Central and Eastern European paint industry
FOCUS will bring much promise to the paint and coatings industry in Brazil. Dr Terry Knowles, Business Manager at IRL and author of the report said: “Brazil is primed for growth as it enters 2005. An estimated 12 million houses are needed in Brazil, which will create demand for all parts of the building paints sector. Furthermore, infrastructure is being revitalised, the automotive sector is expected to turn the corner and the manufacturing industry has export fever, largely through government initiatives abroad. Large levels of investment are anticipated in the coatings sector and in many enduser industries, which creates a very propitious time for all involved in the Brazilian paint and coatings industry.” A Profile of the Brazilian Paint Industry has the following contents: 1 Introduction 2 Executive Summary 3 Background 4 The Brazilian Paint Industry 5 Brazilian Paint Production, Trade & Consumption 6 Brazilian Paint Market Data 7 End-User Industry Statistics 8 Market Forecast to 2009 9 Directory of Importers and Distributors of Raw Materials 10 Directory of Brazilian Paint Manufacturers A Profile of the Brazilian Paint Industry (115 pp and 69 tables), which includes a 29-page directory of paint companies in Brazil, is now available from IRL priced $3,000 for a single hard copy edition.

3,043,700 tonnes in 2004. Seven major markets account for over 80% of this demand, as seen below: Typical growth rates expected over the next five years include Russia – 7%/y, Poland – 6%/y, Turkey – 10%/y, Ukraine – 10%/y, Hungary – 5%/y, Czech Republic 4%/y and Uzbekistan – 2%/y. Average growth in paint demand across the whole region is therefore expected at about 7.4%/y, which is expected to take paint demand to 4,341,500 tonnes by 2009. The major growth markets are Russia, Turkey, the Czech Republic and the Ukraine, although appreciable growth can expected in smaller markets such as Armenia and Azerbaijan. Paint industries in Central and Eastern Europe are all at different stages in their growth and development now. The former planned economy of the USSR still has consequences for many; Russian paint production is dependent upon imports of raw materials for product diversification, while the virtual

absence of any chemical sector in some states means that demand for paint imports is high and domestic production is low. Russia is continuing on its growth path, aided by private investment and Turkey has pulled clear of the effects of economic collapse in 2000–2001. For others, EU enlargement offers much scope for industry through foreign direct investment and free trade, with some companies already planning fresh exports to the west. In many parts of Central and Eastern Europe there is a shortage of industrial coatings, which provide opportunities for imports and probable investment later on. The decorative coatings sector is strong in almost all countries, with vigorous competition characterising many markets as giants such as Tikkurila, RLKR, Empils, Meffert, Caparol, Sigma and Akzo Nobel turn up in several countries throughout the region. Technology-wise, these markets are now benefiting from more modern paint types, which is commensurate with the use of

FOCUS more modern building materials. Dr Terry Knowles, Business Manager at IRL and author of the report said; “Raw material demand is often fulfilled through imports from western Europe, although China is proving very competitive with supplies to Central and Eastern Europe. Western raw materials may be ahead in terms of quality but as long as markets are ruled by pricing decisions and low affordability, cheaper Chinese materials will remain acceptable to paintmakers in this region. Chinese suppliers will keep Western raw materials producers on their toes for some time yet! Although Central and Eastern Europe is a good opportunity for those rooted in the mature markets of the west, they will need to be careful not to be squeezed out of the raw material supply market in the future.” A Profile of the Central and Eastern European Paint Industry
