Bookbinding Adhesives Market- Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2018-2028
Segmented By Technology (Emulsion-based, Hot Melt), By Chemistry (Polyvinyl Acetate, Ethylene Vinyl Acetate, Polyurethane, Others), By Application (Hardcover and Softcover Books, Magazines and Catalogue, Print on Demand, Others), By Region and Competition
Global Bookbinding Adhesives market is anticipated to grow significantly through 2028 due to the growing demand for hardcover & softcover books. In 2022, China recorded a 12.4 % of retail sales growth of books during the first three quarters.
Key factors impacting the market expansion include a quick rise in the number of bookbinding adhesive applications from a variety of applications, including print-on-demand, magazines, catalogs, hardcover and softcover books, and many others. In the upcoming years, rising government-favorable laws and significant investments in cutting-edge Hot Melt Adhesives (HMAs) by both commercial and governmental organizations worldwide are also projected to have a beneficial impact on market demand and growth.
Growing Demand for Hardcover & Softcover Books
Major factors driving the growth and demand of the segment market include the rapidly increasing demand for physical books in several emerging countries, including China and India, as well as the expansion of educational institutions and the high gross enrollment ratio in the higher education sector. Additionally, the demand for bookbinding adhesives is projected to increase significantly due to the continued development in the sales of physical books across the world.
For instance, WordsRated estimates that 751 million units of books were sold globally in 2020. Therefore, this segment will dominate the growth of Global Bookbinding Adhesives market in the upcoming years.
Hot Melt Will Continue to Be the Key Technology
Hot melt adhesives provide a wide range of adhesion to surfaces and materials, including papers, porcelain, cloth, cardboard, and plastics. This makes them ideal for many different applications, including bookbinding and do-it-yourself projects. In addition to pellets, slugs, and blocks for bulk application, hot-melt adhesives may also be produced in stick and continuous rope forms for heated gun applications. Additionally, the demand and growth are being fueled by the increasing use of plant-based hot melt adhesives, particularly in developed countries like Germany, the U.S., France, and the U.K., due to their high sustainability.
For instance, in June 2022, Henkel enhanced its production capacity in Mexico by introducing a new plant for hot melt adhesives in Guadalupe, Nuevo Leon.
H.B. Fuller introduced a metallocene hot melt adhesives range of solutions for bookbinding applications in 2020.
Thus, with the increasing demand for hot melt adhesives, Global Bookbinding Adhesives market is anticipated to witness substantial growth during the projected period.
Rising Demand for Polyurethane Adhesive
Polyurethane adhesive possesses various benefits, such as great flexibility, outstanding cohesive strength, and availability in a range of viscosities, due to which it gains acceptance and adoption at a rapid rate. Additionally, it is widely utilized in the manufacturing of hardcover and softcover books, periodicals, and catalogs, as well as print-on-demand, which is projected to have a favorable influence on the market in the near future. It also has high durability at low temperatures.
For instance, according to the Adhesive and Sealant Council (ASC), Polyurethane Adhesives have excellent properties which solve bookbinding problems.
These factors are anticipated to increase the demand for polyurethanes resulting in a driven Global Bookbinding Adhesives Market in the forecast years.
