Eco-Friendly Coatings Fuel Global Aluminum Powders and Pastes Market Boom

2025 / 11 / 18

Step 1: Understanding How Eco-Friendly Coatings Are Reshaping the Metallic Pigment Market

As global manufacturers actively seek sustainable solutions, eco-friendly coatings have become the fastest-growing segment in the metallic pigment market, directly driving demand for aluminum pigments.

Industry analysis shows that the global market for aluminum powder, aluminum paste, and aluminum flakes continues to grow, driven by low volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and water-based applications. Automotive, industrial coatings, plastics, and 3C electronics are the main drivers of this growth.

Eco-compliance, durability, and high reflectivity are now the top purchasing criteria among end-users.


Step 2: Why Aluminum Paste and Aluminum Powder Are Essential in Eco-Friendly Coatings

To understand the market boom, one must first understand the materials:

  • Aluminum Paste (AL Paste) is a metallic pigment slurry composed of fine aluminum flakes that provides strong opacity, high reflectivity, and brilliant metallic effects for coatings, inks, and plastics.


  • Aluminum Powder(AL Powder) is a fine metallic material made from aluminum, commonly used in coatings, inks, and plastics to provide metallic effects, improve thermal conductivity, and enhance chemical stability.



  • RoHS

  • REACH Regulation

  • ISO 14001 Environmental Management Systems

ZHANGQIU METALLIC PIGMENT is certified under ISO quality systems, providing dependable compliance for global customers.


Step 3: Market Trends Driving Product Demand

First, the trend toward Eco-Friendly Coatings is accelerating aluminum pigment usage in automotive refinishing and industrial anti-corrosion coatings.

Second, lightweight and energy-efficient consumer electronics rely on AL pigments to produce smooth, metallic visual effects.

Third, the push for sustainable construction materials—powder coatings, roof coatings, and thermal-insulation paints—continues to expand the aluminum pigment application landscape.

Example Market Indicator:
Industry reports indicate the metallic pigment sector is expanding steadily, with aluminum-based materials contributing the largest revenue share thanks to increasing adoption in water-borne and solvent-free formulations.
