Global Polyurethane Adhesive Market 2024
Adhesives, substances designed to bind two different or alike materials together resisting separation, are categorized based on their technology, components, and applications. Among the various technologies such as waterborne, solvent-borne, hot melt, and pressure-sensitive adhesives, polyurethane adhesives stand out due to their composition primarily of polyols and isocyanates. As members of the elastomer family, these adhesives are recognized for their exceptional durability and flexibility, which contribute to their strong bonding capabilities. They are offered in both one-part and two-part systems.
The integration of polyurethane adhesives into manufacturing processes heralds promising growth prospects within the industry. These adhesives have become preferable alternatives to mechanical fasteners like bolts and rivets in automotive applications, paving the way for manufacturers to become exclusive suppliers to car producers by offering adhesives tailored to specific vehicle models. The market for automotive polyurethane adhesives is anticipated to expand at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 6.4% over the forecast period, with its valuation increasing from $2.3 billion in 2023 to $3.5 billion by 2029.
Water-based polyurethane adhesives represent the largest sub-segment within the market by technology. They serve as eco-friendly alternatives to solvent-based adhesives by eliminating volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions and enhancing durability. The demand for these water-based solutions, particularly in Europe, is expected to drive substantial growth in this market segment, which is projected to experience a CAGR of 6.7%, escalating its value from $2.5 billion in 2023 to $3.9 billion by 2029.
In terms of resin types, thermoset polyurethane adhesives dominate due to their superior curing properties that forge a more robust and enduring bond between substrates. Owing to their exceptional adhesive characteristics and the requirement of only a single application for effective bonding, thermoset adhesives command a significant share of the market over thermoplastic adhesives. Manufacturers are advised to concentrate on producing thermoset polyurethane adhesives, especially for automotive applications.
The Asia-Pacific (APAC) region emerges as the largest market for polyurethane adhesives, buoyed by major industries such as building and construction, automotive, and packaging. With the gradual lifting of COVID-19 restrictions globally, the building and construction sector is poised for growth. Additionally, the footwear and packaging industries, particularly in China, play a crucial role in the region's market dynamics. The surge in online sales is expected to further propel the demand for polyurethane adhesives in packaging. The APAC market for polyurethane adhesives is forecasted to grow at a CAGR of 6.5%, with its size expanding from $3.1 billion in 2023 to $4.8 billion by 2029. Europe ranks as the second-largest market, driven predominantly by the automotive sector where adhesives find extensive use in windshields, gearboxes, and vehicle panels. The push towards low VOC adhesives and the production of electric vehicles (EVs) in the European Union presents significant opportunities for growth. Manufacturers should seek partnerships or explore avenues within the adhesive market for EVs to capitalize on these emerging opportunities.
