What have been the primary factors driving the structural adhesives market’s growth?
The rising construction activities are expected to propel the growth of the structural adhesives market going forward. Construction activities involve the planning, designing, and building structures such as residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects. Construction activities are rising for several reasons, including urbanization, government initiatives, infrastructure projects, and population growth. Structural adhesives enhance the durability and strength of materials, making them ideal for modern construction applications. Their ability to bond diverse substrates efficiently supports the growing demand for faster, more reliable building solutions in expanding construction activities. For instance, in June 2024, according to TST Europe, a Switzerland-based manufacturer specializing in quick-release couplings and coupling systems, total construction spending in the U.S. reached $1.98 trillion in 2023, reflecting a 7.4% increase from the previous year. The number of construction businesses in the U.S. stood at approximately 745,000 as of 2023. Therefore, the rising construction activities are driving the growth of the structural adhesives market.
