What Is Covered Under Automotive Adhesive Tapes Market?

Automotive adhesive tape refers to a form of tape made especially for vehicles as they need a special adhesive, the capacity to endure greater temperatures, and the ability to adhere more firmly and for a longer time along a variety of curves and acute angles. It is used to firmly secure items to the bodywork of vehicles. The main products of automotive adhesive tapes are double-sided tapes, masking tapes, reinforced tapes, and specialty tapes. Double-sided tape refers to a specific sort of tape that has exposed pressure-sensitive adhesive on both sides and is used to firmly affix objects to vehicles. These use various adhesive types such as acrylic, silicone, rubber, others and backing materials such as polyurethane (PU), ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), and butyl with polypropylene (PP), polyvinylchloride (PVC), paper, and others. These are water-based, solvent-based, and hot-melt-based. These are used for wire harnessing, powertrain, acoustic insulation, interior attachment, exterior attachment, electronics, and chassis, and wheels applications.

What Is The Automotive Adhesive Tapes Market Growth Forecast?

The automotive adhesive tapes market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.34 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%.

What Is The Driver Of The Automotive Adhesive Tapes Market?

The rising trend of electric vehicles is expected to boost the growth of the automotive adhesive tapes market going forward. An electric vehicle (EV) refers to a vehicle that can move forward using an electric motor that draws power from a battery and can be externally charged. Automotive adhesive tape is used to permanently bind battery cells and insulate electrical components in the batteries of electric vehicles; hence the rising trend of electric vehicles is expected to boost the automotive adhesive tapes market. For instance, in May 2024, according to the Global EV Outlook 2024 report published by International Energy Agency, a France-based autonomous intergovernmental organisation, in 2023, new electric car registrations in the United States reached 1.4 million, marking an increase of over 40% from the previous year. Therefore, the rising trend of electric vehicles is driving the growth of the automotive adhesive tapes industry.
