One of the primary causes of the increased demand for wood paints and coatings is the expansion of the furniture sector. Additionally, the global growth of the furniture sector has been aided by greater disposable income and a higher standard of living. Over the course of the projected period, rising tourism in various nations is anticipated to propel expenditures in the hotel and tourism infrastructure and support market expansion for wood paints & coatings. For instance, in Croatia, the tourist sector is estimated to contribute 20% of the country's GDP in 2019. The hotel industry accounted for 60% to 70% of the economy in 2019 and the tourism industry for about US$ 14.31 billion. According to estimates, the global market for wood paints & coatings will develop as a result of the expanding hotel and tourism sectors. The hotels and restaurants are refurbishing the existing wooden flooring and furniture to greatly increase capacity in response to the increase in tourist traffic. According to estimates, Croatia's market for wood paints and coatings will rise soon due to consumers' increasing willingness to spend on outdoor furniture, hardwood floors, and decks.
According to Coherent Market Insights, by the end of 2027, the market for Wood Paints And Coatings is anticipated to generate more than US$12,342.11 million in sales, with a CAGR of 5.9% from 2021 to 2027.
