The Adhesive Manufacturing industry is gradually transforming thanks to technological advancements, changing environmental regulations and shifting customer demand. But ongoing weak demand from particular markets has cut into revenue for manufacturers. Motor vehicle manufacturing in Australia collapsed, reducing sales of structural adhesives. Fluctuating sales to the construction sector have compounded these adverse effects, as has the COVID-19 pandemic and its associated influence on the Australian economy. Overall, revenue is expected to decline at an annualised 3.8% over the five years through 2023-24, to $630.0 million. This trend includes an anticipated drop of 2.4% in the current year.
Industry revenue has declined at a CAGR of 3.8 % over the past five years, to reach an estimated $630.0m in 2024.
Market size is projected to grow over the next five years.
