Bookbinding adhesives Market Dynamics
Driver: Increase in demand for physical books
The pandemic had an odd influence on the book publishing industry. Closed bookstores and classrooms initially reduced the market sales, particularly of academic publications. After the pandemic, in most of the countries, educational institutions opened. This benefited the global bookbinding adhesive market.
Restraint: Availability of online resources for educational purpose
Advances in technology over the last few years, combined with the urgent need for remote learning during the COVID-19 pandemic, clearly impacted the way educational institute operates. Learning during COVID-19 will probably continue to change, how education is viewed in the long run. Easy, cheap, and fast availability of internet significantly impacted the physical book market.
Opportunity: Technological advancement
The Innovative hot-melt adhesives show outstanding results in terms of heat/cold resistance, and thermal stability. This innovative hot-melt adhesive has reduced the cost of bookbinding with better finish. Magazines & catalogs applications require smooth finish at competitive cost. This innovative hot -melt is solution for many such applications.
Challenge: Volatility in raw material prices
Parameters such as price and availability of raw materials are the key factors that determine the cost structure of products. Raw materials used in the adhesive industry include plastic resins, synthetic rubber, inorganic chemicals, and refined petroleum products. Most of these raw materials are petroleum-based derivatives and are vulnerable to fluctuations in commodity prices.
Hardcover & softcover books of the application is projected to register the second-highest CAGR during the forecast period.
Hardcover & softcover books demand is growing in the emerging nations such as China, India. Development in educational institutions and high gross enrolment ratio in higher education is driving the bookbinding adhesive market for hardcover & softcover books application. Higher education books requires good quality of binding and this will fuel and fuel their market growth throughout the forecast period.
The Polyurethane (PUR) segment of the chemistry is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
The polyurethane has excellent cohesive strength and flexibility. Polyurethane adhesives are available in variety of viscosity. They have good resilience at low temperatures but often lose strength after long-term exposure to temperatures above 150°C. the application of polyurethane includes hardcover & softcover books, magazines & catalogs, and print on demand. These applications are the factors to drive the market in the forecast period.
China is expected to account for the largest share of in bookbinding adhesive market during the forecast period, in terms of value.
In this report, the Asia pacific region is segmented into China, South Korea, Japan, India, Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, and Rest of Asia Pacific. The continuous rise in the manufacturing of products for consumption and also for exports is driving the demand for bookbinding adhesives in the region. China is an industry hub, with increasing demand for quality products, rising population, and growing end-use industries. The rapid growth of the economy, increasing innovation, and industry consolidations are expected to contribute to the high growth of the bookbinding adhesive market in the region.
