The major growth rates poised for the Healthcare industry of Singapore to have a considerable influence on the overall growth of adhesives market
- Singapore's strong manufacturing capacities across healthcare, packaging, and electronic industries and adhesives have found a growth opportunity in terms of bonding and assembling applications. The demand for adhesives declined in 2020 due to trade and supply chain restrictions because of the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in a decline of above 7.5% in comparison to that of 2019.
- Adhesives are majorly consumed in the packaging industry in the country owing to their importance in bonding plastics, metals, and paper and cardboard packaging applications. Waterborne adhesives are highly consumed in the industry because of their cheaper cost and high bonding strength, which is required in these applications. It is seen that nearly 32 thousand tons of water-borne adhesives were consumed in the packaging industry of the country in 2021. Hot-melt adhesives are the fastest-growing technology in the packaging industry, with a CAGR of 5.58% during the period 2022-2028. Sustainable food packaging may assist ensure the safety of the food consumed while also reducing food waste and thus helping the adhesives demand to increase in the industry. These factors have highly motivated the demand for packaging in the food sector.
- Singapore's adhesives are also largely being consumed across the healthcare industry. Singapore's healthcare system is regarded as one of the greatest in the world, offering some of the most cutting-edge medical treatments. This is due to robust regulatory oversight, a cost-sharing structure that includes both the commercial and public sectors and payments from medical savings accounts.
Singapore Adhesives Market Trends
Usage of recyclable plastics for packaging production will open new opportunities to the industry growth
- Packaging is mainly used for protection, containment, information, utility, and promotion. The growing Singaporean packaging market segment is expected to register a CAGR of 3.77% during the forecast period. In 2017, packaging usage accounted for 33.4 million ton of packaging, including paper, paperboard, and plastic packaging. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020, the market registered a negative growth of -5.54% due to disruptions in the supply chain, shortage of packaging material, restrictions on the import and export of goods, and factories operating at low capacity.
- In 2021, the market registered a positive growth of 4.40%, with 35.6 million ton of packaging material used for various purposes. The packaging industry is expected to keep growing as there has been a rise in the e-commerce sector, which has significantly boosted the packaging industry as special packaging is required for shipping goods. In 2021, the Singaporean e-commerce market was valued at USD 5.9 billion, and it is expected to rise to USD 10 billion by 2026. In today's competitive FMCG market, it has become inevitable for companies to use attractive packaging and bring innovation to their packaging to stand out from their competitors and maintain their brand in the market.
- The Singaporean government has implemented regulations to include recyclable plastics in products. Packaging production is majorly driven by plastic in the country, which nearly accounts for around 64% of the packaging produced in 2021. With the advancement of plastic recyclability, the plastic segment is likely to maintain its growth and record a CAGR of around 4.75% during the forecast period.
Ongoing and upcoming investments in the construction of public buildings will support the end-user industry
- The Singaporean construction industry is projected to record a CAGR of about 2.6% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2028. The construction demand hit a five-year high in 2019, with an estimated SGD 33.4 billion worth of projects awarded, higher than its top-end projection of SGD 32 billion. This represented a 9.5% increase in construction demand compared to 2018. However, in 2020, due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which disrupted project implementation schedules, the preliminary figure for construction demand witnessed a decline of 36.5% to SGD 21.3 billion. The Singaporean construction adhesives and sealants market is projected to record a CAGR of about 2.86% in volume and 5.31% in value during the forecast period 2022-2028.
- Public sector construction declined from SGD 19 billion in 2019 to SGD 13.2 billion in 2020, as certain large infrastructure projects were postponed due to the need for more time to examine the pandemic's impact on resource management and project scheduling. Moreover, construction demand in Singapore is estimated to be between USD 27 billion and USD 32 billion in 2022, and the public sector is likely to provide roughly 60% of the overall demand. The public sector's construction demand is expected to range between USD 16 billion and USD 19 billion.
- On the other hand, residential construction in Singapore remains weak due to the growing stock of unsold buildings, further aggravated by the economic downturn due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, to reduce the population density in dormitories amid the pandemic, the government had planned to construct additional housing for around 60,000 migrant workers by the end of 2020. These factors are expected to restrain the demand for adhesives and sealants over the forecast period.

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. |
Research Methodology
Mordor Intelligence follows a four-step methodology in all our reports.
