Global Flock Adhesives Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Resin Type (Acrylic, Polyurethane, Epoxy Resin, and Others), By Application (Textiles, Automotive, Paper & Packaging, and Others) By Regional Outlook and Forecast, 2023 - 2030


The Global Flock Adhesives Market size is expected to reach $3.2 billion by 2030, rising at a market growth of 5.4% CAGR during the forecast period. In the year 2022, the market attained a volume of 715.61 Kilo Tonnes, experiencing a growth of 4.5% (2019-2022).

Flock adhesives are used for labeling applications in packaging various products, including food and beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and household goods. Consequently, the paper & packaging segment would generate approximately 20.4% share of the market by 2030. Also, Germany would utilize 21.35 kilo Tonnes of Acrylic resin by 2030. These adhesives enable the secure attachment of labels to package materials such as glass, plastic, metal, and paperboard. Flock adhesives offer excellent adhesion properties, ensuring labels remain affixed to packaging surfaces without peeling or lifting.

E-commerce shipments require packaging solutions that provide adequate protection against handling, transit, and environmental factors. Flock adhesives secure packaging materials such as corrugated cardboard, paperboard, and plastics, ensuring that parcels remain intact during transit. These adhesives enhance packaging security by preventing tampering, pilferage, and damage, thereby safeguarding the integrity of shipped products. Therefore, the market is expanding significantly due to the rapid shift towards e-commerce platforms.

Additionally, Flock adhesives are key in assembling displays and touchscreens in consumer electronics devices like smartphones, tablets, laptops, and monitors. These adhesives bond display components, such as LCD panels, touch sensors, and protective glass, providing secure attachment and alignment. As consumer demand for high-resolution displays and touchscreen functionality increases, the demand for flock adhesives in display assembly applications expands. Thus, because of the rising electronics and consumer electronics, the market is anticipated to increase significantly.

However, Manufacturers of flock adhesive may experience unforeseeable cost variations due to the volatility of raw material costs. Sudden increases in raw material prices can significantly raise production costs, affecting profit margins and financial stability. Manufacturers may struggle to forecast expenses accurately and plan budgets, leading to uncertainty in pricing and investment decisions. Manufacturers of flock adhesive can suffer supply chain disruptions due to fluctuations in raw material costs. Thus, raw material sourcing and price volatility can slow down the growth of the market.

By Resin Type Analysis

Based on resin type, the market is classified into acrylic, polyurethane, epoxy resin, and others. The polyurethane segment acquired a 29.4% revenue share in the market in 2022. Polyurethane-based flock adhesives offer flexibility and elasticity, allowing bonded assemblies to withstand mechanical stress, vibration, and movement without cracking or delamination. This flexibility is advantageous in applications where substrates experience dimensional changes or dynamic loads. Polyurethane-based flock adhesives typically offer fast curing times and rapid processing speeds, allowing for efficient production and assembly processes.

By Application Analysis

By application, the market is categorized into automotive, textiles, paper & packaging, and others. In 2022, the textile segment registered 42.21% revenue share in the market. In terms of volume, Textile segment utilized 308.56 kilo Tonnes of resin in 2022. Flock adhesives play a pivotal role in the textile sector by bonding flock fibers to various surfaces, enhancing fabric texture, and providing durability. These adhesives are applied in intricate patterns or designs, allowing for versatility in textile applications such as automotive upholstery, apparel embellishments, and home furnishings. These factors would drive the demand of flock adhesives in textile sector.

By Regional Analysis

Region-wise, the market is analysed across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and LAMEA. In 2022, the North America region acquired a 22.2% revenue share by generating the highest revenue share. North America is home to a significant automotive manufacturing sector, with the United States, Mexico, and Canada as major producers of vehicles and automotive components. The packaging industry in North America is experiencing growth driven by e-commerce, food and beverage consumption, and consumer goods packaging.
