Label Adhesive Market – By Technology 

Hot melt technology dominated the label adhesive market in 2021. The growing demand for this technology is attributed to the robust properties provided by it to the adhesive labels compared to other technologies. Holt melt technology doesn’t need any dispersing agent like technologies with solvents and also it helps in limiting waste and emissions of volatile chemicals. Moreover, the adhesives produced through this technology dry quickly and offer strong adhesiveness, allowing for precise positioning of the labels. Owing to such robust qualities, market players are focusing on the expansion of the hot-melt technology portfolio. For instance, in August 2021, US-based Avery Dennison launched a new hot melt adhesive for product labels in sustainable packaging solutions. The company got validation of biopreferred certification from the USDA for this new hot melt adhesive for labelling purposes. Such developments with the help of hot melt technology will increase its demand in the forecast period.

Synthetic substrates can be used for both indoor and outdoor applications with exposure to different harsh conditions compared to their natural counterparts. Owing to these robust properties, market players are engaging in the higher development of synthetic substrates for adhesive label applications. For instance, in April 2020, Finland-based global supplier of label materials UPM Raflatac launched an innovative polypropylene (PP) label developed from post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic. Such growing developments of synthetic substrates will increase their demand in the label adhesive market in the forecast period. The natural substrate segment is projected to witness significant demand in the forecast period. 

Label Adhesive Market – By End Use Industry

The food and beverage industry dominated the label adhesive market in 2021 and is growing at a CAGR of 6.1% in the forecast period. The high demand for label adhesive is attributed to the increasing innovations taking place in the packaging solutions for food and beverages. Market players are amplifying the adhesive label’s portfolio accordingly to meet the increasing demand from packaging in the food and beverage industry. For instance, in November 2021, UPM Raflatac introduced thermal paper labels made with 100% recycled fibers designed for labelling needs in the food sector. Similarly, in September 2019, Lecta introduced new hot melt adhesives (Adestor HM100 and Adestor HM300) for labelling purposes in the food sector. Such massive developments of label adhesive for the food and beverage industry will drive the growth of the label adhesive market in the forecast period.
