Global Pressure Sensitive Tapes

Global Pressure Sensitive Tapes

Demand for pressure sensitive tapes worldwide is being impacted by a number of factors:  competition from water-based tape in e-commerce markets; increasing penetration of manufacturing and construction applications; and increasing focus on Asian markets. Carton sealing tape will continue to dominate global sales due to its integral role in packaging applications – particularly in the Asia/Pacific region. Double-sided tapes will see far faster growth, however, supported by increasing utilization in industrial applications. Packaging and shipping will remain by far the largest market for tapes through the forecast period. This vast segment will be supported by the fact that nearly every manufactured good is packaged in some way before entering distribution and retail channels.  This new study discusses how these factors will impact sales of tape products worldwide going forward.
