Laminating Adhesives Market Growth Tactics, Regional Analysis 

The global market size for laminating adhesives market reached USD 3.65 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to increase from USD 3.80 billion in 2024 to USD 5.53 billion by 2032, showing a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 4.7% during the forecast period.

Laminating adhesives are crucial for creating films with advanced functionalities by bonding multiple films together, including plastic film, aluminum foil, and paper, among others. These adhesives are cured using heat or a combination of heat and pressure, similar to hot melt adhesives. They offer excellent bonding, high-temperature resistance, and protection against environmental factors. Laminating adhesives cater to various surfaces and can be solvent-free or resistant to chemicals, UV rays, and humidity, withstanding temperatures up to 450°F. The COVID-19 pandemic impacted the market negatively due to reduced demand from sectors like food & beverage and electronics, disrupting supply chains and production.
