Adhesives and sealants are versatile solutions with strong bonding properties and are widely used in industrial sectors like flexible packaging, textiles, and structural applications. Sealants, produced using similar techniques and materials, are semi-solid and prevent fluid leaks by filling substrate gaps, used in electronics, aerospace, automotive, food & beverages, and transportation industries. Adhesives provide robust bonding, while sealants play a crucial role in holding substrates and sealing gaps. Industrial growth is boosting the demand for adhesives, particularly in the packaging industry, which has seen a 200% increase in consumption over the past decade. Government initiatives like e-AMRIT and increased US reliance on furniture imports are contributing to this growth, highlighting the industry's potential for growth. Urbanization and infrastructure development are driving global demand for construction and automotive products. The demand for environmentally friendly products and the growing medical device market also present growth opportunities. Additionally, the medical device market is expanding. However, the adhesives and sealants market faces growth constraints due to volatile raw material prices, necessitating strategic adaptation and risk management to maintain market stability.

 

The hot melt segment is predicted to hold the highest market share through the forecast period.

Based on the technology, the adhesives and sealants market is classified into water-based, solvent-based, hot melt, reactive, and others. Among these, the hot melt segment is predicted to hold the highest market share through the forecast period. This is due to its ease of application, non-toxic nature, and rapid curing process. These adhesives, typically 100% solid formulations, are widely used across industries and transform into liquid states when heated above their softening point.

 

The adhesives segment is anticipated to hold the highest market share during the projected timeframe.    

Based on the resin type, the adhesives and sealants market is divided into adhesives and sealants. Among these, the adhesives segment is anticipated to hold the highest market share during the projected timeframe. Polyurethane adhesives, which are mostly used in woodworking, building construction, and the automotive industry, especially in outdoor applications, dominate the adhesives and sealants market. The adhesives segment includes silicone, epoxy, cyanoacrylate, acrylic, and polyurethane.

 

The paper & packaging segment is anticipated to hold the greatest market share during the projected timeframe.   

Based on the application, the adhesives and sealants market is divided into paper & packaging, building & construction, woodworking, transportation, footwear & leather, and medical. Among these, the paper & packaging segment is anticipated to hold the greatest market share during the projected timeframe. Adhesives are crucial in paper bonding, creating corrugated boxes, and laminating printed sheets, as well as making bathroom tissues, paper towels, and books. They are also used in the packaging industry for bags, cigarettes, disposables, envelopes, flexible packaging, composite containers, speciality packaging, and labels.

 

Asia Pacific is estimated to hold the largest share of the adhesives and sealants market over the forecast period.
