The global antimicrobial coatings market size was estimated at USD 11.39 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.9% from 2024 to 2030. 

Growing concern regarding cleanliness in various professional industries has led to the rapid development of this industry. These are used to protect surfaces against micro-organisms, which primarily include parasites, germs, bacteria, and unwanted micro-organisms. However, the segment is expected to grow at a higher rate than the sanitary facilities, kitchen, and air conditioning and ventilation systems application segment. Rising concerns regarding Hospital-acquired Infections (HAIs) are also boosting the overall industry growth. Doctors prefer antimicrobial coatings over disinfectants and cleaning agents.

This would also help reduce both cost and time for the hospitals in which they are prominently used. They help in curbing the spread of germs, which can otherwise cause weakened immune systems among people. Nevertheless, health concerns related to silver usage in various applications along with strict regulations in the European Union and the U.S. are presumed to create a hindrance to the overall demand.

In the recent past, the antibiotic application directly on the local surface is considered more efficient as compared to the antibiotics penetration through biofilm. The bacteria are killed instantly before the biofilm is formed. These antibiotics can be applied in bone cement that is used to fix implants associated with orthopedic and orthodontic implants.
