According to a research report published by Decisions Advisors, the Canadian Metal Coating Market size is growing at a CAGR of 9.71% from 2025 to 2035. The market is driven by growing requirements for high-quality casting in the aerospace and automotive sectors, the growing popularity of foundry coatings to improve surface finish and eliminate casting imperfections, and technological developments leading to increasingly efficient and sustainable coating systems

Market Overview

Metal coatings are applied to metals to prevent corrosion and lessen deterioration. Metal coatings are primarily made using techniques including hot-dip galvanising, extrusion coating, and coil coating. The main goal of these procedures is to improve the surface characteristics of metal parts, mainly to offer better defence against corrosion, wear, abrasion, and harsh surroundings, hence increasing the final product's longevity and lifespan.

The coatings industry produces employment with incomes that are 18% higher than other industries while contributing $8.4 billion to Canada’s GDP. Ontario and Quebec are the leading provinces and account for 65% of the employment, 70% of the output and 67% of the GDP. Statistics Canada figures indicate that the average hourly wages in Canada are $25.93/ hour or $51,860 per year. With over 125,243 direct and indirect employment created annually, the coatings industry boosts Canada's GDP and promotes sustainability by prolonging the lifecycle of vital assets.

Sherwin-Williams General Industrial Coatings has established a new 20,000-square-foot factory in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. The business's ability to offer high-performance coatings and prompt service to clients of all sizes throughout central Canada is strengthened by this strategic growth. The purpose is to estimate the market size and future growth potential of the metal coatings industry across multiple segments, such as type, technology. Metal coatings are extensively used in many industrial sectors to extend metal life while decreasing maintenance costs.
