The global coating equipment market continues to grow, with intelligence and greenness becoming the mainstream trends.

According to the latest report titled "Global Painting Equipment Market Report 2026" released by an industry research institution, the global painting equipment market is experiencing a strong growth trend. It is projected to increase from 24.9 billion US dollars in 2025 to 27.15 billion US dollars in 2026, with an annual growth rate of 9.0%. By 2030, the market size is expected to reach 37.86 billion US dollars, with an average annual compound growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7%. The report indicates that the growth of the painting equipment market is mainly attributed to the continuous expansion of the automotive manufacturing industry, the increase in industrial machinery production, the widespread application of protective coatings, and the popularization of automated painting equipment. Among them, the rapid growth in demand for new energy vehicles (EVs) has become an important driving force for the painting equipment market. — Electric vehicles do not rely solely on internal combustion engines; instead, they are either fully or partially driven by electric motors. This requires higher technical standards for high-performance coating processes. The coating equipment, by achieving precise, uniform and efficient coating of protective layers, provides crucial support for the manufacturing of electric vehicles, thereby enhancing product quality and production efficiency. From a regional perspective, the Asia-Pacific region, driven by rapid industrialization, the expansion of the automotive and construction industries, and the increasing popularity of electric vehicles, is expected to occupy 38.30% of the global market share by 2025, leading the growth of the global coating equipment market. Major enterprises such as NISSIN, KUKA, WAGNER, DURR, YASKAWA MOTECH, ABB, FANUC, etc. are actively investing in research and development to promote the automation and digitalization upgrade of coating equipment. Industry experts state that the main trends in the future coating equipment market include continuous improvement in the automation level of spraying lines, increasingly widespread application of powder coating systems, continuous breakthroughs in precision spraying technology, and growing emphasis on sustainable coating processes and environmental technologies in the market. With the deepening of Industry 4.0 and smart manufacturing, the coating equipment industry is accelerating its transformation and upgrading towards efficiency, intelligence, and greenness.
