Industry Insights, Market Size, CAGR, High-Level Analysis: Global Industrial Adhesives Market

The global industrial adhesives market size was valued at USD 47.60 billion in 2018 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% from 2019 to 2025. The rising demand from packaging industry and growing automobile sector especially in developing economies is expected to drive the market growth over the coming years. Various properties of the product such as flexibility, solvent-free, lower costs, less vibration, high fatigue & thermal shock tolerance along with reduced waste and high productivity have increased its application in the automotive industry. The product is increasingly replacing the conventional materials such as fasteners used in doors, hoods, deck lid flanges, roof panels and dashboards along with other automobile components. Adhesive bonding technologies have reduced the time and costs required to bond automotive components, while ultimately reducing overall weight & fuel consumption and improving efficiency. Increasing federal & governmental regulations regarding carbon emissions are expected to further complement product applications in the automotive industry. Increasing packaging demand from various end-use industries such as pharmaceuticals, food & beverages and cosmetics is expected to drive the market growth over the coming years. Growth of e-commerce commodities demand, in which packaging is a necessary factor, is anticipated to drive the product demand over the coming years. The industrial adhesives market is likely to face a challenge due to volatile crude oil prices. Crude oil derivatives such as vinyl acetate monomer, polyols, toluene diisocyanate (TDI), and methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) are used in the manufacture of raw materials for industrial adhesives. The fluctuation in the price of crude oil negatively impacts the raw material costs, thus leading to high pricing of the product. This is likely to hinder the market growth over the coming years.

Product Insights of Global Industrial Adhesives Market

Acrylics were the leading product segment accounted for a volume share of 43.5% in 2018. They are used to enhance the aesthetic appeal, and improve the bonding strength of metals. Characteristics such as fast curing, acid & solvent resistant make them suitable in various end-use industries such as furniture, medical devices, and packaging. Polyvinyl acetate is expected to register an average growth owing to its properties such as high boiling & temperature resistance. Its superior bond strength along with the improved creep resistance makes it suitable for use in packaging industry and furniture manufacturing. Epoxy adhesives are largely used in the automotive industry. Properties of epoxy adhesives such as durability, oil absorption capacity, good wash-out resistance, and high strength across a wide temperature range makes them suitable for the automotive industry. They are majorly used in the car body owing to their high mechanical strength and adhesion to metals and heat & corrosion resistance. The aforementioned advantages of epoxy adhesives are likely to propel the product demand over the coming years. Polyurethanes are projected to register a CAGR of 4.5%, in terms of revenue, from 2019 to 2025. They are used to bind different materials such as wood, rubber, cardboard or glass. Increasing demand from wood industry is anticipated to drive the market growth over the next seven years. In addition, rising construction activities globally is likely to increase its application in kitchen flooring, cupboards, and work surfaces owing to its high-fracture resistance.

Application Insights of Global Industrial Adhesives Market

In packaging segment, increasing application of industrial adhesives for labeling, carton sealing and corrugated box manufacturing has resulted in high market penetration. Moreover, rising demand for frozen goods, expanding food & beverage industry, and flexible packaging applications are expected to provide growth opportunities. Properties such as high handling strength, superior performance under stressful conditions, and curing ability has made adhesives a popular replacement for mechanical fasteners in packaging applications. Automotive segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.7%, in terms of volume, over the forecast period. Shifting trend towards lightweight cars with streamlined modern designs to facilitate lesser wind resistance and enable high speeds is promoting adhesive applications in automobiles. Average car bodies have steel sheets with 0.6 to 0.8 mm thickness which require high strength bonding to promote maximum safety in case of accidents or mishaps. The growth is majorly driven by rising demand from the automotive industry to assemble various materials such as glass, rubber, and plastic. In medical segment, rising prevalence of diseases and increasing geriatric population is expected to contribute to the market growth. Industrial adhesives are increasingly being used to manufacture, assemble, pack, and label medical devices and equipment. Disposable devices and reusable products such as surgical masks, gloves, catheters, syringes and others are generally bonded using high grade, sterilized adhesives. Footwear segment is projected to register a CAGR of 6.4%, in terms of revenue, over the forecast period. This growth is attributed to increasing use of polyurethane adhesives owing to high adhesion and cohesion strength. Solvent-based polyurethanes along with various other adhesives such as PCP are used in the manufacture of footwear. Changing lifestyle along with rising health concerns is likely to propel the demand for designer and sports shoes, which in turn is anticipated to augment the market growth over the coming years.
