Rapid Growth in the Construction Industry is Escalating Growth of the Adhesives and Sealants Market
Adhesives and sealants provide the best kind of seal
protection and performance for both the sealing process and the objects being
sealed. It consists of primary material, usually epoxy, and secondary material,
such as thermoset polyimide, which have properties that help it adhere to a wide
range of surfaces without causing any damage. This kind of product is commonly
found in use in a number of different industries, including shipping and
transportation, electronics, medicine, and foodservice, automotive, and
aerospace.
Growing demand for adhesives and sealants from various
different industrial sectors is fueling the growth of the adhesives and
sealants market. Adhesives have excellent tensile and sheer strength which
makes them ideal for holding and bonding application whereas sealants provide
compressibility, elongation, modulus of elasticity, and fatigue & tear
resistance properties which makes them ideal for filling up gaps. Such an
advantage associated with the adhesives and sealants is projected to foster the
growth of the adhesives
and sealants market. Moreover, the growing demand for bio-based
adhesives & sealants due to increasing environmental concer is further
anticipated to augment the growth of the adhesives and sealants market over the
forecast timeframe.
The Asia Pacific is projected to gain significant growth
over the forecast period and this is attributed to the expansion of the
construction sector in the region which is driving demand for the adhesives and
sealants market. For instance, in 2019, the infrastructure sector witnessed
seven mergers and acquisition (M&A) deals worth US$ 1,461 million.
Moreover, in November 2020, Warburg Pincus-backed logistics real estate firm,
ESR India signed an agreement with the Maharashtra government to invest Rs.
4,310 crore (US$ 578.88 million) to set up 11 industrial and logistics parks
around Mumbai and Pune.
