Rising construction and industrial coating demand underpin steady growth

Increasing use of coatings for construction, vehicle repainting, and industrial purposes continues to be among the topmost factors driving the growth in the alkyd resin industry, especially because of the fast-growing cities in developing nations such as India, China, and Indonesia, which leads to increased consumption of paints and consequently increased manufacturing of resins. Infrastructure spending by governments continues to contribute to this factor, especially where large-scale infrastructure projects help boost the industrial coatings market.

Market Segmentation

By Type

Short Oil Alkyds were leading the market with an estimated market share of about 48% in 2025, due to their cost-effectiveness and quick drying properties. Modified Alkyds are expected to be the fastest growing type of alkyds owing to growing demand for high-performance coatings used in automotive, marine, and speciality applications in combination with alkyds and acrylics, epoxy, or silicones.

By Process Type

The Fatty Acid Process was the largest in 2025, having about 60% of share in the market, due to being considered the oldest and cheapest method of resin production, and producing the most consistent resins on a worldwide scale. The fastest growing process category is the Glyceride Process, which produces the best performing alkyd resins suitable for speciality and industrial paints.

By Formulation Type

The High Solids Alkyds was the largest in 2025, having 50% of share in the market, due to containing less solvents, and thus being more environmentally friendly. The increasing tightening of regulations around VOC emissions will continue encouraging the use of high solids and water borne formulations.
