What are the major drivers contributing to the growth of the automotive adhesives market?
The rise in demand for lightweight, low-carbon-emitting vehicles is expected to propel the growth of the automotive adhesives market. With the implementation of stricter emissions laws as a result of increased exhaust emissions, automobile manufacturers are focusing on producing lightweight automobiles to reduce CO2 emissions. Automotive adhesives are used to replace nuts and bolts, rivets, welding, and more to make vehicles lighter and tougher, which improves fuel economy and emissions. For instance, in June 2024, according to the Canada Energy Regulator, a Canada-based federal agency, reported that zero-emissions vehicles (ZEVs) are gaining momentum in Canada, with nearly 185,000 new registrations in 2023. This marks a 49% increase from 2022 and represents 11% of all new motor vehicle registrations for 2023. Hence, the rise in demand for lightweight and low-carbon-emitting vehicles will drive the automotive adhesives market.
