Global UV Adhesive Market – Industry Trends and Forecast to 2030

Global UV Adhesive Market, By Product Type (Epoxy, Acrylic, Cyanoacrylate, Silicone, Polyurethane), Application (Glass Bonding, Electronics, Packaging & Laminating, Medical & Pharmaceuticals, Industrial Application), End- Users (Medical, Electronics, Transportation, Industrial Assembly) – Industry Trends and Forecast to 2030.

UV Adhesive Market Analysis and Size

One kind of radiation-curable adhesive is UV adhesives, which harden fast when exposed to electromagnetic radiation, which also includes visible light and electron beams. Excellent adherence is offered by UV adhesives to a range of materials, including paper, plastic, metal, and wood. During application, they produce little to no emissions of volatile organic compounds.

Data Bridge Market Research analyses that the UV adhesive market which was USD 1.35 billion in 2022, would rocket up to USD 2.74 billion by 2030, and is expected to undergo a CAGR of 9.3% during the forecast period. “Acrylic” dominates the product type segment of the UV adhesive market because of having faster cure speed, being less sensitive to surface preparation, and bonding more types of materials. In addition to the insights on market scenarios such as market value, growth rate, segmentation, geographical coverage, and major players, the market reports curated by the Data Bridge Market Research also include in-depth expert analysis, geographically represented company-wise production and capacity, network layouts of distributors and partners, detailed and updated price trend analysis and deficit analysis of supply chain and demand.

UV Adhesive Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

UV adhesives are often used to align and place pieces precisely. These substances can be used for either temporary or structural bonding. The comparable and dissimilar substrates that UV cure adhesives may bond to include metals, rubbers, glass, ceramics, and polymers like polycarbonates, acrylics, and phenolics. The optical clarity and translucency, dimensional stability, minimal shrinkage, and resistance to chemicals, fuels, solvents, and moisture are all features of certain grades. To satisfy strict end user requirements, UV adhesives offer protection against environmental deterioration from outside weathering.

Global UV Adhesive Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Increasing demand for and use of UV adhesives

The market is expanding as a result of rising demand for UV adhesives because of its quick drying times, strong bonds, and reduced VOC emissions. The market is anticipated to increase as a result of rising environmental concerns and more stringent VOC emission regulations. The demand for UV Adhesives among customers is anticipated to be driven by the growing awareness of the damaging effects of UV radiation on human skin. The market for UV adhesives is anticipated to increase as solar roofs and other eco-friendly products become more widely used.

• The proliferation of new adhesive technologies

One of the key reasons for this increase in demand for UV-resistant adhesives is their use in electronic components and other sensitive areas. These adhesives are also used in various applications, such as roofing, boatbuilding, and window glazing. UV Adhesive products have been approved for use in contact lenses and medical implants, respectively. These applications are expected to drive the growth of the UV Adhesive market over the next several years.

Opportunities

• Increasing demand from industrial companies for high-tech machinery and equipment

Furthermore, the development of technology and the rise in the demand for electronic gadgets to meet growing market demand, industrial applications of improved and adopted LED UV lamps, and extend profitable opportunities to the market players from 2023 to 2030. Additionally, increasing demand from industrial companies for high-tech machinery and equipment will further expand the future growth of the UV adhesive market. 

Restraints/Challenges

• Simple access to affordable and efficient substitute adhesives

The expansion of the market is anticipated to be constrained by the simple availability of effective alternative adhesives at cheap prices. UV adhesives may be replaced with a variety of inexpensive substitutes that are readily accessible on the market. This element is impeding market expansion.  Since UV adhesives are still relatively new and in their infancy on the market, there is a lack of knowledge about them in developing countries, which is having a significant impact on demand.
