The global special effect pigments market is projected to reach USD 969.2 million by 2022, at a CAGR of 5.3%, in terms of value. A major part of the growth is fueled by the increasing demand for differentiated and special appearance products. The demand for customized products with varied product differentiations and improved appearance is increasing with the growing spending power of end users. Products with striking effects with maximum shimmer and luster are preferred over conventional solid colors. Stringent environmental regulations regarding toxic metals is restraining the growth of global special effect pigments market. The Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of Chemical Substances (REACH) regulation imposes legal conformity of pigments in application areas, raw material safety evaluation as well as the environmental relevance of special effect pigments.
Pearlescent pigments are the fastest-growing type segment in the special effect pigments market
Pearlescent pigments are composed of synthetic mica platelets or artificial glass substrates along with coats of metal oxides. These are obtained by lining up individual plates that act as tiny mirrors. These pigments offer shine, superior whiteness, and coverage with extraordinary optical effects. The market for pearlescent pigments is estimated to grow on account of the high demand for effects such as fine-grained luster and silvery white sparkle which can be achieved using pearlescent pigments. These are widely used for various applications in the cosmetics industry such as skin-care, hair-care, eyeshadows, nail polish, and make-up.
