Asia Pacific and the Middle East is expected to remain a key driving factor for
the global market.
The shift in
trend towards reducing VOC emissions and growing awareness regarding
sustainability is also a vital determinant for the market growth. Developed
markets are anticipated to face obstacles in the form of stringent regulatory
norms, hampering market growth over the forecast period.
