Pigment dispersions are dry pigments dispersed in a liquid. These dispersions are alternatively known as color concentrates, colorants, or pigment preparations. They are stabilized with the help of additives such as resins and surfactants to prevent the formation of lumps, or re-agglomeration. These dispersions contain high concentrations of pigment and are thus used as colorants across industries.
COVID-19 Impact
Supply Chain Problems and Trade Restrictions Restricted Market Growth amid Pandemic
Slowdown of the paints & coatings sector during the COVID-19 pandemic has directly affected the organic pigment dispersions market growth. Disruptions caused by the pandemic, including lockdown restrictions, supply chain uncertainty, and workforce shortage negatively impacted paints & coatings production. Demand was also hampered by lower demand across automotive, construction, and other key industry verticals. However, recovery of these industries with the gradual ease of containment measures will help the market recover in the forthcoming years.
