Reports are published yearly covering various key trends and are available below:
Manufacturers Recognize Brand Loyalty of Painters
The paint market has remained fairly stable for years. This is remarkable, especially considering the use of plastic frames and other materials that do not require painting. At the same time, paint manufacturers are improving their products. Paint is becoming more colour stable and less sensitive to wear. Manufacturers also recognise that the painter is brand loyal, as they are not quick to switch away from their usual paint brands.
Painting Industry Sees Shift in Buying Habits Among Multi-Skilled Professionals
Professional painters have proven to be quite traditional. They like to go to their favourite specialist paint dealer or buy directly from manufacturers (via service centres). Multi-skilled professionals (doing several other jobs in addition to painting) are increasingly willing to buy at general wholesalers and DIY stores. These generalist shops have more and more specialised products in their range and are usually located in the vicinity of the painter and the construction site. At the same time, e-commerce is increasingly accepted in more traditional industries and businesses, including the paint industry.
