Some highlights from the article follow:
These market leaders controlled more than half of the adhesives
market in 1999.
The Electronic Adhesives market is experiencing double-digit growth.
The global adhesives industry is experiencing a period of
consolidation with large companies targeting the smaller, niche areas
traditionally reserved for the smaller companies, as growth rates of
the traditional, large-end user markets begin to slow.
The specialty adhesive market, such as medical, electronic,
automotive and pressure-sensitive adhesive labels, is experiencing
rapid growth.
“According to World Adhesives File 2000-2005, the leading handful of
adhesives suppliers, including pressure sensitive companies, already
controlled almost half the global market in 1999. Henkel leads the way
with an estimated 12% global market share, which will probably
increase to around 14% with the purchase of Dexter’s adhesives
interests. Pressure sensitive suppliers 3M and Avery Dennison are
ranked second and third, with 9% and 7% shares respectively, followed
jointly by National Starch and H.B. Fuller — both at 6%. The newly
enlarged Atofina and Rohm and Haas follow closely behind.”

Adhesive end-market leaders:
Packaging is the market leader.
“The Rauch Guide to the U.S. Adhesives and Sealants Industry, Third
Edition, offered by Impact Marketing Consultants, Manchester Center,
Vt., says that of the eight major end-use markets studied, packaging
dominates with 28% of the market. By end use, electrical/electronic
and medical/dental applications will lead the growth, but packaging
will remain the leading market.” Read “Packaging Drives Demand for

exceed 400,000 metric tons in 2006)
Consumer and Other - 15%
Nonwovens – 10%
Global demand for Emulsion Polymers in General-Purpose Adhesives was

Global Market Demand for Adhesives
“North America and Western Europe accounted for more than half of
global adhesives demand in 1999, although annual gains in both of
these mature markets will lag the global average. However, suppliers
in these regions have been at the forefront of development efforts
aimed at improving the environmental compatibility of their offerings,
including the greater use of hot melts and emulsion adhesives. The
market's strongest annual gains will arise in Asia, particularly
China… Finally, the turnaround projected for "Other Regions" is
attributable to a modest recovery in Eastern Europe, which supports
small but expanding adhesives markets in the Czech Republic, Hungary
and Poland, as well as solid gains in Latin America.
