Ecuador Paints Market Growth
An expanding food processing sector aids the use of machinery such as packaging or wrapping, filling, sealing, and capping machines. Paints used for coating these machines are effective in preventing mould, mildew, and bacterial build-up to prevent food contamination. As of April 2023, Ecuador’s food processing sector accounted for around 45% of Ecuador’s manufacturing GDP.
Some of the major factors driving the Ecuador paints market growth are the growth of the construction sector, expanding automotive sales, and the rising demand for eco-friendly paints. Ecuador is increasingly adopting sustainable construction practices. As a result, water-borne paints with low volatile organic compounds (VOC) compounds and paints with low lead content are gaining popularity in the market.
Key Trends and Developments
Growing infrastructural development; growing demand for eco-friendly paints; rising use of paints in the automotive sector; and the robust growth of the manufacturing sector are propelling the Ecuador paints market expansion

Pintulac is making a significant investment of USD 12 million to construct a modern and sustainable paint factory on a 15-hectare plot of land in Calacalí. This state-of-the-art facility is expected to be operational by the end of the year.
November 2023
Brenntag, a leading distributor of ingredients and chemicals, announced a new supplier agreement with Elementis. Under this agreement, Brenntag will distribute a variety of Elementis products for the coatings and construction markets in Mexico and Ecuador.

April 2023
The Sherwin-Williams Company disclosed its agreement to sell its architectural paint business in China to the global coatings company Akzo Nobel N.V. This division produces and markets decorative paints under the brand name Huarun in China.
Growing infrastructural development and transportation projects
In December 2022, Ecuador's Transport and Public Works Ministry started preparing tenders for 12 projects, including four high-priority projects, including the Quinto Puente, the Guayaquil-Quito highway, the Guayaquil-Cuenca highway, and the Manta-Quevedo highway.
Rising demand for eco-friendly paint
An expanding population in Ecuador aids the demand for affordable and sustainable housing. Annually, the population of Guayaquil, the largest city in Ecuador’s population expands by 1%. Thus, the demand for eco-friendly affordable housing aids the market for sustainably produced low-VOC paints.
Growing demand from the automotive sector
In 2023, motorcycle sales in Ecuador increased by 21.9% compared to 2022. Paint protects automobiles from corrosion and enhances their aesthetic appeal. New vehicle registrations in the country expanded by 14.9% in 2022 y-o-y. The growing demand for mobility thus provides an opportunity for the Ecuador paints market growth.
Growing demand from the manufacturing sector
Paints are crucial in protecting machinery against corrosion, enhancing its lifespan, and ensuring productivity. In 2022, the Ecuadorian manufacturing sector contributed approximately 16.25% to the country’s GDP.
Ecuador Paints Market Trends
Paints act as a protective barrier that keeps moisture out of the structure. Rising investment in the construction sector aids the demand for paints. An expanding infrastructural development is positively influencing the demand for paints in Ecuador. For instance, in June 2023, the World Bank granted Ecuador a USD 150 million road infrastructure loan to respond to infrastructure and transportation emergencies and strengthen its infrastructural sector’s resilience and road safety.
Furthermore, By May 2025, the government aims to increase private participation in the state road network from 17% to 40%. In April 2024, Ecuador announced the addition of seven projects worth USD 2.3 billion to its public-private partnerships (PPP) registry.
