Today I would love to share you an idea of some trending topics and innovations in the world of marking paint and coatings:
- Eco-Friendly Paints: As sustainability becomes a growing concern, there’s been a rise in low-VOC (volatile organic compound) and zero-VOC paints. These are being developed not only for interior use but also in exterior applications, helping to reduce air pollution and improve indoor air quality.
- Smart Paints: There’s a lot of buzz around “smart” paints that can change color based on temperature or light. Some are even self-healing, meaning they can repair minor scratches and wear over time. These materials are getting more attention from the tech and design worlds for their potential in both residential and industrial applications.
- Paints for Art and Technology: In the art world, artists and designers are experimenting with new paint types, like glow-in-the-dark or thermochromic paints. These create unique experiences for art viewers by changing in response to their environment.
- Color Trends for 2025: Leading paint companies like Pantone, Benjamin Moore, and Sherwin-Williams have released their color predictions for the upcoming year. For instance, Pantone’s “Color of the Year” for 2024 was a vibrant shade of red called “Fiery Red,” which is influencing both interior and exterior design trends.
- Paint and Health: There’s a growing trend of “healthy” paints that are not only eco-friendly but also have additional benefits like antimicrobial properties. These are being used in hospitals, schools, and public spaces where hygiene is a priority.
