The key driving factors for the structural adhesives market are the increasing demand for such materials in the footwear industry and their rising consumption in infrastructure projects. As a result, the value of the industry will display a 5.2% CAGR during 2019–2024 (forecast period), to advance from $11,677.9 million in 2018 to $15,683.0 million by 2024. Such materials are used to join substrates or components of structures that are under high physical stress for long periods.



Epoxy, acrylic, polyurethane, cyanoacrylate, and others are the categories of the market, based on type. Among these, during the historical period (2014–2018), the market was led by the acrylic category, due to the high peel strength and sheer of acrylic structural adhesives. This is why such adhesives can join plastic and metallic surfaces in footwear, woodwork, building & construction, and do-it-yourself (DIY) applications. The epoxy category is expected to witness the fastest growth during the forecast period, owing to their rising usage in end-use industries, especially for riveting and welding.

Under the technology segment, the divisions of the structural adhesives market are water-based, solvent-based, solid reactive, and others. The market has been dominated during the historical period by the solid reactive category, as these variants find widespread usage in the automotive industry for bonding aluminum and steel components. During the forecast period, the water-based category is predicted to advance the most rapidly, because such adhesives are free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are harmful to the environment and humans.

The growing infrastructure industry is the biggest driving factor for the structural adhesives market advance. Due to the population boom, the demand for houses, civic infrastructure, commercial spaces, and industrial settings is rising. This is driving construction activities around the globe, especially in China, the U.S., and India. Structural adhesives make the structures they are used on resistant to chemicals, heat, and humidity, which is why these materials are being widely used on bridges, buildings, railway infrastructure, and roads.
