Middle East And Africa Bioadhesive Market - Forecasts from 2022 to 2027

The Middle East and Africa bioadhesives market is anticipated to increase at a CAGR of 10.02%, from US$82.345 million in 2020 to US$160.71 million in 2027.

Bioadhesives are naturally occurring polymeric substances with adhesive qualities or glues derived from biological substances like gelatin, starch, or cellulose. They are frequently employed to hold diverse materials together and prevent their separation under a variety of conditions. Due to their environmental friendliness, bioadhesives are growing more popular and are now preferable to synthetic adhesives. The adhesives are used in a variety of end-use industries, including manufacturing, packaging & paper, medical, and wood.

Rise in environmental concerns and industry vertical demand to boost the growth of the bioadhesives market in the region

The region's bioadhesive market is expanding as a result of the negative effects that increased crude oil output is having on the environment and the need to adopt environmentally friendly goods. The government's growing environmental concerns in the region are probably going to lead to an increase in the use of bioadhesives in a variety of industries, including building, consumer products, healthcare, and automobiles. The market for bioadhesives is anticipated to be primarily driven by the region's packaging sector. They are employed in a variety of processes, including bonding, sealing, and labeling. These elements will contribute to the expansion of the bioadhesives market in the region.

Market Developments:

• Feb 2021: With the introduction of the bio-based AFFINITYTM RE adhesive, Dow Packaging and Specialty Plastics, a business subsidiary of Dow, announced the extension of its high-performance AFFINITYTM GA polyolefin elastomers (POE). The Technomelt SUPRA ECO line from Henkel, a Dow customer, was able to reach another milestone in both companies' environmental initiatives thanks to this innovation. AFFINITYTM RE provides an alternative to goods based on fossil fuels and can help reduce carbon footprints while delivering the same well-known performance as the complete AFFINITYTM GA line, in response to consumer demands for more sustainable solutions from manufacturers and brands. To do this, tall oil, a waste product of the paper-milling industry that is ultimately produced from sustainably managed forests, is used in the production of AFFINITYTM RE.
• April 2021: The 2484 3MTM Single Coated Medical Film Tape with Hi-Tack Silicone adhesive on the Liner is the newest member of a new class of silicone bioadhesives from 3M that balances strength, flexibility, and comfort. 2484 3M Hi-Tack Silicone Adhesive is the best choice for applications on delicate skin because it is breathable, and conformable, allows for up to a seven-day wear period, and minimizes skin cell loss. With 2480 3M Hi-Tack Silicone Adhesive, this is the second product to enter the 3M Hi-Tack Silicone Adhesive Portfolio in recent months. 2484 3M Hi-Tack Silicone Adhesive offers design engineers a product that satisfies the needs of both the latest in medical device design and the individuals who use them. It is gentle even on fragile skin.

Product Offerings:

• EcoStix Bio-PSA: The latex copolymer structure of the EcoStix® series of sugar-acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) utilizes EcoMer® technology. Both configurable resin grades and formulated grades are available as part of a two-tiered product offering. They are designed to be further formulated and combined in order to produce specific PSA qualities that are suited to the demands of the intended end-use. The formulated grades of EcoStix adhesives come in a variety of peel, tack, and shear qualities and are coater-ready. Some EcoStix grades' adhesive characteristics are made to react to particular environmental factors, including pH or temperature, and thus enable the adhesive to be removed without the use of additional caustic. This trait indicates a recycling-friendly PSA that is specially created to prevent additional
• CulminalTM Ultimate Performance modified methyl hydroxyethylcellulose: Used in high-end cementitious bioadhesive formulations, CulminalTM UP modified methyl hydroxyethylcellulose is a novel concept in modified methyl cellulose derivatives (e.g. tile adhesives, ETICS adhesives). The advantages of CulminalTM UP modified methyl hydroxyethylcellulose include quicker strength development, marginally higher tensile strength, excellent workability, and sag resistance, improved setting at relatively low temperatures, cost benefits because of the reduction or eradication of accelerators, and the chance to reformulate towards different binder types (such as CEM II) and/or levels.
