In addition, above average living standards and new product innovation are expected to propel the demand.
  • Asia Pacific accounted for the highest CAGR of 4.7% over the forecast period which can be traced to growing construction activities, mainly in economies such as China and India. Moreover, technological developments in Korea and Japan have spurred the growth of adhesives.
