Research and Markets (RM) anticipates that the global reactive and other adhesives market will grow from USD 10.76 billion in 2022 to USD 11.52 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1%.
Supply Chain Disruptions Due to War and Pandemic
The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services effecting many markets across the globe. The reactive and other adhesives market is expected to grow from USD 14.92 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 6.7%.
The reactive and other adhesives market consists of the sales of anaerobic, and
cyanoacrylates reactive and other adhesives in various forms such as liquids, pastes, tapes, films, and powders. Values in this market are ‘factory gate’ values, that is the value of goods sold by the manufacturers or creators of the goods, whether to other entities (including downstream manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, and retailers) or directly to end customers. The value of goods in this market includes related services sold by the creators of the goods.
The reactive and other adhesives refer to adhesives that are generally made out of monomer (resin) and an initiator. The reactive and other adhesives require a chemical reaction to form an adhesive bond.
Highest Growth in Asia Pacific Region
Asia Pacific was the largest region in the reactive and other adhesives market in 2022. North America was the second-largest region in the reactive & other adhesives market. The regions covered in the reactive & other adhesives market report are Asia-Pacific, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, Middle East, and Africa.
The main types of reactive and other adhesives are epoxy, acrylic, silicone, polyurethane, and other types. The major types of additives are polyurethane, acrylic, silicone, vinyl, epoxides, and other additives that are used in building and construction, automotive and transportation, power, electrical and electronics, and other sectors.
Automotive Industry to Boost Market Growth
The adhesive market is expected to benefit from growth in the automobile industry during the forecast period. There is a drive for the production of lightweight automobiles, which is leading to an increase in demand for adhesives and sealants. These are used in place of welded joints, mechanical fasteners, and gaskets and help reduce the weight of the automobile. For instance, companies such as Jowat are using reactive adhesives for the perfect bonding of vehicle parts in the automotive industry. Thus, the increased use of plastics in automobiles is expected to increase the demand for reactive adhesives during the forecast period.
Stringent safety regulations associated with the manufacturing and transportation of adhesive chemicals have been a major restraint on the market. These substances are highly flammable, toxic, and hazardous when exposed to extreme temperatures and pressures. Companies in this industry should invest in equipment, technologies, and processes to limit toxic levels and chemical concentrations. These regulations increased the operating costs of companies in this industry, thus limiting the scope for investments relating to the launch of new products and expansion into new markets, thereby affecting the market growth.
Many Companies Adopting Internet of Things
Many adhesive companies are adopting IoT (Internet of Things) technologies to connect equipment and smart devices to garner real-time insights and locate gaps in the manufacturing process. The data obtained is processed, analyzed, and interpreted by plant managers and senior-level management to improve quality and achieve optimum production levels. For example, smart systems give information on the working condition and performance of chemical reactors with embedded software and analytics tools to notify plant operators and managers of possible machine breakdowns. For instance, some of the major companies adopting IoT include BASF SE, The Dow Chemical Company, and H.B. Fuller.
In November 2020, Pidilite Industries, an Indian adhesives manufacturing company, acquired Huntsman Corporation for $ 28558.8 million. Through this acquisition, Araldite will add to the already very strong portfolio of Pidilite Industries adhesives and sealants and will complement Pidilite Industries' retail portfolio. Huntsman Corporation is an American manufacturer and marketer of chemical products for consumers and industrial customers.
The countries covered in the reactive and other adhesives market are Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Russia, UK, USA, and Australia.
