Why Is Food and Beverage Packaging Sector Creating High Demand for Acrylic Adhesives?

The surging use of low-tack adhesives (LTAs) in reclosable packaging solutions, due to their high-adhesion property, is fueling the production of packaging adhesives across the world. Moreover, the cost-effectiveness and better usability of LTAs are also fueling their adoption by packaging product manufacturers. Unlike zipper sales, LTAs are not required to be precisely aligned to be reclosed. Furthermore, these new types of adhesives do not collect crumbs, dust, or other product pieces like traditional packaging adhesives. 

Moreover, the large-scale consumption of adhesives in the food and beverage packaging sector, primarily on account of the increasing customer awareness regarding health, will also fuel the packaging adhesives market at a CAGR of 4.6% during 2020–2030. According to P&S Intelligence, the market was valued at $10,426.9 million in 2019 and it is projected to reach a revenue of $17,137.4 million by 2030. The usage of packaging adhesives in the food and beverage sector helps in maintaining the freshness and increasing the shelf-life of the products.

Geographically, Far East dominated the packaging adhesives market in the past and it is expected to maintain its dominance in the coming years as well. This can be attributed to the large-scale usage of packaging adhesives in the e-commerce, personal care, consumer good, and food and beverage industries of China. In addition, the flourishing e-commerce sector in China and Japan, on account of the convenience of direct product delivery at home, is propelling the demand for such materials in the region.

Thus, the rising shift toward LTAs and soaring concerns regarding health will amplify the usage of adhesives in packaging applications.
