Rising investments by Chinese government in construction projects such as railways, airports, etc. coupled with expansion of automotive manufacturing plants in the country is forecast to drive the adhesives market in China through 2020. In China, polyurethane polymer adhesives are witnessing the fastest growth among all the adhesive categories. Polyurethane adhesives are mainly used in automobile, assembly operations and footwear industries. Owing to their high elastomeric properties and durability, they are suitable for heavy duty applications. Further, these adhesives have strong resistance against chemical, moisture and heat resistance, making them ideal for wide application areas.

Growing adoption of eco-friendly furniture and greener packaging options for food is also driving demand for adhesives free from harmful VOC emissions. Moreover, growing consumption of adhesives from various end user industries is leading to adhesives manufacturers setting up new production facilities in the country and this trend is expected to continue through 2020. A majority of end user industries are shifting towards adhesives produced using water based formulating technology, as they are non-toxic and have high strength properties.

“China adhesives market will continue to exhibit promising growth over the next five years on account of increasing demand from various end user sectors such as automotive, construction, packaging, woodworking, etc. However, rising awareness levels among consumers has driven the shift towards use of eco-friendly adhesives. In addition, adoption of green adhesives due to health concerns related to VOC emissions, is leading to consumers switching from solvent based adhesives to solvent less adhesives,” said Mr. Karan Chechi, Research Director with TechSci Research, a research based global management consulting firm.
