Description

The global sealants and adhesives market generated approx USD 69.39 Billion in 2024 . Growing at a CAGR of 3.70% in the period 2025-2034, it is expected to generate a value of USD 99.79 Billion by 2034 .

The market is driven by surged demand in the Asia Pacific region where the rising middle-class population has led to an increase in the demand for adhesives and sealants in sectors like infrastructure and construction.

Sealants and Adhesives: Properties and Applications

Sealants are used to seal the gaps between substrates and joints to prevent environmental elements like water, dust or dirt from entering the structure. Adhesives are used to join together two surfaces by adhesion. Adhesives have higher strength than sealants while sealants have higher flexibility and lower shrinkage ability as compared to adhesives. Sealants are paste like in consistency which allows them to fill the gaps between surfaces and are usually made with an elastomer giving them improved flexibility and elongation properties. Adhesives, on the other hand, usually come in a liquid form, which solidifies upon application, and have superior durability and rigidity as compared to sealants.

Adhesives can be segmented into:
  • Reactive Systems
  • Epoxy
  • Polyurethane
  • Others
  • Solvent Based
  • Vinyl Acetate
  • PVA (Polyvinyl Acetate)
  • Rubber
  • Others
  • Water Based
  • Acryl Emulsion
  • Vinyl Acetate
  • Others
  • Hot Melt
  • EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate)
  • Rubber
  • Others
  • Others
  • Sealants can be categorised as:
    • Silicones
    • Acrylic
    • Butyls
    • Polysulphides
    • Polyurethanes
    • Others
    Sealants and adhesives find extensive application across various industries that are essential in our daily lives, like:
    • Paper, board and related products
    • Building, construction, civil engineering, craftsmen
    • Woodworking and joinery
    • Transportation
    • Footwear and leather
    • Consumer/DIY
    • Assembly operations
    • Others
    Market Analysis

    The global sealants and adhesives market is driven by a growing infrastructure industry along with rising demand in the automobile sector. With rising environmental concerns, the automotive industry is looking to manufacture lightweight vehicles with increased fuel efficiency.
