Sealants are used to fill cracks, offer a barrier to air, water, moisture, and seal joints. The market’s expansion is attributed to rapid urbanization and industrialization, particularly in the emerging economies. In the automotive sector, the transition towards lightweight and fuel-efficient vehicles has propelled the demand for high-performance sealants. These products are crucial for reducing vehicle weight and enhancing durability by providing a sealing solution. Technological advancements have led to the development of high-performance and efficient sealant formulations offering distinct properties. Furthermore, sustainability trends are influencing the sealants market, with manufacturers increasingly focusing on eco-friendly and low-volatile organic compound formulations. Regulatory authorities are implementing stringent environmental standards to encourage the production and utilization of green alternatives globally.

Based on type, the global sealants market is segmented into silicone sealants, polyurethane sealants, acrylic sealants, polysulfide sealants, butyl sealants, hybrid sealants, and others. The hybrid sealants segment is further broken down into silane modified polymer sealants, polyurethane modified acrylic sealants, and others. The silicone sealants segment held the largest share of the global sealants market in 2023. Silicone is resistant to chemicals, moisture, and weathering, and it can create strong adhesive bonds. Aquariums are often sealed with silicone sealants. Windows and frames are sealed together with silicone sealants as it is weather resistant. Silicone sealants are used as a bonding agent for car engine parts, such as a car gasket. In electronic devices, silicone sealants are used to seal sensors and cables into place. Silicone sealant is more flexible and long-lasting than other types, such as acrylic sealant.

In 2023, Asia Pacific held the largest revenue share of the global sealants market.
