LONG RANGE PLAN 2030

Securing the Future for the Adhesives and Sealants Industry

The adhesive and sealant industry is silently powering the future — enabling lighter vehicles, smarter manufacturing, safer consumer products, and more sustainable solutions worldwide. The Adhesive and Sealant Council is where the leaders of this industry come together to shape what comes next. 

ASC’s new long range strategic plan is a forward-looking commitment to amplify our industry’s impact, strengthen the competitive position of our member companies, and ensure ASC remains the united voice and driving force for adhesives and sealants in a rapidly evolving global landscape.

Beginning in 2026, the plan delivers a new level of value for ASC members: greater advocacy influence, stronger market insight, deeper collaboration across the value chain, and a more powerful platform for innovation and leadership. It reflects a core belief — together, our industry can achieve more than any one company can alone.
