Adhesives & Sealants Market Analysis

The global Adhesives and Sealants market is expected to reach around USD 64 billion by the end of this year and is projected to register a CAGR of more than 6% during the forecast period. COVID-19 negatively impacted the market in 2020. However, the market is estimated to have reached pre-pandemic levels and is expected to grow steadily.

  • Expanding packaging and building and construction industries around the globe are likely to drive demand for adhesives and sealants during the forecast period.
  • However, strict environmental regulations set by the government on the use of volatile organic compounds are anticipated to hamper market expansion.
  • Furthermore, increasing awareness of renewable and eco-friendly products is projected to generate opportunities in the adhesives and sealants market in the coming years.

Adhesives & Sealants Market Trends

Rising Packaging Industry

  • The packaging segment is the largest consumer of the adhesives and sealants market. Packaging is witnessing strong demand from end-user industries, such as food and beverages, cosmetics, consumer goods, stationery, etc.
  • The current rise in oil costs favored paperboard over plastics, finally giving paperboard an advantage, plateauing at 41% of the worldwide packaging sales for a decade, even as plastics' share increased by 5% to 37% during the same period.
  • According to CEPI, the total production of paper and board in the CEPI member countries of the European Union was 90,583 kilotons, registering a growth rate of 6.1% as compared to 85,349 kilotons of production in the year 2020. From the total production of paper and board, packaging paper and board accounted for 53,545 kilotons of production in the year 2021.
  • Furthermore, the total consumption of paper and board by the Cepi member countries in the year 2021 was 75,219 kilotons compared to 71,108 kilotons in the year 2020 hence registering a growth rate of 5.8%.
  • Online retail shopping is increasing at a higher rate with the rising internet technologies and web applications, which have primarily supported the packaging industry's growth.
  • Moreover, the demand for cosmetics and food and beverage products is expected to grow due to the growing population and demand for quality products, urbanization, and consumers inclining toward technology, fueling the need for the packaging industry.
  • Hence, with such robust global packaging industry growth, the demand in the adhesives and sealants market is also expected to increase during the forecast period.

Asia-Pacific Region to Dominate the Market

  • The Asia-Pacific region dominated the global market. The increasing demand from industries such as packaging, construction, automotive, healthcare, etc., in the countries such as China, India, and Japan is driving the market.
  • China's growth is fueled mainly by rapid expansion in the residential and commercial building sectors and the country's expanding economy. China is encouraging and enduring a continuous urbanization process, with a projected rate of 70% by 2030. As a result, increased building activity in nations like China is projected to fuel the region's adhesive industry. All such factors tend to increase the demand for adhesives across the region.
  • Industries such as food and beverage, cosmetics, and consumer goods are continuously innovating new products, increasing production, and resorting to attractive packaging materials to attract customers. For example, in India, the packaging category is the highest end-user category, holding about 67% of total adhesive users.
  • Furthermore, several countries in the region are putting efforts to enhance the Automotive sector by investing heavily in electric cars to achieve net zero emissions. For example, in Japan, over 8,600 of the 20,000 new EVs delivered in 2021 were imported electric vehicles. Compared to the previous year, the number of foreign automobile registrations of newly imported EVs increased nearly thrice.
  • Construction activities are growing in the region with the lockdown measure eased up. The area is always at the forefront of infrastructure development and is expected to witness growth in funding for construction activities in the forecast period hence driving the market.
  • Furthermore, South Korean builders' overseas building orders have surpassed 30 billion US dollars for the third consecutive year in 2022, owing to strong demand from Asia, North American and Pacific Ocean regions.
  • Hence, such market trends are expected to significantly impact the growth of the adhesives and sealants market in the region during the forecast period.
