    [China Epoxy Resin Industry Online] May 16, 2005: The development of foreign architectural coatings has gone through a long historical journey.
    Especially in developed countries, architectural coatings are the most used for interior and exterior wall decoration.
    At present, the world's total output of coatings is about 28 million tons, of which architectural coatings account for 40% to 50%, about 11-14 million tons.
    In industrially developed countries, architectural coatings are the largest consumption of coatings, accounting for about 50% of the total output of coatings.
    The annual output of architectural coatings in the United States has been maintained at about 2.
    7 million tons for the past ten years, accounting for 52% of coating output, of which water-emulsion coatings accounted for 75% and solvent-based coatings accounted for 25%.
    Architectural coatings in other developed countries account for 57% of total coatings in Italy, 55% in Germany, 55% in France, and 40% in Japan.
    In the United States, 45% of the exterior walls of buildings are decorated with paint.
    Japan is also a major paint producer in the world, and its output ranks third in the world.
    The annual output of architectural paint is about 1 million tons, accounting for about 40% of the total paint output.
    The per capita consumption of architectural coatings in the United States and other industrialized countries is more than 10 kg, while my country is still less than 1 kg.
    The gap is large, but it is reasonable compared with the gap in per capita industrial output value.

    Now take the United States as an example to make a brief introduction: The
    United States has a developed economy and many building decoration materials, but the interior walls rarely use expensive decoration materials, mostly building coatings.


    In terms of exterior wall decoration, architectural coatings account for more than 80%.
    For example, the exterior walls of buildings in Los Angeles are almost entirely painted with architectural coatings, and only a few high-rise buildings are decorated with aluminum-plastic panels.
