Global Demand for Low-VOC Wood Coatings Surges Amid Tighter Environmental Rules

2025 has seen a 22% year-on-year growth in global demand for low-VOC wood coatings, driven by stricter regulations—such as the EU’s REACH Regulation (limiting VOC emissions to <100g/L) and the U.S. EPA’s new “Green Building Standards.” For furniture manufacturers and woodworking businesses, switching to eco-friendly coatings is no longer optional but a must to access key markets. DOIT’s product portfolio aligns perfectly with this trend: our water-based coatings have VOC content as low as 30g/L, and PU low-odor series meet both EU and U.S. standards. Industry analysts predict this demand will grow by another 18% in 2026, especially in Southeast Asia and North America. DOIT’s pre-certified (CCC, REACH) products help clients avoid compliance delays, making it a preferred partner for global woodworking brands.
