Spain Automotive OEM Coatings Market Trends:

Increasing Demand for Sustainable and Low-VOC Coatings

The automotive OEM coatings industry in Spain is witnessing a significant shift towards low-VOC (volatile organic compound) and waterborne coatings, driven by stringent European Union (EU) environmental regulations. As manufacturers strive for eco-friendly solutions, solvent-free and high-solid coatings are gaining traction due to their lower emissions, improved durability, and reduced energy consumption during application. The adoption of bio-based resins and UV-curable coatings is also expanding, offering enhanced adhesion, corrosion resistance, and longevity. OEMs are increasingly collaborating with coatings manufacturers to develop lightweight, high-performance coatings that align with sustainability goals. This trend is reinforced by automotive brands seeking compliance with carbon neutrality targets, further accelerating R&D in green coatings within Spain's automotive sector. For instance, in March 2025, BASF launched Ultrason® E 2010 BMB, the world's first biomass-balanced polyethersulfone (PESU), replacing fossil feedstock with renewable alternatives. Certified under ISCC PLUS, this drop-in solution offers the same performance and certifications as standard PESU, supporting sustainability goals across industries like automotive, electronics, and healthcare. Manufactured using green electricity, it reduces product carbon footprint while enabling customers to maintain existing processing lines.

Growth of Electric Vehicle (EV) Manufacturing and Specialty Coatings

The expansion of Spain’s EV sector is reshaping demand for advanced automotive coatings, particularly in heat-resistant, insulating, and high-gloss coatings. For instance, as per industry reports, by May 2024, 41,474 electrified vehicles were registered in Spain, up 1.2% year-over-year. In line with this, the country has 29,301 charging points, with 11,173 installed in 2023. The government plans a €1.25 billion EV funding initiative, while automakers push low-cost EV models to accelerate adoption. EV battery enclosures require coatings with thermal management properties, while lightweight materials such as aluminum and composites demand specialized coatings for enhanced adhesion and durability. Additionally, self-healing coatings and anti-scratch finishes are becoming essential to maintain vehicle aesthetics and longevity. Leading automotive manufacturers are investing in customized coatings for EV components, including battery housings, chassis, and charging ports, to ensure superior protection against corrosion and wear. With Spain emerging as a European hub for EV production, the demand for high-performance and functional coatings is expected to rise significantly in the coming years.

Advancements in Smart Coatings and Digital Color Customization

The integration of smart coatings with self-cleaning, anti-fingerprint, and temperature-responsive properties is transforming Spain’s automotive OEM coatings market. Nanotechnology-based coatings are gaining prominence, offering enhanced hydrophobicity, UV resistance, and improved surface durability. In addition, digital color customization technologies are revolutionizing vehicle aesthetics, enabling automakers to offer personalized coatings with color-shifting effects and rapid color changes. These advancements cater to the growing consumer preference for unique and customizable vehicle designs. AI-driven paint application systems are also being deployed in automotive assembly lines, ensuring precision, efficiency, and minimal waste. As automotive manufacturers embrace digitalization, the adoption of smart coatings and digital color innovations is expected to drive new opportunities in Spain’s OEM coatings market. For instance, in June 2023, BASF Española inaugurated its Technology Competence Center in Marchamalo, Spain, to enhance automotive coating solutions. The €14 million facility supports over 100 factories worldwide, replicating vehicle painting processes under varied conditions. It integrates Industry 4.0 digital connectivity and strengthens BASF’s strategy for solvent-borne basecoats. The center also prioritizes sustainability with energy-efficient equipment.
