Factors contributing to this growth include increased construction activities, advancements in adhesive technologies, new commercial projects, and a rising demand for durable and high-performance materials.
Various reasons for the growth in construction adhesives are attributed to the soaring construction activity in most parts of the world. Rapid urbanization and interest in rural to urban and semi-urban lifestyles, infrastructure development, and a strong growth rate in residential and commercial building projects have increased manifold, which in turn has raised the demand for construction adhesives. The adhesives are used crucially for holding the structure for a long period and, hence, have become vital in the modern methods of construction.
Due to innovation in adhesive formulations, products have come forward showing improved bonding strength, flexibility, and resistance to environmental factors. It, in turn, makes adhesives more versatile and suitable for wider application, further stimulating their adoption in construction projects. Increased demand for sustainable and green solutions is another key factor driving market growth.
There is an increasing interest in adhesives that have low levels of volatile organic compounds and can contribute to the energy efficiency of buildings. The shift toward greener products for broader environmental and regulatory trends will continue to push manufacturers toward more sustainable adhesive options. The construction adhesives market is closely linked to the construction industry, especially in major economies such as India, China, and the United States. According to the Invest India report, India's construction sector is expected to reach USD 1.4 trillion by 2025, driving the demand for construction adhesives. Factors such as urbanization and infrastructure projects boost this growth.
Technological Advancements Driving Market Growth Through Adhesive Performance and Versatility
Key factors for the growth of the construction adhesives market come from new adhesive formulations developed owing to technological improvements. These are related to performance improvement, versatility enhancement, and application of adhesives for making effective and a wide range of construction needs. Recent developments have resulted in adhesives with higher bonding strength and better durability in the long run, providing better longevity.
For instance, the introduction of polyurethane-based adhesives brings unmatched strength and resistance to extreme weather and is, hence, ideal for critical applications in construction projects. Long-lasting bonds provided by adhesives resist mechanical stresses and environmental challenges to maintain structural integrity.
Modern adhesive technologies are designed to be flexible and adapt to a variety of materials and surfaces. Hybrid polymer adhesives combine the positive attributes of polyurethane and silicones into products that can bond to a range of substrates, including metals, plastics, and glass. Such flexibility allows the use of adhesives in diverse construction applications, ranging from panel securing to joint sealing, thus extending their utility throughout various jobs.
For instance, in 2022, Sika AG, a key supplier of innovative sealing, bonding, reinforcement, and protection solutions, participated as an exhibitor at the adhesives and bonding expo in North America to boost product demand and new innovations.
Increase in Construction Activities to Drive Market Demand
Urbanization, infrastructure development, and growing real estate markets are expected to drive the demand for high-value adhesives in different applications worldwide. Key drivers include rapid urbanization and expansion of infrastructure development. Adhesives have a critical role to play in projects belonging to end-user industries, from providing structural bonding to finishes.
As the scale and complexity of building projects mount to cater to a fast-growing economy that requires more homes, office space, retail outlets, and industrial establishments, the uses of adhesives are expected to increase, from the installation of windowpanes to door fittings and floor and wall covering to prefabricated panels. An instance could be curtaining wall systems for high-rise buildings, whereby adhesive technologies must bond strongly and durably, playing a significant role from structural and aesthetic standpoints for the facade.
According to Invest India, India construction market is expected to boom after 2024. Nearly 600 million people in the residential construction segment are estimated to live in urban centers by 2030, creating a demand for 25 million additional mid-end and affordable units associated with the construction adhesives market.
