Industrial Adhesives Market Overview

The Industrial Adhesives Market size is estimated to reach US$52.4 billion by 2027, after growing at a CAGR of 5.9% during the forecast period 2022-2027. Industrial Adhesives are used to bond substrates via cohesion and adhesion, including the composition of phenolic, acrylic, epoxy, polyurethane, silicone and others. The increase in the applicability of industrial adhesives in the automotive sector for strong bonding and adhesion in the vehicle components is acting as a driving factor in the industrial adhesives industry. According to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA), global automotive production increased from 77,621,582 units in 2020 to 80,145,988 units in 2021. In addition, the preference for water-based adhesives over other types such as pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSA), solvent-based and others is rising, due to their environment-friendly features. These are also fueling the growth of the Industrial Adhesives Market. Furthermore, the major disruption caused by the COVID-19 outbreak impacted the growth of the Industrial Adhesives Market due to disturbance in manufacturing, supply chain disruption, falling demand from major end-use industries and other lockdown restrictions. However, significant recovery is boosting the demand for industrial adhesives for a wide range of applicability and utilization in construction, transportation, electronics and other sectors. Thus, the Industrial Adhesives industry is anticipated to grow rapidly and contribute to the Industrial Adhesives Market size during the forecast period.
