Automotive Adhesives Markets: PU, Epoxy, Acrylic, Silicone, SMP, MMA - Global Forecast to 2026 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Global Automotive Adhesives Market by Resin Type (PU, Epoxy, Acrylic, Silicone, SMP, MMA), Application (Body In White, Paint Shop, Assembly, Powertrain), Vehicle Type (Passenger Cars, LCVS, Trucks, Buses, Aftermarkets), & Region - Forecast to 2026" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The automotive adhesives market is projected to grow from USD 6.6 billion in 2020 to USD 9.3 billion, at a CAGR of 5.9% between 2021 and 2026.

The growing trend for lightweight and low carbon-emitting vehicles and the high demand for automotive adhesives from APAC are the drivers in the market. The major growth opportunities in the automotive adhesives market are in India, China, Brazil, Mexico, and other emerging economies. adhesives improve the aesthetic appeal of end products as bolts, rivets, and welds are not required to be used, and thus making these viable for numerous applications involving assembly line, body in white and others.

SMP is the fastest-growing resin type of the automotive adhesives market.

Silane-modified polymer adhesives have a smaller market share compared to other types. However, the market for this segment is projected to grow at the highest rate due to stringent environmental regulations on other adhesives in the market. These regulations prohibit the use of highly toxic solvents which have VOC emissions. As SMP adhesives are odorless, free of isocyanates and solvents, and emit no VOCs, their demand is expected to increase. The automotive & transportation industry continuously demands more advanced and improved bonding adhesives that offer excellent adhesion, superior durability, chemical & temperature resistance, and low shrinkage.

Passenger cars segment is projected to be the fastest-growing automotive adhesives market.

The passenger cars segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period, 2021 to 2026. In the coming future, younger generations will be a significant driver in the development of more sustainable and convenient modes of commute. The future is expected to be ruled by passenger cars which may be electric, autonomous, and shared mobility, globally. This is expected to drive the market for the passenger cars segment.
