Rising demand for epoxy stealth coatings
Get more details on this report - Request Free Sample PDF
Epoxy stealth coatings is projected to dominate the global stealth coating market and hold over 45% demand share in 2026 owing to their increasing applications in the aerospace industry and vehicles. These coatings offer several properties including durability, strength, and chemical resistance. Additionally, epoxy stealth coatings are more durable and have a very high heat deflection temperature.
These coatings provide a scratch and impact-resistant finish than any other stealth coatings. They also provide a high level of UV & water resistance and are easy to clean. Furthermore, polyurethane stealth coatings are expected to grow substantially in the coming years with surging applications in phone screens and cars.

The aerospace & defense segment dominated the overall industry and generated revenue of over USD 235 million in 2019. Stealth technology plays a vital role in next-generation military assets such as aircraft, weapon systems, submarines, ships, ground vehicles, and personnel. Stealth coatings make missiles, drones, planes, and other aircraft partially invisible to radar.
The increasing aircraft demand along with technological innovations is further anticipated to boost the overall stealth coating market growth. However, the Boeing Market Outlook (BMO) 2020 projects that the commercial aviation and services markets will face significant challenges due to the pandemic, while the global defense services market will remain stable.
Furthermore, rising applications of stealth coatings in cars for UV protection and protection from chips, scratches, road debris, & malicious damages are further projected to propel the industry growth. Increasing smartphone production across the globe is also expected to spur the demand for stealth coatings. Additionally, newer applications of stealth coatings in foods and drugs are anticipated to offer new growth opportunities to the global stealth coating market.
