Thailand's Automotive industry having a significant role in the overall growth of adhesive's demand in the country
- The consumption of adhesives declined in 2020 by about 11.6% compared to 2019 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which severely affected the consumption of adhesives in Thailand owing to the closedown of the manufacturing sites and reduction in demand. The lockdown in the country for nearly three months resulted in supply chain disruptions and labor shortages. However, consumption registered growth in 2021 with a positive growth rate of about 10% due to steady demand from the manufacturing sector.
- Adhesives are majorly consumed in the packaging industry in the country owing to their importance in bonding plastics, metals, and paper and cardboard packaging applications. Water-borne adhesives are highly consumed in the industry because of their cheaper cost and high bonding strength, which is required in these applications. Nearly 26 thousand tons of water-borne adhesives were consumed in the Thai packaging industry in 2021. Solvent-borne adhesives are the fastest-growing technology in the packaging industry, and the segment is expected to register a CAGR of 2.37% from 2022 to 2028.
- The automotive industry is the second-largest consumer of adhesives in Thailand. The automotive adhesives market grew by 16.62% in 2021, as the country's total vehicle manufacturing capacity reached 1.68 million units, up by 18% from the previous year. The rising demand for Thailand's automotive exports in the international market is expected to drive the demand for automotive adhesives over the coming years. The automotive export value reached USD 41.43 billion in 2021.
Thailand Adhesives Market Trends
Growing demand for plastic packaging in food, cosmetics, and other industries will propel the packaging industry
- Thailand registered a GDP of USD 7,450 per capita with a growth rate of 3.3% Y-O-Y in 2022. The packaging industry contributes a share of around 1.91 of the country's GDP. Trade exchange, employment, labor charges, government policy support, etc., affect the Thai packaging industry.
- The country observed an economic slowdown in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Production volume declined by 4.74% in the same year compared to 2019. This happened due to supply chain disruptions, labor shortages, and a lockdown in the country for nearly three months. However, because of economic recovery in the country in line with international borders being opened in 2021, the regular supply of raw materials began for production, which increased by 7,900 ton in 2021.
- Thailand is one of the major manufacturing countries in the global plastic packaging market. The plastic packaging industry reaches USD 5 billion annually, the highest among other types of packaging. Around 28% of the country's plastic production is used in plastic packaging products. This packaging is majorly used in food, healthcare, cosmetics, and many other types of products in Thailand.
- The usage of bioplastics in the packaging industry of Thailand is increasing. The government has also prioritized the bioplastic industry's development through policies such as the Plastic Waste Management Roadmap (2018-2030). GC and Cargill are two multinational biopolymer companies that have announced plans to invest USD 20 billion in establishing new bioplastic plants in Thailand.
Nearly 50.1% share of the overall automotive production among the ASEAN countries is likely to drive the industry in Thailand

Keyword | Definition |
---|---|
Hot-melt Adhesive | Hot melt adhesives are generally 100% solid formulations, based on thermoplastic polymers. They are solid at room temperature and are activated upon heating above their softening point, at which stage they are liquid, and hence, can be processed. |
Reactive Adhesive | A reactive adhesive is made up of monomers that react in the adhesive curing process and do not evaporate from the film during use. Instead, these volatile components become chemically incorporated into the adhesive. |
Solvent-borne Adhesive | Solvent-borne adhesives are mixtures of solvents and thermoplastic, or slightly cross-linked polymers, such as polychloroprene, polyurethane, acrylic, silicone, and natural and synthetic rubbers (elastomers). |
Water-borne Adhesive | Water-borne adhesives use water as a carrier or diluting medium to disperse a resin. They are set by allowing the water to evaporate or be absorbed by the substrate. These adhesives are compounded with water as a diluent, rather than a volatile organic solvent. |
UV Cured Adhesive | UV curing adhesives induce curing and create a permanent bond without heating by using ultraviolet (UV) light or other radiation sources. An aggregation of monomers and oligomers is cured or polymerized by ultraviolet (UV) or visible light in a UV adhesive. Because UV is a radiating energy source, UV adhesives are often referred to as radiation curing or rad-cure adhesives. |
Heat-resistant Adhesive | Heat-resistant Adhesives refer to those that do not break down under high temperatures. One aspect of a complicated system of circumstances is the adhesive's capacity to withstand disintegration brought on by high temperatures. As the temperature rises, adhesives may liquefy. They can withstand stresses resulting from differing coefficients of expansion and contraction, which might be an additional advantage. |
Reshoring | Reshoring is the practice of moving commodity production and manufacturing back to the nation where the business was founded. Onshoring, inshoring, and back shoring are further terms used. Offshoring, the practice of producing items abroad to lower labor and manufacturing costs, is the opposite of this. |
Oleochemicals | Oleochemicals are compounds produced from biological oils or fats. They resemble petrochemicals, which are substances made from petroleum. The oleochemical business is built on the hydrolysis of oils or fats. |
Nonporous Materials | Nonporous materials are substances that do not permit the passage of liquid or air. Nonporous materials are those that are not porous, such as glass, plastic, metal, and varnished wood. Since no air can get through, less airflow is required to raise these materials, negating the requirement for high airflow. |
EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement | A trade agreement and an investment protection agreement were concluded between the European Union and Vietnam on June 30, 2019. |
VOC content | Compounds with limited solubility in water and high vapor pressure are known as Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). Many VOCs are human-made chemicals that are used and produced in the manufacture of paints, pharmaceuticals, and refrigerants. |
Emulsion Polymerization | Emulsion polymerization is a method of producing polymers or connected groups of smaller chemical chains known as monomers, in a water solution. The method is often used to make water-based paints, adhesives, and varnishes, in which the water stays with the polymer and is marketed as a liquid product. |
2025 National Packaging Targets | In 2018, the Australian Environment Ministry set the following 2025 National Packaging Targets: 100% of the packaging must be reusable, recyclable, or compostable by 2025, 70% of plastic packaging must be recycled or composted by 2025, 50% of average recycled content must be included in packaging by 2025, and problematic and unnecessary single-use plastic packaging must be phased out by 2025. |
Russian Government’s Import Substitution Policy | The Western sanctions suspended the distribution of several high-tech items to Russia, including those required by the raw material export sectors and the military-industrial complex. In response, the government launched an "import substitution" scheme, appointing a special commission to oversee its implementation in early 2015. |
Paper Substrate | Paper substrates are paper sheets, reels, or boards with a base weight of up to 400 g/m2 that has not been converted, printed or otherwise altered. |
Insulation Material | A material that inhibits or blocks heat, sound, or electrical transmission is known as Insulation Material. The variety of insulation materials includes thick fibers like fiberglass, rock and slag wool, cellulose, and natural fibers as well as stiff foam boards and sleek foils. |
Thermal Shock | A temperature change known as thermal shock generates stress in a material. It commonly results in material breakdown and is especially prevalent in brittle materials like ceramics. When there is a quick temperature change, either from hot to cold or vice versa, this process occurs abruptly. It occurs more frequently in materials with poor heat conductivity and insufficient structural integrity. |
