The

prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry
experts. The report covers the Americas, APAC, and EMEA; it also covers
the market landscape and its growth prospects in the coming years. The
report includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.
With
the recent increased demand for hot-melt adhesives and sealants from the
budding construction industry in APAC, especially in China, the
consumption trend has started shifting toward SIS. This is acting as a
major positive trend for the market, as SIS is costlier in comparison to
SBS and is not suffering from the challenge of oversupply. With the
adhesives and sealants market in China, the major consumer in the global
adhesives and sealants market in 2014, expected to witness rapid growth
during the forecast period, this trend will continue during the coming
years.
According to the report, while the demand for SBC and
its derivatives from the emerging economies in APAC and South America
has increased at a constant rate in recent years, the manufacturers in
the market are faced with the growing problem of the nearly saturated
condition of the SBC and its derivatives markets in the developed
countries in North America and Europe, along with Japan. As a result,
the players in the market have started focusing on the development and
introduction of new and advanced low-cost SBC-based products, such as
bio-based SBCs and low-styrene styrenic copolymers.
Further,
the report states that constant fluctuations in the prices of raw
materials used in the manufacture of SBC and its derivatives pose a
challenge to manufacturers of SBC and its derivatives.
