Description

The global Contact Cements market size is expected to reach $ 1806 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 4.1% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).

Contact cement is a type of adhesive that is known for its strong bonding capabilities. It is commonly used in various applications such as woodworking, construction, and crafting. Contact cement is typically available in liquid or gel forms, and it is applied by brushing or rolling it onto the surfaces to be bonded. Once the adhesive is applied, the two surfaces are pressed together firmly and allowed to bond for several hours. Contact cement creates an instant bond and offers excellent resistance to temperature, moisture, and chemicals.

In 2024, global Contact Cements sales reached 290,000 Tons, with an average global market price of around 4,400 USD/Ton. Production capacity reached 300,000 Tons, with a gross profit margin of approximately 23%.
