Cost analysis of water-based paint spray can and oil-based paint spray can Mar 02, 2024

In the industrial paint industry, some users may still have the misconception that water-based paint is only relatively environmentally friendly, and its performance is not as good as oil-based paint, and its cost is also much higher than oil-based paint. This understanding was relatively correct a few years ago, but with the development of water-based paint technology, the current water-based paint has achieved better performance and lower cost than oil-based paint in commonly used varieties. The coating operation cost includes direct cost of materials, construction cost, kinetic energy cost, auxiliary material cost, environmental protection emission fixed assets investment, equipment depreciation cost, employee occupational safety cost, tax, fire control cost, storage cost, transportation cost, etc. The national plan is to impose a consumption tax and carbon emission tax on solvent based paints, and restrict the use of solvent based paints from a government regulatory perspective. This will inevitably significantly increase the cost of using solvent based paints for enterprises in the future.

Regarding the cost of water-based paint spray can and oil-based paint spray can, let me give you a specific analysis and introduction, which is reflected in the following points:

1、 Raw material cost: In the past, the cost of water-based paint raw materials has been at a high level for a long time. Most of the various raw materials suitable for water-based industrial coatings are in the new stage, and an effective collaborative material system has not yet been formed. After years of development, more suitable raw materials have emerged, and costs have been controlled.

2、 R&D cost: The technology of water-based industrial coatings is not perfect, and technological improvement requires long-term accumulation and continuous R&D investment. The strength of the R&D team is the key point of R&D cost.

3、 Construction cost: Waterborne industrial coatings have strict requirements for the construction environment and often have special requirements for painting equipment and processes.

4、 Dilution cost: The diluent used for water-based paint construction is water, with almost zero cost, while oil-based paint uses diluents, which are expensive and have a stimulating odor.

5、 Labor cost: Currently, spray painters tend to spray water-based products, resulting in fewer workers spraying paint. It is more difficult to find more skilled painters, and the labor costs to be paid are relatively high.

6、 Additional costs: The calculation of costs should not only include the value of the currency itself, but also include environmental treatment costs. In addition, oil-based paint belongs to solvent based products, which are flammable and prone to danger, but there is almost no possibility of igniting water-based paint. From the perspective of storage and transportation costs and safety, water-based paint is also more reassuring. For consumers, the non-toxic, odorless, and low volatility performance of water-based paint is a priority choice, after all, health costs are important. From the perspective of additional cost, water-based paint is lower.

With the development of water-based paint technology, the current water-based paint has achieved better performance and lower cost than paint in commonly used varieties. Therefore, the cost comparison between water-based paint and paint cannot remain in the past view, and a dialectical perspective is still needed.

At present, the paint is made into small cans on the market. The paint is poured into a pressure resistant container (tin can), the valve is sealed, the propellant gas is filled, and the aerosol valve & nozzle and outer cover are fastened. When in use, the paint is sprayed out in a mist shape by pressing the touch button, which is widely used in furniture repair and car spray painting fields. At the same time, new spray painted packaging 2k aerosol tin cans have also appeared in the market.
