Middle East and Africa Chemical Surface Treatment Market Scope and Segmentation  

Market Definition

Chemical surface treatment involves altering the metal's surface using chemicals. Usually, this surface treatment is used as a pre-treatment for additional finishing techniques such as powder coating or anodizing. Pickling, chromatin/phosphating, and chemical polishing are chemical surface treatments. Aluminum corrosion is reduced by chemical treatment. Fragile chemical conversion layers distinguish all chemical processes. The layers' thicknesses typically range from 0.01 to 1.25 meters. Therefore, these layers are unsuitable for outdoor corrosion protection unless post-treatments are carried out. They work well as an undercoat for paints, aluminum, and zinc coatings.

Middle East and Africa Chemical Surface Treatment Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Increased use of chemical surfaces in numerous end-use industries

The global chemical surface treatment market share is increasing as chemical surface treatment is used more frequently in numerous end-use industries, including packaging, transportation, industrial machinery, and construction. The market for chemical surface treatment products will grow as industrial machinery demand rises, which will benefit chemical surface treatment products. The market for chemical surface treatment is likely to be driven by rising auto demand and an increase in infrastructure projects across various emerging economies. The market is experiencing growth due to the numerous advantages of chemical surface treatment, including electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and chemical resistance.

• Using new technologies can reduce environmental effects that stimulate market growth

The market share for surface treatment chemicals is the creation of cutting-edge technologies to lessen the environmental impact of traditional automobile surface treatment processes. The introduction of environmentally friendly pre-coating chemical conversion treatment agents for auto bodies by several paint manufacturers in recent years may help reduce the production of hazardous materials and industrial waste. Increasing residential construction and high spending on home improvement projects will also fuel the need for surface treatment, enabling concrete surfaces to achieve the desired durability.

Opportunities

• Expansion of industrialization boosts the demand in the market

Additionally, the market for chemical surface treatments will experience faster growth due to the rapid expansion of industrialization. Additionally, the market participants will have lucrative opportunities during the forecast period with developments in heavy machinery.  Demand from Middle Eastern industrial and residential infrastructures is the leading factor fueling the expansion of the market under study. Metals that are strong and resistant to wear are also used in building and construction sector for interior surfaces in residential and commercial structures.

• Government programs have produced opportunities for the market to expand

The numerous initiatives of governments of various regions to entice investments from multiple companies will also contribute to the continued expansion of the chemical surface treatment market in the coming years. The South African government is putting in place several support programs, including the i12 financial assistance and incentive program, to entice foreign investment, which can subsequently improve the nation's industrial sector in the years to come. The South African government revealed plans to boost the economy with USD 45.3 billion for infrastructure development in the budget for 2021. This money will be used to advance infrastructure in energy, agriculture, transportation, housing, water and sanitation, and digital infrastructure, increasing demand for equipment and machinery and, by extension, lubricants.

Restraints/Challenges

• Stringent Regulations

The market for chemical surface treatment will face difficulties through the stringent government regulations regarding higher levels of volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions during the process. Lowering emissions of dangerous chemicals during production, preventing the release of new, unsafe chemicals onto the market, creating standardized procedures for safety testing, ensuring test quality to avoid duplicative testing, and preventing non-tariff trade barriers. However, more work is required.

• Increased Operational Costs

Additionally, it is thought that a barrier to the market for chemical surface treatment will be the high consumption of chemicals caused by low-quality increases in operating costs. As a result, this will hinder the market growth rate for chemical surface treatments.
