Sustainability to Drive Innovations in the Steel Pipe Coatings Market

Growing concerns about increasing greenhouse gas emissions in addition to intensifying governmental campaigns to ensure environmental protection is prompting manufacturers in the steel pipe coatings market to find eco-friendly and sustainable alternatives to the traditional materials. In addition, growing concerns regarding coatings polluting groundwater is capturing attention from regulatory authorities. Companies are increasingly working towards the development of sustainable and eco-friendly steel pipe coatings in order to comply with tightening regulations. Manufacturers are investing heavily in research and development of geopolymer which offers bright prospects of achieving the goal of sustainability. Developed using aluminosilicate particles, geopolymer’s superior chemical and physical properties make it a suitable candidate for use as steel pipe coatings. In addition, its hazardous waste capturing capability can make it a suitable prospect for use in steel pipe coatings that are used to transport drinking water. These developments are expected to aid companies in the steel pipe coatings market gain penetration in end-user industries.

Low Lifetime of Steel Pipe Coatings Continues to Pose a Daunting Challenge for Manufacturers

Generally, end-user industries install steel pipes when setting up manufacturing plants and expect them to remain functional for considerable periods of time. However, steel pipe coatings tend to erode over a period of time exposing the surface of steel pipes to corrosion and damage. This can substantially increase the risk of manufacturing plants suffering damage. Manufacturers are continuously working to overcome the challenge and are investing heavily in research and development of novel steel pipe coatings that can withstand harsh conditions.

Steel Pipe Coatings – Competitive Landscape

• Innovation in the development of steel pipe coatings for marine environment received a huge boost after new research introduced the concept of producing coatings to prevent biofouling activities. The research suggests using marine organism sensory interference principle for the development of coatings to prevent biofouling from sea barnacles and zebra mussels.
• A significant development addressing the burgeoning demand of high-performance steel pipe coatings to inhibit corrosion in oil and gas industries was the release of a study which suggested the use of composite coatings in steel pipelines used in the industry. The study suggested an increase in additives used in coatings aided in enhancing the surface hardness and wear resistance of steel pipelines.
• With the demand for treatment of damaged coatings on the rise, researchers released a new study highlighting the use of cathodic protection to decelerate corrosion of the exposed steel pipe while preventing damage to any surrounding coatings.

Some of the leading players operating in the steel pipe coatings market include SHAWCOR, LaBarge Coating, LB Foster, The Bayou Companies, MULHEIM Pipe Coatings, Southland Pipe, Sub-One Systems, and Kelly Pipe Co. LLC.
