The reactive hot melt adhesives market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.95 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several factors, including the increasing demand in electronics assembly, expansion in automotive manufacturing, advancements in the packaging industry, ongoing construction and infrastructure development, and the growing popularity of these materials in medical applications. These factors collectively contribute to the expansion of various industries.
The reactive hot melt adhesives market is poised for growth, driven by various factors. The increasing demand in the packaging industry is expected to be a significant catalyst for the market's expansion. Packaging plays a crucial role in product distribution, identification, storage, promotion, and usage. To meet the dynamic needs of the packaging industry, the hot-melt adhesives sector is tasked with providing strong and durable solutions. Projections by Smithers indicate that the global packaging sector's demand is set to reach $1.05 trillion by 2024. Additionally, data from the Indian Institute of Packaging (IIP) highlights a 200% increase in packaging consumption in India over the past decade, underscoring the industry's growth. This surge in demand from the packaging sector is a key driver for the reactive hot melt adhesives market.
The rise in residential construction projects is anticipated to contribute to the growing demand for reactive hot melt adhesives. Residential construction involves the planning, design, and construction of housing units, and the use of these adhesives in the construction industry enhances structural integrity and accelerates construction processes. According to Oxford Economics, global construction output was valued at US$10.7 trillion in 2020 and is expected to experience a 42% growth, reaching US$15.2 trillion by 2030, driven by a surge in residential construction projects. The growth projections indicate a 32% increase in North America, adding US$580 billion by 2030, and a 23% growth in Western Europe, pushing construction output to US$2.5 trillion in 2030. As a result, the rise in residential construction projects is a significant factor fueling the demand for reactive hot melt adhesives.
Technological advancements are a prominent trend gaining traction in the reactive hot melt adhesives market. Leading companies in this sector are strategically focusing on innovation to maintain their market position. An illustrative example is Henkel AG & Co., a German-based company in the chemical and consumer goods industries, which introduced Technomelt Supra ECO in February 2021. This new hot melt adhesive range incorporates advanced technology that enhances sustainability and reduces CO2 emissions while preserving the performance characteristics of the previous Technomelt Supra range. The Technomelt Supra ECO materials offer the same adhesion, set and open time, and heat resistance capabilities, providing a sustainable and low-carbon option for consumer goods and packaging.
Major companies in the reactive hot melt adhesives market are actively engaging in product launches, specifically tailored for woodworking applications, such as edge banding. Bostik, a France-based company specializing in adhesives and sealants, introduced SG6518 and SG6520 in May 2022, representing the Next Generation of Adhesive Solutions for Woodworking. These formulations, designed as HMPUR adhesive solutions, exhibit superior bonding strength, water resistance, anti-mold properties, and high green strength. These features contribute significantly to enhancing durability and quality in various woodworking applications within the reactive hot melt adhesives market.
In February 2022, Arkema, a France-based specialty chemicals and advanced materials company, acquired Shanghai Zhiguan Polymer Materials (PMP) for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition is aimed at strengthening Arkema's position in the engineering adhesives market and accelerating its development in the rapidly growing electronics market in Asia. Shanghai Zhiguan Polymer Materials (PMP) is a China-based company specializing in hot-melt adhesives for the consumer electronics market.
