Market Segmentation
The global laminating adhesives market has been segmented by type, resin, application, and region. Based on type, the market has been segmented into solvent-based, solvent free, water-based, hot melt, radiation curable, and others. The demand for water-based laminating adhesives is increasing in end-use industries on account of increasing regulations against VOC emissions that occurs when solvent-based adhesives are used. Water-based adhesives are manufactured using natural occurring materials such as dextrins, sodium silicates, and natural rubber. The demand for water-based adhesives is increasing in numerous applications including flexible packaging and automotive among others. Solvent free laminating adhesives are being widely preferred in wet environment and also, in food applications due to growing awareness about the material safety used for packaging. Solvent based laminates are used in both food and non-food applications such as automotive interiors, construction material, and electrical materials among others.
Based on resin, the market has been segmented into polyether urethane, polyester, polyester urethane, acrylic, and others. Acrylic segment accounted for the largest share of the global laminating adhesives in 2017. This market growth can be attributed to the superior benefits offered such as cost effectiveness and ability to provide bonds for all materials ranging from flexible and tough to rigid and hard.
Based on application, the market has been segmented into packaging, automotive interiors, construction materials, floor basecoat, electrical materials, and others. Packaging has been further sub-segmented into food, medical, and others. Packaging segment accounted for the largest market share on account of increasing demand in flexible packaging applications especially food. Automotive interior segment is likely to drive the market growth at a significant rate on account of increasing production of vehicles globally.
