플라스틱 도금 시장 예측 : 기회, 성장 촉진요인, 산업 동향 분석(2026-2035년)

The Global Plating on Plastics Market was valued at USD 800.1 million in 2025 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.7% to reach USD 1.51 billion by 2035.

The market is driven by the increasing shift of OEMs toward lightweight automotive components aimed at improving fuel efficiency and reducing emissions. Metallic-plated plastics allow manufacturers to achieve metal-like aesthetics and strength without adding extra weight, making them widely used in vehicle trims, grills, emblems, and interior decor. Growth is also fueled by consumer electronics companies adopting premium metallic finishes in devices, where plated plastics combine durability with design flexibility. Rising consumer preference for sleek, luxurious finishes further supports demand, while the expansion of electric vehicle production is encouraging the use of lightweight, plated plastic components to enhance battery efficiency and vehicle performance.

The chrome segment reached USD 428.3 million in 2025 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.3% from 2026 to 2035. Chrome finishes are highly sought after due to their reflective appearance, durability, and versatility for both interior and exterior applications. Automakers, electronics manufacturers, and other sectors prefer chrome plating to achieve premium metallic looks while managing weight and cost. Its compatibility with various substrates ensures consistent demand across industries.

The electroplating segment accounted for USD 380.3 million in 2025 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.3% during 2026-2035. Electroplating remains popular for applications requiring thicker and more durable metal layers, such as exterior automotive trims and high-end fixtures. Meanwhile, vacuum metallization is increasingly adopted for lightweight decorative parts in electronics and consumer goods due to its design flexibility and faster processing. Emerging hybrid and specialized coating techniques are also expanding market capabilities to meet unique aesthetic and technical requirements.

North America Plating on Plastics Market was valued at USD 193.8 million in 2025.
