High-Strength Acrylic Adhesives Market Report 2026

The high-strength acrylic adhesives market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.44 billion in 2025 to $1.54 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to industrial assembly automation, demand for mechanical fastener replacement, electronics miniaturization, packaging bonding needs, acrylic polymer development.

The high-strength acrylic adhesives market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.02 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to electric vehicle production growth, advanced manufacturing adoption, renewable energy installations, high performance bonding demand, automation friendly adhesives. Major trends in the forecast period include rising demand for structural bonding solutions, growing use in lightweight automotive assemblies, expansion in electronics and electrical applications, increased adoption of fast curing adhesives, focus on multi substrate compatibility.

The growing emphasis on reducing carbon emissions is expected to drive the growth of the high-strength acrylic adhesives market moving forward. The global focus on cutting carbon emissions is primarily aimed at combating climate change and achieving international sustainability goals. Governments and industries are increasingly adopting green technologies to minimize environmental impact and ensure long-term ecological stability. The rising global temperatures and extreme weather events are pushing governments and businesses to reduce emissions and protect the environment. High-strength acrylic adhesives facilitate the bonding of lightweight composites and dissimilar materials without the need for heavy fasteners. They support eco-friendly designs in the automotive, construction, and electronics sectors, which is driving the adoption of adhesives. These adhesives help manufacturers meet sustainability targets by reducing energy consumption and emissions. For example, according to the Ministry of Environment, Forest, and Climate Change in India, the country updated its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) to target a 45% reduction in emission intensity, and aims to achieve 50% of its cumulative electric power installed capacity from non-fossil fuel sources by 2030. As such, the increased focus on reducing carbon emissions is a key driver of the high-strength acrylic adhesives market.

Leading companies in the high-strength acrylic adhesives market are focusing on developing advanced products such as toughened acrylic adhesives to enhance impact resistance, durability, and performance under extreme environmental conditions. Toughened acrylic adhesives are high-strength adhesives that are modified with elastomers to improve their impact resistance, flexibility, and durability for demanding applications. For instance, in January 2024, Permabond, a UK-based manufacturer of engineering adhesives, introduced TA4208 Black, a two-component, 1:1 ratio toughened acrylic adhesive designed for the composite materials sector. This high-viscosity, non-slumping formulation is ideal for vertical applications and gap filling. Its advanced surface adhesion technology allows bonding through oxide layers and oily surfaces, reducing the need for extensive surface preparation, a major advantage in high-speed production environments. TA4208 Black rapidly develops strength, achieving substantial peel and shear resistance within approximately 20 minutes post-application.

In September 2024, IPS Adhesives (IPSA), a US-based adhesives company, acquired acrylate and methyl methacrylate (MMA) adhesive technology from L&L Products for an undisclosed amount. With this acquisition, IPSA enhances its MMA-based product portfolio, enabling innovative solutions for lightweight bonding and the bonding of dissimilar materials across various industries, including transportation, construction, automotive, and marine. L&L Products is a US-based company known for developing and manufacturing high-strength structural adhesives, including acrylic-based systems.
