Category-wise Insights
Why are Cyanoacrylate Moisture Curing Adhesives in High Demand?
Cyanoacrylate moisture curing adhesives are expected to account for nearly 20% of global sales over the coming years, according to Fact.MR. As cyanoacrylates are known to be quick-acting, strong adhesives, their applications in the construction industry, as well as household applications, are significantly high.
Furthermore, their demand in woodworking applications is also noteworthy, further adding to its share in the global market. Cyanoacrylate moisture curing adhesives are ideal for use with nearly all materials, especially plastics and elastomers. They provide high tensile & shear strengths, as well as initial strength within seconds.
Will the Construction Industry Remain the Primary Beneficiary?
Demand for moisture curing adhesives remains highest in the construction industry, accounting for around 1/4th revenue share in the global market. Owing to its high resistance to moisture and high strength properties, the adoption of polyurethane will remain the highest in the construction industry.
High durability also makes moisture curing adhesives an important component used in interior and exterior development in the housing and construction industry. This is likely to influence the major strategies of leading market players in the coming decade.
Competitive Landscape
Key players involved in the market are rigorously investing in the development and launches of new products to gain a competitive advantage and expand their consumer base. Mergers & acquisitions along with diversification of product portfolios are key business strategies implemented by participants in the industry.
