and norms is driving the demand for fire-resistant coatings, as newly constructed buildings and processing plants need to meet the required safety and fire resistance standards. Considering the growth opportunities, market players are focusing on developing new and innovative products that comply with the stringent safety and fire protection standards.

Thus, as a preventive measure, governments, builders, and construction industries are using fire-resistant coatings to ensure the utmost safety at housing, commercial, institutional, and industrial places. These factors are thereby supporting market growth.

Europe projected to account for the largest share of the fire-resistant coatings market during the forecast period.

Europe accounted for the largest share of the global fire-resistant coatings market in 2019. The growth of the fire-resistant coatings market in this region is mainly attributed to stringent government regulations, an industrial initiative for sustainable development, and a strong emphasis on protection against fire. Moreover, the practice of constructing green buildings and adopting green coatings offers many opportunities for the growth of the market in the region. The European market is mainly dominated by the EU-5 countries, especially Germany and the UK.

The leading players in the fire-resistant coatings market include AkzoNobel (Netherlands), PPG (US), Jotun (Norway), Sherwin-Williams (US), and Hempel (Denmark). The key industry players are adopting strategies to expand their presence and enhance their product portfolio through investments in R&D. For example, in 2017, Hempel invested in an R&D center solely for fire-resistant coatings in Spain. This expansion will help the company comply with the ever-changing demand from the construction industry and develop high efficacy products.
