Description

According to the Market Statsville Group (MSG), the global hot melt adhesives market size is expected to grow from USD 8,271.2 million in 2021 to USD 14,883.6 million by 2030, at a CAGR of 4.7% from 2022 to 2030. Hot-melt adhesive (HMA), also known as hot glue, is a form of thermoplastic adhesive that is generally sold as solid cylindrical sticks of various diameters designed to be applied using a hot glue gun. Furthermore, the hot glue reduces the maintenance and installation costs for the users and enhances the user's do-it-yourself (DIY) application. Increasing awareness about these advantages will increase the adoption of hot melt adhesives in various industrial projects. So, it will surge the market in the forecast years.

Global Hot Melt Adhesives Market Definition

A hot-melt adhesive is a compound that sticks or bonds two items together. The hot-glue sticks can be stored for long periods with no other requirements. However, it requires some care that the user does not stick the parts together with excessive heating. Hot melt adhesive is applied at the correct temperature. If the adhesive is excessively hot, it may damage the surfaces or take too long to solidify. However, it requires some care that the user does not stick the parts together with excessive heating.

COVID-19 Impact on the Global Hot Melt Adhesives Market

The coronavirus pandemic has affected every industry. As a result of this pandemic, the chemical and materials industries are among those industries which are suffering from disruptions such as supply chain breaks, technology event cancellations, and office shutdowns. The pandemic had no significant effect on the raw materials supply, except for transportation delays. Hot melt adhesives were in great demand in the packaging industry, particularly in beverage packages and containers, food packaging, and many other uses. The post-pandemic period will bring more opportunities for different regions and market players.
