New Product Launches, Investments & Expansions, and Partnerships & Agreements Were the Key Strategies Adopted by the Industry Players to Achieve Growth in the Marine Adhesives Market.
The marine adhesives market is projected to reach USD 466.2 Million by 2022, at a CAGR of 4.6% from 2017 to 2022. Marine adhesives are widely used as substitutes for rivets, and welding, among other traditional fastening methods, due to their improved performance and aesthetics. The use of marine adhesives results in weight reduction and enables the construction of lightweight ships. Furthermore, the adhesive bonding is durable in highly corrosive environments.
New product launches, investments & expansions, and partnerships & agreements were the key strategies adopted by the industry players to achieve growth in the marine adhesives market. Companies are focusing on new product launches to expand their product portfolios and fulfill the growing demand from consumers. Besides these strategies, companies are also adopting mergers, acquisitions, and partnerships & agreements as strategies to expand into emerging regions and cater to the rising demand for marine adhesives from these regions.
Europe and North America were the most active region between January 2015 and September 2017, in terms of strategic developments. New product launches and partnership & agreement were the most preferred strategies adopted by manufacturers in these regions to strengthen their position and product portfolio in the global marine adhesives market. Companies such as Henkel (Germany) and Sika (Switzerland) are the key players in Europe. Key companies in the North American region include 3M (U.S.), Huntsman (U.S.), ITW (U.S.), and H.B.
