Medical device manufacturing to drive the growth in demand for sealants in Australia
- The Australian sealants market is dominated by the construction industry, followed by other end-user industries due to diverse applications of sealants in building and construction activities such as waterproofing, weather-sealing, cracks-sealing, and joint-sealing. Moreover, construction sealants are designed for longevity and ease of application on different substrates. The construction industry generates about 9% of the country’s GDP. Currently, the Australian government is focusing on promoting energy-efficient building construction, thus, proliferating the sealants demand across the country.
- Other end-user industries comprise electronics and electrical components, locomotive and marine, and DIY, in which the electronics industry holds the major share due to the diverse applications in the electronics and electrical equipment manufacturing industry for potting and protecting materials. They are used for sealing sensors, cables, etc. Moreover, the rapid growth of e-commerce activities, along with the strong market positioning of the consumer electronics segment, would like to propel the industry size of the Australian sealants market.
- The healthcare industry mostly uses sealants for assembling and sealing medical device parts. Medical-grade sealants have unique applicability to bind with various substrates such as glass, metal, plastic, and painted surfaces. Australia has more than 500 medical device manufacturers, and the country is a major supplier of medical devices to the leading economies in the world, including the United States, Germany, and China. It is expected to register significant growth in medical device manufacturing due to unprecedented demand from the domestic market in the coming years. This, in terms, will boost the sealants demand in the country.

Australia Sealants Market Trends
Infrastructure segment is likely to dominate the construction industry
- The Australian construction industry is projected to register a CAGR of about 3.98% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2028. The Australian building and construction outlook is significantly brighter than projected, yet, the recovery remains uneven as the pandemic continues to weigh on particular industry sectors and areas. Some areas of building and construction had significant growth in 2021, while others have seen recession and depression. Australian construction adhesives and sealants are projected to register a CAGR of about 3.83% in terms of volume and 5.77% in terms of value during the forecast period (2022 - 2028).
- Although Australian residential construction showed degrowth before the COVID-19 pandemic, the industry was largely focused on the repairs and renovations side, specifically during the years 2018-19. The industry has spent about USD 2.1 billion. Moreover, the government has also introduced the "HomeBuilder" scheme with an investment of AUD 680 million in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic; as a result of this scheme, the renovation rate had been increased by 14% in 2021 in comparison to that of 2020. Moreover, the non-residential sector and engineering constructions are enjoying stable growth due to large-scale construction work being done by the Australian government in the eastern states.
- Furthermore, the infrastructure plan, which may invest USD 100 billion over the next ten years from 2021, is projected to fuel the demand for adhesives and sealants in the country during the forecast period. According to the industry and skill committee in Australia, the construction sector is expected to grow by more than 2.4% in the next five years from 2021. These factors tend to increase the demand for adhesives and sealants in the country.

Growing demand for helicopters and lightweight aircraft is likely to continue the growth of the industry
- Australia's aircraft manufacturing and repair industry earned more than USD 2 billion in sales in 2020, a significant drop from a peak in 2015–16 of almost 45%. Early attention has been placed on the domestic market as Australia's aviation and tourist sectors recovered from the severe interruption of the previous two years due to COVID-19. As a result, there is a desire for more services, new routes, and smaller aircraft. At around 38.6% share, Boeing Australia has the largest market share in the country, followed by BAE Systems, Airbus, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and Honeywell.
- Historically, Australia has been a significant purchaser of US aircraft and aviation parts. Australian airlines have long been Boeing customers in the commercial aviation industry, but QANTAS stated in December 2021 that it had selected Airbus as its top choice to replace its domestic fleet. Beginning in the middle of 2023, deliveries will continue for the next ten years.
- One of the largest business jet fleets in the Indo-Pacific is operated by Australia. With 184 business jets purchased in 2019, Australia is the second-largest market in the Asia Pacific. In addition, the country is one of the major helicopter operators in the world, with over 2,200 helicopters in operation, with significant prospects in the civilian and defense sectors.

