Changing Trend from Solvent Adhesive to Hot Melt Adhesive Boosts Asia Pacific Hot Melt Adhesives Market



Hot melt adhesives offer superior properties such as versatility, resistance to water & moisture, and low cost, making these adhesives the ideal choice for many applications. Hot melt adhesives are used when the glued products can be in contact with water or moisture, including boxes for shipping food. Utilizing traditional glues in such cases can take several minutes, and further, they can cause a worker to hold on to the items to keep the two surfaces together until the glue dries. With hot melt adhesives, the drying time has been cut down to seconds, leaving the person free to continue with the next task. Hot melt adhesives are nowadays preferred among various end-use industries to solvent adhesives, owing to advantages such as eco-friendliness, high productivity induced by process automation, and re-adhesion possibility. Hot melt adhesives do not need any drying or curing like solvent-based adhesives. Hot melt adhesives can further apply in the molten state itself, so that it can be bonded immediately post-application. This further provides hot melt adhesives a significant advantage of faster processing time when applied to food packaging, consumer goods packaging, furniture, crafting, and others. Volatile organic compounds can be reduced or eliminated, and the drying or curing step can be eliminated while using hot melt adhesives. Hot melt adhesives can also be disposed of by taking special precautions, and they have a long shelf life as compared to typical adhesives. Due to all these benefits, industries are adopting hot melt adhesives over solvent-based adhesives.

Hot melt adhesives can also dissolve the polymer using water, owing to which most of the sectors are adopting these adhesives over solvent adhesives. Moreover, manufacturers are offering innovative products to cater to this demand. In September 2020, SABA announced the launch of a new hot melt adhesive in the market - Sabamelt 4732, which was meant to produce pocket coil units. The company could see an increased demand for environment-friendly, solvent-free foam bonding solutions. Expansion of the company's product portfolio with new, high-quality hot melt adhesives brought more value to bedding, as well as furniture manufacturers. SABA's pocket coil hot melt is the first addition, and the company is planning to bring more such products to the market.
