Adhesives & Sealants Market will Surpass $120B by 2031 says a 2026 Mordor Intelligence Report

Global adhesives and sealants market growth is driven by expansion of modular construction, growing adoption of healthcare wearables, high-performance bonding solutions that support lightweighting in vehicles as well as automated e-commerce packaging.

Hyderabad, India, Jan. 20, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — According to Mordor Intelligence, the adhesives and sealants market is set to grow from USD 85.38 billion in 2025 to USD 90.45 billion in 2026 and reach USD 120.67 billion by 2031, registering a 5.9% CAGR. Stricter environmental policies, particularly in Europe, are pushing manufacturers toward low-VOC and bio-based formulations. Ongoing supply constraints in key raw materials such as isocyanates continue to affect pricing, encouraging producers to explore alternative and renewable feedstock options. 

Emerging Trends & Developments 

Rising Use of Advanced Bonding in Lightweight Vehicle Design 

Automakers, especially in the electric vehicle space, are increasingly turning to structural adhesives instead of traditional fastening methods. These materials help reduce vehicle weight, enhance safety, and enable the joining of mixed materials such as metals and composites. Adhesives also play a key role in battery systems by supporting thermal management and insulation, pushing manufacturers to adopt durable, flexible, and high-performance bonding technologies that can withstand harsh operating conditions. 

Online Retail Boom Driving Smarter Packaging Adhesives 

The rapid growth of e-commerce has placed new demands on packaging adhesives that can endure long shipping cycles and variable environmental conditions. Brands are moving toward high-performance solutions that ensure package integrity while also aligning with recyclability goals. At the same time, automated packaging lines favor adhesive systems that improve efficiency and reduce energy use, supporting consistent demand growth in this application area. 

Prefabricated Building Techniques Fueling Adhesive Demand in Asia-Pacific 

Shifts toward modular and prefabricated construction are reshaping material choices across the building sector. Fast-setting and weather-resistant adhesives are essential for assembling factory-made components and ensuring reliability during transport and installation. Expanding urban development programs across major Asian economies are further reinforcing the need for versatile bonding solutions suited to modern construction practices.
