During the projected period, the market for emulsion pressure-sensitive adhesives is estimated to rise at a CAGR of more than 4%. The rising usage of low-cost, flexible packaging aids is one of the primary reasons driving the market research.
With the focus shifting to bio-based PSAs, Europe's resurgent construction industry is expected to present an opportunity. Asia-Pacific led the global market, with the highest consumption in countries such as India, China, and others.
When compared to solvent-based pressure-sensitive adhesives, emulsion pressure-sensitive adhesives emit less volatile organic chemicals. Volatile organic molecules are hazardous to both the environment and human health. Furthermore, regulatory authorities such as the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the European Commission have strict laws in place regarding volatile organic compound emissions. For example, the European Commission's Directive 1999/13/EC regulates the emission of volatile organic compounds. The growing environmental concern and regulations are important factors driving the worldwide emulsion pressure-sensitive adhesives market's rise.
The worldwide emulsion pressure-sensitive adhesives market is expanding due to the rising demand for emulsion pressure-sensitive adhesives in labeling and packaging. The e-commerce packaging market was valued at US$ 21.43 billion in 2016 and is predicted to exceed US$ 33.89 billion by 2025, according to Coherent Market Insights. This expansion in the e-commerce packaging business is raising demand for a variety of packaging materials, including emulsion pressure-sensitive adhesives, and is driving worldwide market growth.
