The global market size of polyurethane adhesives is expected to reach 50.164 billion yuan in 2025 and grow at a compound annual growth rate of 5.14% to 71.26 billion yuan in 2032

Polyurethane Adhesive is a type of adhesive mainly composed of Polyurethane Resin. It forms a high-strength and high-elasticity bonding layer through chemical reactions or physical curing, featuring excellent temperature resistance, chemical resistance, impact resistance and flexibility. It is widely used in automotive manufacturing, construction, packaging, textile and other fields. The carbamate groups in its molecular structure endow it with excellent bonding performance to a variety of materials, such as metals, plastics, rubbers, woods, etc., and it performs particularly well in scenarios where it needs to adapt to complex working conditions, such as vibration, temperature changes, and chemical corrosion.

 

The global market size of polyurethane adhesives will reach 50.164 billion yuan in 2025. The steady recovery and structural upgrading of the global manufacturing industry have injected strong impetus into the polyurethane adhesive market. In the automotive manufacturing sector, the electrification transformation has driven a sharp increase in the demand for automotive lightweighting. It is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 5.14% to 71.26 billion yuan by 2032.

 

The regional distribution of the polyurethane adhesive market is dominated by the Asia-Pacific region, with a global market share exceeding 50%. This is mainly attributed to the industrialization and urbanization processes in countries such as China and India, as well as the rapid development of industries like automobiles and construction. China is the world's largest market, accounting for over 60% of the share in the Asia-Pacific region. Its huge manufacturing base and policy support (such as "new infrastructure") continue to drive demand. The markets in Europe and North America are mature and have stable demand, mainly concentrated in the fields of automobiles, construction and high-end packaging. Enterprises pay more attention to the environmental friendliness and high performance of their products. The markets in the Middle East, Africa and Latin America are relatively small in scale, but with the development of infrastructure construction and manufacturing, the demand is showing a growth trend.
