According to published data, my country's paint industry concentration CR10 is only 15.22% in 2019, which is in the stage of decentralized competition. Compared with the coating industry in developed countries in Europe, America and Japan, the concentration of the coating industry in my country is very low, and there is still a huge gap with developed countries in the world.

According to statistics, in 2019, the European coating industry CR10 is about 70%, the Japanese coating industry CR10 is as high as 95%, and the American coating industry CR10 also reaches more than 85%; in addition, the concentration of the coating market in South Korea, India, Australia and other regions is also very high.
