Tackifier Industry Segmentation

Tackifiers are chemical compounds that are used in manufacturing adhesives to increase tack, the stickiness of the surface of the adhesive. They are low-molecular-weight compounds that have high glass transition temperatures. They find applications in several end-users such as building and construction, automotive, etc.

The tackifiers market is segmented by feedstock, form, type, application, end-user industry, and geography. By feedstock, the market is segmented into rosin resins, petroleum resins, and terpenes resins. By form, the market is segmented into solid, liquid, and resin dispersion. By type, the market is segmented into synthetic and natural. By application, the market is segmented into tapes and labels, assembly, bookbinding, footwear, leather and rubber articles, and other applications (profile wrapping, etc.). By end-user industry, the market is segmented into automotive, building and construction, non-wovens, packaging, footwear, and other end-user industries (pulp and paper, etc.). The report also covers the market size and forecasts for the market in 15 countries across the globe. 

For each segment, the market sizing and forecasts have been done on the basis of value (USD).

Tackifier Market Size Summary

The tackifier market is poised for steady growth over the forecast period, driven by increasing urban infrastructure development in emerging economies. The market, which experienced setbacks due to the COVID-19 pandemic, has rebounded to pre-pandemic levels and is expected to expand further. The building and construction sector is a significant end-user, with demand for pressure-sensitive and water-borne adhesives rising due to their essential role in various construction applications. However, the emergence of tackifier-free adhesives presents a challenge to market growth. The shift towards bio-based tackifiers is anticipated to offer new growth opportunities, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region, which currently holds the largest market share and is expected to maintain its dominance.

The Asia-Pacific region's economic improvements have bolstered consumer demand for electronics, automobiles, and textiles, further fueling the tackifier market. China, a major player in adhesive manufacturing and export, significantly contributes to the region's market share. The presence of leading adhesive companies in the region, such as Henkel AG & Company and H B Fuller Company, is set to enhance production capacities, thereby increasing tackifier consumption. Recent expansions, like Henkel's new facility in China and Pidilite's production of Jowat’s hot melt adhesive in India, underscore the region's growth trajectory. The ongoing construction projects in countries like Japan and India also support the market's expansion, indicating a robust outlook for the tackifier industry in the coming years.
