Malaysia's growing emergence as an outsourcing destination and medical device manufacturing hub to substantially boost the sealants demand
- The Malaysian sealants market is primarily driven by the construction industry, followed by the other end-user industries segment due to the diverse applications of sealants in building and construction activities, such as waterproofing, weather-sealing, cracks-sealing, and joint-sealing. Construction sealants are designed for longevity and ease of application on different substrates. The construction industry plays a vital role in the Malaysian economy. However, construction activities decreased in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic-induced restrictions and scarcity of raw materials, which was restored in 2021, thus, boosting the sealants demand across the country.
- Sealants have considerable applications in the healthcare industry and are primarily used for assembling and sealing medical device parts. Medical-grade sealants have unique applicability to various substrates, such as glass, metal, plastic, painted surfaces, etc., and significant features such as weather-proofing, heat resistance, and anti-aging are likely to boost the demand for sealants. Malaysia is emerging as an outsourcing destination and medical device manufacturing hub for manufacturers in the Southeast Asian region. This, in turn, is expected to boost the sealants demand in the country over the forecast period.
- The other end-user industries segment is likely to obtain a decent share in the Malaysian sealants market owing to the diverse applications in the electronics and electrical equipment manufacturing industry for potting and protecting materials. They are used for sealing sensors and cables, etc. Moreover, the rapid growth of e-commerce activities, along with the strong market positioning of the consumer electronics segment, is likely to propel the Malaysian sealants market.
Malaysia Sealants Market Trends
Private and industrial investments along with the upcoming mega-construction projects will augment the industry size
- The Malaysian construction industry is expected to record a CAGR of about 3.37% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2028. In 2019, the construction output in Malaysia stood at approximately MYR 146.37 billion, exhibiting a slight growth from 2018. Malaysia's construction sector grew slower in 2019, as a few projects were stalled to cover the debt values. Owing to a halt in several mega-construction projects and an increasing inventory of unsold housing stocks, the construction industry remained almost stagnant in 2019.
- In 2020, the Malaysian construction sector contracted by 13.9% due to negative growth in civil engineering, non-residential, and residential buildings. Malaysia's construction activity contracted 12.9% Y-o-Y in the December quarter of 2021. Decreasing numbers were seen in residential buildings compared to the third quarter of 2021, with a decrease in non-residential buildings and civil engineering. By 2021, the construction output fell by 5% in the country.
- Malaysia promotes and makes significant investments in private and industrial construction. As per the 2022 construction forecast for private and industrial construction, the residential sector was expected to record a 6.08% increase to MYR 22,628 million in 2021 and a decline by 1.67% in the first half of 2022 as concerns over the supply overhang linger. The growing construction developments across the country over the forecast period.
Growing demand for electric vehicles will influence the country's automotive industry
- Malaysia remains an appealing base for multinational automakers. Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Mercedes-Benz, and BMW are among the global automobile corporations that have established operations in the country to capitalize on growing customer demand.

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. |