| Keyword | Definition |
|---|---|
| Hot-melt Adhesive | Hot melt adhesives are generally 100% solid formulations, based on thermoplastic polymers. They are solid at room temperature and are activated upon heating above their softening point, at which stage they are liquid, and hence, can be processed. |
| Reactive Adhesive | A reactive adhesive is made up of monomers that react in the adhesive curing process and do not evaporate from the film during use. Instead, these volatile components become chemically incorporated into the adhesive. |
| Solvent-borne Adhesive | Solvent-borne adhesives are mixtures of solvents and thermoplastic, or slightly cross-linked polymers, such as polychloroprene, polyurethane, acrylic, silicone, and natural and synthetic rubbers (elastomers). |
| Water-borne Adhesive | Water-borne adhesives use water as a carrier or diluting medium to disperse a resin. They are set by allowing the water to evaporate or be absorbed by the substrate. These adhesives are compounded with water as a diluent, rather than a volatile organic solvent. |
| UV Cured Adhesive | UV curing adhesives induce curing and create a permanent bond without heating by using ultraviolet (UV) light or other radiation sources. An aggregation of monomers and oligomers is cured or polymerized by ultraviolet (UV) or visible light in a UV adhesive. Because UV is a radiating energy source, UV adhesives are often referred to as radiation curing or rad-cure adhesives. |
| Heat-resistant Adhesive | Heat-resistant Adhesives refer to those that do not break down under high temperatures. One aspect of a complicated system of circumstances is the adhesive's capacity to withstand disintegration brought on by high temperatures. As the temperature rises, adhesives may liquefy. They can withstand stresses resulting from differing coefficients of expansion and contraction, which might be an additional advantage. |
| Reshoring | Reshoring is the practice of moving commodity production and manufacturing back to the nation where the business was founded. Onshoring, inshoring, and back shoring are further terms used. Offshoring, the practice of producing items abroad to lower labor and manufacturing costs, is the opposite of this. |
| Oleochemicals | Oleochemicals are compounds produced from biological oils or fats. They resemble petrochemicals, which are substances made from petroleum. The oleochemical business is built on the hydrolysis of oils or fats. |
| Nonporous Materials | Nonporous materials are substances that do not permit the passage of liquid or air. Nonporous materials are those that are not porous, such as glass, plastic, metal, and varnished wood. Since no air can get through, less airflow is required to raise these materials, negating the requirement for high airflow. |
| EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement | A trade agreement and an investment protection agreement were concluded between the European Union and Vietnam on June 30, 2019. |
| VOC content | Compounds with limited solubility in water and high vapor pressure are known as Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). Many VOCs are human-made chemicals that are used and produced in the manufacture of paints, pharmaceuticals, and refrigerants. |
| Emulsion Polymerization | Emulsion polymerization is a method of producing polymers or connected groups of smaller chemical chains known as monomers, in a water solution. The method is often used to make water-based paints, adhesives, and varnishes, in which the water stays with the polymer and is marketed as a liquid product. |
| 2025 National Packaging Targets | In 2018, the Australian Environment Ministry set the following 2025 National Packaging Targets: 100% of the packaging must be reusable, recyclable, or compostable by 2025, 70% of plastic packaging must be recycled or composted by 2025, 50% of average recycled content must be included in packaging by 2025, and problematic and unnecessary single-use plastic packaging must be phased out by 2025. |
| Russian Government’s Import Substitution Policy | The Western sanctions suspended the distribution of several high-tech items to Russia, including those required by the raw material export sectors and the military-industrial complex. In response, the government launched an "import substitution" scheme, appointing a special commission to oversee its implementation in early 2015. |
| Paper Substrate | Paper substrates are paper sheets, reels, or boards with a base weight of up to 400 g/m2 that has not been converted, printed or otherwise altered. |
| Insulation Material | A material that inhibits or blocks heat, sound, or electrical transmission is known as Insulation Material. The variety of insulation materials includes thick fibers like fiberglass, rock and slag wool, cellulose, and natural fibers as well as stiff foam boards and sleek foils. |
| Thermal Shock | A temperature change known as thermal shock generates stress in a material. It commonly results in material breakdown and is especially prevalent in brittle materials like ceramics. When there is a quick temperature change, either from hot to cold or vice versa, this process occurs abruptly. It occurs more frequently in materials with poor heat conductivity and insufficient structural integrity. |
