The global adhesive market has been dominated by building and construction segment and it is expected that this segment will continue to dominate the market till 2020. Due to urbanization and growth in middle class population the market is dependent on construction segment which will boost the growth, said the Ken research report.

Automotive assembly, transportation, personal care, packaging, labelling and electronics are included as industrial customers in the market. 3M, Arkema, Dow, H.B. Fuller and Henkel are the leading vendors in global adhesive and sealants market, it said.
