Global Anti-Corrosion Coatings for Thermal Power Market Growth 2026-2032
Description
The global Anti-Corrosion Coatings for Thermal Power market size is predicted to grow from US$ 9516 million in 2025 to US$ 11692 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.3% from 2026 to 2032.
Anti-corrosion coatings for thermal power plants are protective layers (like epoxy, polyurethane, or thermal spray) applied to metal components to shield them from extreme heat, moisture, and corrosive agents, preventing rust, improving equipment lifespan (turbines, boilers, pipes), and boosting energy efficiency by allowing higher operating temperatures and reducing heat loss, essential for modern, efficient power generation. These coatings create barriers or provide sacrificial protection, significantly cutting maintenance costs and enhancing performance in harsh environments. In 2025, global Anti-Corrosion Coatings for Thermal Power production reached approximately 1141 K MT, with an average global market price of around US$ 8526 per MT.
Anti-corrosion coatings for thermal power plants (coal, gas, oil, biomass, waste-to-energy) are driven by the harsh mix of heat, moisture, chemicals, and cyclic operation that attacks steel and concrete across the site. High-humidity zones (cooling towers, circulating-water systems, intake/outfall structures), high-condensation areas (ductwork, stacks, air preheaters), and outdoor steel (pipe racks, conveyors, structural members) all face continuous corrosion pressure. Owners use coatings because they’re one of the most cost-effective ways to extend asset life, prevent leaks/steel loss, and keep equipment within design thickness over multi-decade operating horizons.
A major demand engine is maintenance and outage economics. Planned outages are short and expensive, so plants prioritize coating systems that install fast and last longer—high-build epoxies, zinc-rich primers for sacrificial protection, durable topcoats for UV/weathering, and specialized linings in wet or chemically aggressive service. Where plants have FGD (flue gas desulfurization), SCR, or other emissions controls, corrosion risks often rise in specific areas (acidic condensates, slurry exposure, chlorides), driving the use of more chemically resistant materials (e.g., epoxy novolac/phenolic systems, glass-flake reinforced linings, vinyl ester in select cases) and stricter QA/QC to avoid early failure and rework.
The ongoing shift in many grids toward flexible, cycling operation is another key driver. More starts/stops and load-following increase thermal gradients and condensation events, which accelerates under-film corrosion and makes “edge protection,” surface-tolerant primers, and better stripe-coat practices more valuable. Retrofitting and life-extension programs also sustain demand: repowering, boiler/duct replacements, cooling system upgrades, and life-extension inspections commonly trigger recoating scopes. In coastal or polluted industrial regions, high chloride deposition and acidic atmospheres further elevate coating consumption and push plants toward higher-performance specifications and longer-warranty systems.
Gross profit margins in this segment are generally moderate: many mainstream power-plant anti-corrosion systems land around mid-teens to low-30s gross margin depending on competition.
