The rise in the construction sector is expected to propel the growth of the flooring adhesive market going forward. The construction sector, also referred to as the construction industry, encompasses all activities related to planning, designing, developing, constructing, renovating, and maintaining buildings and infrastructure. Flooring adhesives play a critical role in construction projects by providing practical and aesthetic benefits, ensuring proper installation, stability, and longevity of various floor coverings in residential, commercial, and industrial spaces. For instance, in June 2023, Construction Digital, a UK-based platform connecting construction brands, reported that the UK construction industry is projected to grow by 12% in 2024, followed by an additional 3% increase in 2025. Therefore, the rise in the construction sector is driving the growth of the flooring adhesive market.

Major companies operating in the flooring adhesive market are focusing on developing innovative solutions, such as single-component eco-friendly wood flooring adhesives, to meet the growing demand for sustainable and low-VOC construction materials driven by stricter environmental regulations and increasing consumer awareness. Single-component eco-friendly wood flooring adhesives simplify installation by eliminating the need for mixing multiple components, while reducing harmful emissions compared to traditional multi-component or solvent-based adhesives. For instance, in February 2025, Mapei, an Italy-based multinational chemical company, launched Ultrabond Eco 987, a single-component wood flooring adhesive. This water-based adhesive offers strong initial grab and long-term bonding strength, while minimizing VOC emissions for environmental safety. It is easy to apply, reduces installation time, and is compatible with various wooden flooring types, including parquet and engineered wood. Ultrabond Eco 987 combines high-performance adhesion with environmental sustainability and user safety, providing a practical improvement over conventional adhesives that often require mixing, generate higher emissions, or contain hazardous solvents.

In March 2024, Bostik, a global adhesive manufacturer based in France, acquired Arc Building Products for an undisclosed sum.
