The global Adhesives & Sealants market accounted for a market revenue of USD 61 billion in the year 2019 and is projected to further grow at a CAGR of more than 4% over the foreseeable future. Increasing penetration of lightweight cars that save fuel and reduce emissions have powered the world's high-performance adhesive sales. These adhesives are used for various automotive uses, both indoors and outdoors. Of example, the replacement of nuts and bolts will reduce weight and therefore improve vehicles fuel efficiency. It is expected to replace conventional welding equipment and other methods of mechanical attachment by improved adhesives with superior attachment capacities.
The adhesives and dressing materials are used mainly in the tiling industry. Thus, fast-paced building growth is expected to generate growth opportunities in the near future, in particular in emerging economies such as India and China.
It’s being expected that by 2030, the Adhesives & Sealants market cap will hit USD 33.3 billion at a CAGR growth of about 8 %.
The industry is expected to be motivated to incorporate bio-based adhesives in the strict regulations imposed by environmental monitoring authorities concerning the use of high-volatile organic compounds (VOC). Therefore, manufacturers pursue various strategic strategies, such as intensive research and development programs to produce sustainable products.
