The Acrylic segment is expected to grow at a
fastest CAGR of 9.0% during the forecast period in the Automotive Adhesive
Tapes Market. Adhesive tapes are widely used in the automotive
industry for acoustic applications such as absorption pads in doors, trunk
absorption pads, headline absorbers and window trim. It also provides surface
protection and gasket sealing. Acrylic is one of the most commonly used
material in adhesive tapes as it has better flexibility and ductility. The
backing material used in this adhesive tape are ethylene-vinyl acetate, polyvinylchloride (PVC) and polypropylene. Automotive industry continuously works on
changing consumer preferences and thus there is increasing demand for high-performance bonding
materials. Acrylic adhesive tapes are extensively used for exterior components
such as bodyside moldings, wheels flares and pillar appliques. Acrylics tapes
also withstand extreme low temperatures and utilized in automotive OEM’s and
exterior attachment part mounting. Thus, several benefits associated with the use of acrylic tapes is
boosting the growth and is expected to account for significant Automotive Adhesive Tapes Market share.
Automotive Adhesive Tapes Market Segment Analysis – By Type
The Double-sided
segment held the largest Automotive Adhesive Tapes Market share in 2021, with a
share of over 37%. Double-sided automotive adhesive is available in a range of materials such as acrylic,
silicone and rubber. Double sided tapes also utilize numerous backing materials
such as ethylene-vinyl acetate, polyvinylchloride
(PVC) and polypropylene. These tapes
are relatively easy to adhere owing to resistance to moisture, solvent, oil and
other chemicals. It also holds superior mechanical characteristics. They offer
superior viscoelastic and adhesion properties towards automotive paint systems
and plastics. These are commonly used for bonding, technical and general-purpose
splicing, masking and protection. These tapes withstand all external influences
for the lifetime of vehicle and provide vibration damping and reliable seating.
These are used in a wide range of applications such as aeroflap, car door sill
trim, wing flare, headlight washer, roof rail and window frame including many
others. Thus,
the increase in demand double sided tapes is boosting the market growth of
Automotive
Adhesive Tapes Market Segment Analysis – By Geography
Asia Pacific held the largest Automotive Adhesive Tapes Market share in 2021, with a share of 57%. This growth is mainly attributed to the increase in the production of ICE vehicle and electric vehicle in this region. The region consists of major economies such as China, India, Japan and Australia where the level of Automotive output has rapidly increased. For instance, as per the 2021 report of the European Automobile Manufacturers Association on global vehicle production, China produced 32% of 74 million cars manufactured worldwide with Japan & Korea producing 16%.
