Silicone PSA is estimated to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Silicone PSAs consist of silicone polymers and are widely used in specific industrial applications, such as medical, solar and wind energy, heavy machinery and aerospace. It is used in the form of masking tapes, splicing, process tapes, and high-performance insulation laminates. The consumer goods industry is a huge market for silicone PSAs. These adhesives can maintain adhesion over a larger temperature range and possess ability to adhere to difficult surfaces. Silicone PSAs represent a small part of the total PSAs market and serve niche markets with a vast range of applications and end-use industries such as automotive & transportation and renewable energy.


Hot melt technology is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Hot melt technology is mainly used in packaging and electrical, electronics & telecommunication industries. They are solvent-less PSAs. With advanced automation, they can be used conveniently. This technology holds superior manufacturing flexibility when compared with water-based or solvent-based PSAs. Hot-melt PSAs are used in sealing food & beverage products, in adhesion of integrated circuits, and other packaging applications. These are extensively used in the FMCG sector in the packaging and bonding of consumer goods.


Pressure sensitive adhesives are adhesives with special formulations, which offer properties, such as viscosity, elasticity, peel strength, cohesive strength, adhesive strength, shear resistance, and resistance to aging, chemicals, and humidity. They adhere well on the surface by making bonds when adequate pressure is applied. Emerging trends of bio-based pressure sensitive adhesives and advancement in PSA tapes technology have provided an opportunity for the growth of the market. However, the volatility in raw material prices and stringent regulations reshaping the pressure sensitive adhesives market are hampering its growth.


The key players of the pressure sensitive adhesives market include Henkel AG & Company KGAA (Germany), The Dow Chemical Company (US), Avery Dennison Corporation (US), H.B. Fuller (US), 3M Company (US), Arkema Group (France), Sika AG (Switzerland), Scapa Group PLC (UK), and Ashland Inc., (US) are the leading players operating in the pressure sensitive adhesives market. Mergers & acquisitions, investments & expansions, and new product development have been the major strategies adopted by the key players between 2017 and 2020, which helped them broaden their customer base.
