Description
Facade paint market Germany: dispersion paint in million litres and forecast to 2031
How is the facade paint market in Germany developing? The dataset covers its largest type: demand for dispersion facade paint including acrylic paints in million litres for every quarter from Q1/2021 to Q4/2031 – as historical market data and forecast.
Dispersion facade paints, acrylics included, are the price-led, DIY-friendly exterior option, with very high hiding power (class 1) and the best spreading rate, typically two coats on textured render. Niche products such as lime paints, concrete or wood facade coatings are assigned to the closest type. Renders, primers and water repellents are excluded; with the silicone resin and silicate datasets, the split by binder is complete.
Dispersion paint is the structural loser among facade paints: silicone resin and silicate systems gradually displace it, and the share loss is permanent. A renovation boom during the Covid-19 pandemic supported demand, in the downturn repainting was postponed disproportionately, and demand then stabilises at a lower level. Domestic output fell faster than domestic demand, as exports and reclassifications play a role. Most painting is on existing rendered houses; new buildings often get through-coloured render, brick, timber, rainscreen, metal or glass.
Which questions about the facade paint market does the dataset answer?
- How does demand for dispersion facade paint develop from 2021 to 2031, and when does it stabilise?
- How far did demand fall in the downturn after the renovation boom?
- How much comes from repainting existing buildings and how much from new build?
- What weight do homes carry compared with non-residential buildings?
Who is the dataset for?
Paint makers use the series for plant utilisation and pricing, binder and raw material suppliers for sales planning. DIY stores, merchants and painters align purchasing; together with the silicone resin and silicate datasets, analysts quantify substitution between paint types.
Data basis and methodology
Included are the total market and the split by new build and renovation and by residential and non-residential. Volumes are modelled from building completions, building permits and renovation activity, combined with the paintable share of rendered facades per segment, the annual repainting rate, the dispersion share per segment and litres per square metre. Official statistics, industry association figures and internal data served as benchmarks.
Delivered as CSV and Excel files, each in German and English, with 44 quarterly values. Related datasets: Silicone resin facade paint, Mineral exterior render (lime-cement), External thermal insulation composite system (ETICS) with mineral wool and all data on facades.
