Global Paint Industry ... $84 billion in 2007

World demand for paints and coatings will reach US$83 billion in 2007 driven by higher quality, environmentally friendlier products (e.g., powder-based, rad-cure). Emerging markets in Asia/Pacific, Latin America and Eastern Europe will lead gains while the North American and Western European regions remain dominant.
