Global polyurethane adhesives market to grow at a CAGR of 7.31% during the period 2017-2021.

One driver in the market is increasing demand for polyurethane adhesives by footwear industry. The rising demand for waterborne heat-activated adhesive solutions by the footwear industry has led manufacturers to focus on high-quality polyurethane adhesives. Covestro, a leading polyurethane adhesives manufacturer, offers a range of aqueous polyurethane dispersions known as Dispercoll U.

One trend in the market is increasing adoption of sustainable products. Rising emphasis on reducing VOC emissions and sustainability has led polyurethane adhesive manufacturers to develop new, environment-friendly products. These products reduce carbon footprint. Currently, the newer products must not only be of superior quality but also be sustainable and low cost. The growing demand from consumer applications is elevating the consumption of polyurethane adhesives in near future.

One challenge in the market is volatile prices of raw materials. Fluctuations in crude oil prices have an adverse impact on the price of raw material, thereby affecting the costs of polyurethane adhesives. Price of crude oil (per barrel) decreased at a rate of nearly 60% from 2015 to 2016.
