COVID-19 Pandemic to Offer Opportunity for the Global Aerospace Antimicrobial Coatings Market

Published: Dec 2020

The global aerospace antimicrobial coatings market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period. COVID-19 pandemic is leading to increasing demand for antimicrobial coatings in aircraft. The pandemic has increased the demand for cleanliness and hygiene solutions, stimulating interest in antimicrobial coatings in aircraft. For instance, in August 2020, American Airlines declared that it is testing a novel antimicrobial protective coating that can make the COVID-19 inactive on aircraft surfaces for up to 7 days. SurfaceWise2 is an odorless, transparent protectant developed by Allied BioScience, which is engaged in the development of antimicrobial coatings for use in public spaces.

Recent Strategic Initiatives in the Global Aerospace Antimicrobial Coatings Market

  • In August 2020, Aereos, Inc., declared the first built-in antimicrobial high-touch components for aircraft interior cabins and lavatories. Such antimicrobial components offer longer protection against harmful microbes. In response to the COVID-19, the company is also adding a range of antimicrobial coating solutions for the prevention of harmful microbes from transmitting on high-touch surfaces including arm caps and galley cart handles. 
  • In April 2020, Mankiewicz launched ALEXIT FST BioProtect. It is a topcoat based on silver technology to kill bacteria on surfaces painted with it. Its effect is based on Silver ions and is highly reactive and they disrupt crucial processes in the bacterial cells, eventually kills those bacteria. As it is silver top-coated, ALEXIT FST BioProtect protects the painted surfaces for a longer duration without renewal.
