PW Consulting has published a report on the worldwide polymer plaster market for 2026.

Polymer-modified plasters sit between conventional cement renders and the decorative lime finishes used in interiors. They are valued for adhesion, flexibility and crack resistance, and are mostly specified for external rendering and for internal surfaces that need to move without cracking.

ArtCoatings has not seen the report’s methodology and cannot verify its figures. Market reports in this category are sold rather than peer-reviewed, and their segment boundaries differ from one publisher to the next — so figures from two reports on nominally the same market are frequently not comparable.

Why this matters

Segment definitions decide who is counted as a competitor. If polymer-modified decorative finishes are counted with renders rather than with art finishes, the decorative sector looks smaller than it is, and investment follows the number.

What remains unconfirmed

  • The market definition, base year and currency basis.
  • Whether decorative interior plasters are included or excluded.
  • How the figures were validated.
