The Automotive Adhesives & Sealants Market has become one of the most fashion-driven divisions in the automobile domain at a very fast rate. One of them is that there is an increased demand for weightless materials in car manufacturing. Auto makers aim at better fuel efficiency while reducing emissions; hence they are increasingly adopting lighter motor vehicle structural components.
Another key factor driving market growth is increasing adoption rates of electric vehicles (EVs). Inherent challenges are faced by this segment as a result of the escalating global production levels of electric cars pursuing sustainable transportation. EVs often require different design and manufacturing specifications than traditional internal combustion engine vehicles do. Some areas that need to be addressed by adhesives/sealants designed specifically for use in electric vehicles include thermal management or vibration resistance.
Also, greater complexity in vehicle design coupled with advanced safety features has boosted demand for premium adhesives and sealants. Car manufacturers employ state-of-the-art technologies or enhanced security systems into their cars thus making it necessary for effective bonding solutions. They no longer provide just structural integrity alone but also play a major role towards safety/performance due to modern adhesives.
Moreover, eco-friendly bio-based adhesive/ sealant products have been on the rise within the global motorcar sector particularly due to growing worldwide advocacy on sustainable development. Manufacturers are now considering alternatives that cause less harm to environment yet maintain performance levels. Some leading organizations are now emphasizing on eco-friendly processes for automobile supply chains as depicted by the shift to environmental friendly solutions.
Additionally, notable changes have been witnessed in the aftermarket segment of automotive adhesives and sealants market. As the number of vehicles on roads increase, so does the need for maintenance and repair purposes. Manufacturers can produce adhesives/sealant targeting repairs in the aftermarket. This area will greatly influence overall market dynamics since customers are becoming more conscious about their cars’ life cycle and performance.
Automotive Adhesives Sealants Market Highlights:
Automotive Adhesives and Sealants Market OverviewÂ
Automotive Adhesives & Sealants Market is projected to be worth USD 11,645.8 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 6.11% during the forecast period (2022 - 2030). Adhesives, often known as glue, cement, mucilage, or paste, are any organic or inorganic chemical compound that is applied to one or both of the surfaces to be brought together. Adhesives can be found in nature or synthesized artificially. Over binding procedures such as thermal bonding, mechanical fastening, sewing, and others, the application or usage of adhesives confers various advantages to the finished product. Apart from that, some of the most important qualities of these adhesives include their capacity to effectively distribute stress throughout the joint, bind diverse types of materials together, and improve the end product's design flexibility. Unlike adhesives, sealants are a material that is used to prevent liquids from passing through joints or gaps in the structure. Depending on the type, they can be permanent or temporary, weak or robust, flexible or rigid. Some sealants, referred to as structural sealants or adhesive-sealants, have adhesive properties. Automotive adhesives and sealants are rapidly being used in a variety of applications, including interior, exterior, under-the-hood parts, and embedded systems, among others.
