United States (US) Adhesives & Sealants Market Overview, 2027

"In recent years, the adhesives and sealants business in the United States has emerged as a vital and quickly developing industry. Adhesives and sealants have become indispensable for bonding, connecting, and sealing materials due to their wide range of uses in industries such as automotive, construction, packaging, and healthcare. The country's burgeoning manufacturing sector, technological improvements, and growing need for eco-friendly and high-performance adhesive solutions all contribute to the market's significant growth. Manufacturers are concentrating on developing new and environmentally friendly products as consumers prioritise sustainability, boosting market growth. This dynamic landscape encourages constant innovation and product development, ensuring a steady stream of cutting-edge adhesives and sealants tailored to meet evolving customer needs. With its robust industrial infrastructure, emphasis on research and development, and strong regulatory framework, the United States continues to foster a vibrant adhesives and sealants market that caters to a wide range of applications. In the adhesives and sealants sector, sustainability has emerged as a significant driving force. There is a growing need for eco-friendly, low-VOC (volatile organic compound) and solvent-free adhesive and sealant products as environmental awareness and legislation increase. Manufacturers are investing in R&D to develop sustainable alternatives that provide excellent performance while having a low environmental impact. According to a report titled ""UNITED STATES (US) Adhesive & Sealant Market Overview, 2027,"" published by Bonafide Research, adhesives and sealants are expected to grow at a significant rate during the forecast period. Among adhesives and sealants, adhesives have the majority of the market share. However, the sealant market is expected to grow at a healthier rate than adhesives during the forecast period. In adhesive formulation technology, water-based adhesives lead the market due to the fact that they possess a variety, flexibility, and economic practicality. Water-based adhesives set quickly and form powerful bonds that, unless exposed directly to excess water or moisture, remain strong for an extended period of time. During the forecast period, hot-melt adhesives are expected to grow at a lucrative rate due to the increasing use of polyester hot-melt adhesives in the textile and fabric industries. Moreover, the use of hot melt adhesive products in the dashboard of automotive vehicles is increasingly becoming popular. These products find applications in the dashboard, wherein they offer reduced vibrations coupled with greater insulation from the sound. The increased emphasis on providing soundproof rides is expected to drive product penetration in the automotive industry during the forecast period. In adhesives by application, paper, cardboard, and packaging hold the highest market share due to increasing online shopping with rising internet technologies and web applications. Moreover, the demand for cosmetics and food and beverage products is expected to grow due to the growing population, demand for quality products, urbanization, and consumers' inclination toward technology, hence, fuelling the demand for the packaging industry. During the forecast period, electrical and electronics are expected to grow at a significant rate due to increasing demand for the miniaturization/automation of mobile devices, touch screens, displays, and medical electronic systems. The consumption of electrical adhesives is increasing as the demand for these products grows. In sealants by resin type, silicone sealant is the most commonly used sealant in factors like bonding glass, ceramics, metals, plastic, concrete, and bricks. They are also used in aerospace and engineering. The main applications of silicone sealant are its construction properties and inertness. Because of increased urbanization, the demand for housing has increased, giving rise to the building and construction industry. Due to this, there is an increase in the use of sealants.

To preserve air and water quality, the EPA regulates the use and disposal of adhesives and sealants. To reduce dangerous air pollutants, it limits the amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) generated by these items. Manufacturers must adhere to the EPA's VOC standards in a variety of categories, including architectural coatings, vehicle refinishing, and consumer products. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) create workplace safety guidelines to protect employees who operate with adhesives and sealants. It covers chemical dangers, ventilation requirements, personal protective equipment (PPE), labelling, and handling practises. Employers are responsible for ensuring that OSHA requirements are followed in order to ensure a safe working environment. The EPA administers the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), which governs the manufacture, import, processing, distribution, and use of chemicals, including adhesives and sealants. It requires manufacturers to submit premanufacture notices for new chemicals and regulates the use of existing chemicals. TSCA aims to assess and manage potential risks associated with chemical substances. The application of adhesives and sealants releases large amounts of chemical gases that are considered harmful and dangerous when inhaled. The regulations on their use are becoming stricter. In addition, the growing awareness of consumers about health and the environment has become a major concern for manufacturers. These factors may act as restraints for the growth of the adhesives and sealants market. The global healthcare sector has expanded significantly over the past few years. As a result, all associated industries flourished, including medical adhesives. Medical adhesives have thrived as new treatments and technologies have emerged. On the other hand, the expanding healthcare industry will benefit and drive the growth of the medical adhesives market.

Covid 19 The COVID-19 outbreak has disrupted most supply chains across the country. Certain adhesives have witnessed strong demand due to their applications in the paper and packaging industries as well as healthcare. The shutting down of automotive companies where adhesives and sealants are used as a prime bonding material for hoods, grills, and interior panels, has temporarily hampered the growth of the adhesives and sealants market. Furthermore, falling consumer income and international travel restrictions led to a decrease in demand for adhesives and sealants.
