Some paints are considered "smart" and can help purify the air or regulate the internal temperature of a building. Each of these segments meets specific needs that can be summarized in three pillars: level of protection, aesthetics and durability. The global painting market is an integral part of the construction sector. This market is strongly influenced by environmental regulations and various decorative trends. The coatings and paints market, on which the global painting market is based, is expected to register a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.4% during the period 2021-2027. In Germany, the painting market is growing (at a CAGR of 2 to 3.5%, depending on the estimate). Silicate-based mineral paints are most commonly used, as they are known for their water vapor permeability and mold resistance. In addition, German consumers tend to have a preference for neutral and natural colors. Finally, Germany is a leader in reducing volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions , which favors the use of low-VOC paints or simply VOC-free, locally produced paints.
