Global Seam Sealing Tapes Market Research Report 2024-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2030

Seam Sealing Tape is simply an adhesive tape that is used on seams of clothing and other manufacturered products to prevent humidity and water penetration whilst adding strength to the products seam joint.

Market Overview:

The latest research study on the global Seam Sealing Tapes market finds that the global Seam Sealing Tapes market reached a value of USD 310.88 million in 2023. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 426.81 million by 2029, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.42% during the forecast period.

The numerous advantages of multi-layered seam sealing tapes-in terms of superior waterproofing, excellent adhesion and a wide range of applications—have contributed to the high growth of the multi-layered segment in the seam sealing tapes market. Its numerous applications include apparels, tents, tarpaulins, footwear, and backpacks, among others. The single-layered segment is projected to register lesser growth during the forecast period, owing to the limited applications of single-layered seam sealing tapes.

The product has superior performance and is widely used downstream

Seam sealing tape is used at the joint of the fabric to prevent the pinholes produced in the sewing process from leaking and leaking in actual use, and a transparent plastic waterproof layer is affixed to the pinholes of all fabrics by heating equipment. Compared to other sealing solutions, it has these advantages during use:

One big advantage is that the tape covers the raw edge of the fabric creating a nice, finished seam. This can make some projects easier because user can use a simpler “semi flat felled” seam to construct the project, rather than the trickier full flat felled seam which encloses the raw edge of the fabric. (In areas where strength is the primary concern, a full flat felled seam may still be the best option.)

Another advantage is that there isn’t the dry time that is associated with brush on sealers. User also avoid some of the downsides associated with brush on sealers, such as that they can be difficult to apply neatly, and dried sealer can attract sand and dirt.

In addition to improving the waterproof performance of the fabric, the use of seam sealing tape can also strengthen the reinforcement of shoes, boots, clothing, improve the sound insulation effect of tents, other decorative fabrics, etc., in addition, it can also be used in personal protective equipment, to provide users with a higher level of safety protection, so that there is no leakage at the seams and so on.

Region Overview:

China is projected to account for a considerable share of the Seam Sealing Tapes market and is expected to become the largest region by 2028.

Company Overview:

YETOM is one of the major players operating in the Seam Sealing Tapes market, holding a share of 20.32% in 2023.

YETOM is located in Jiangmen city, Guangdong Province in China, which was founded in 2003 and specialized in the research and development for polyurethane-based adhesive film technology companies.

Segmentation Overview:

Among different product types, 3-Layer segment is anticipated to contribute the largest market share in 2028.

3-Layer Similar to 2 layer seam sealing tapes but with a thicker and more heavy duty design that makes them ideal for use in more demanding environments such as military application, medical wear, the automotive industry (for the likes of car seat seam sealing and dashboards), dry and wet suits and PPE Clothing.

2-Layer A 2 layer seam sealing tape is commonly used to prevent water penetration over stitch seams and is commonly found in the likes of Waterproof jackets.

1-Layer Single layer seam sealing tapes are only activated by heat to weld onto PU coated fabrics.

Application Overview:

By application, the Apparels segment occupied the biggest share from 2018 to 2022.

Seam sealing tape is simply a type of tape used to coat fabrics (Apparels, Tents, Tarpaulins, Footwear, Backpacks, etc.). To prevent moisture and water penetration, while increasing the strength of the product joints. For example, outdoor clothing, such as waterproof jackets, fishing gear, etc. Sports clothing, waterproof boots and other footwear, camping tents, sleeping bags and rucksacks/backpacks, wet wetsuits, dry wetsuits and diving gear, military uniforms, backpacks, vests, helmets and other equipment, personal protective equipment including masks, robes, suits, etc. It can also be used to seal car seats.
