Summary

The global specialty adhesives market size reached USD 4.46 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 5.72 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 2.66% during 2025-2033. The increasing demand for electric vehicles (EVs), the rising construction activities, and the growing preferences for ready-to-eat (RTE) food products represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Specialty adhesives produce strong bonds that exhibit excellent solvent, water, and temperature resistance. They also offer excellent peel strength, superior durability, and toughness and comprise polyurethane, polypropylene, acetal, polyesters, elastomers, epoxy, methyl methacrylate, and silicone resins to meet specific requirements. They are utilized in electric insulation, synthetic turf installations, and foaming compounds due to their rapid cure and optical clarity properties. They are also used as waterproofing and sealing agents to prevent oxidation and eliminate the effect of self-loosening caused by dynamic loads. Specialty adhesives are used in the manufacturing of personal care products, such as diapers, adult incontinence products, and feminine hygiene products. Besides this, they also find applications in the aerospace, marine, transportation, paper, energy, and electronic industries worldwide.

Specialty adhesives are employed in the automotive sector to manufacture lightweight components in automobiles for reducing their weight and offering higher efficiency. They improve the versatility and strength, prevent galvanic corrosion, and maintain aesthetic appeal. This, coupled with the increasing demand for electric vehicles (EVs) to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases, represents one of the major factors strengthening the market growth around the world. Moreover, specialty adhesives are used in the construction industry for flooring, waterproofing, and roofing. The rising construction of residential, commercial, and industrial spaces is also contributing to the market growth. Additionally, the growing adoption of specialty adhesives in numerous medical devices, such as tapes and robes, on account of the increasing number of surgical procedures is influencing the market positively. They are also used to seal medical equipment for maintaining the sterility of the products and protect the medicines from bacterial contamination. This, along with the surging prevalence of chronic diseases among the masses and the rising number of fatal road accidents, is resulting in severe injuries and favoring the growth of the market. Apart from this, specialty adhesives find application in the packaging industry for packing of numerous food products and drinks. This, in confluence with the growing preferences for ready-to-eat (RTE) food products on account of busy lifestyles and the expanding purchasing power of individuals, is creating a positive outlook for the market.
