May 28, 2026 – Alexandria, VA – The Adhesive and Sealant Council (ASC) announced the publication of its North America Adhesive and Sealant Market Report, a comprehensive analysis of industry trends, market segmentation, and forecasts spanning 2025 through 2030. The report provides manufacturers, formulators, and industry stakeholders with a credible, authoritative picture of where the North American adhesives and sealants industry stands today — and where it is headed.

The report reveals the combined North American adhesives and sealants market reached 5.52 million tons valued at $24.83 billion in 2025, with growth projected to accelerate at a 3.0% volume CAGR and 4.4% value CAGR, reaching 6.39 million tons and $30.74 billion by 2030. The United States accounts for 80.6% of regional volume, with Canada and Mexico contributing 11.6% and 7.7% respectively.

“This report comes at a pivotal moment for our industry. From sustainability-driven reformulations and tightening regulatory requirements to the surge in near-shoring and advanced manufacturing, adhesive and sealant producers are navigating a rapidly evolving landscape,” said ASC President Bill Allmond. “The ASC is proud to equip our members, the broader industry, and its end users with the data and insights they need to make confident, forward-looking decisions.”

Among the report’s key findings, the paper and board segment accounted for the largest share of North American adhesive volume in 2025, primarily driven by pressure-sensitive adhesives for labels and packaging. Reactive adhesives and silane-modified polymer (SMP) sealants emerge as the fastest-growing segments, with SMPs forecast to grow at 7.3% CAGR through 2030. Building and construction remains the dominant end-market for sealants. The report also covers the shifting policy environment surrounding electric vehicles, the influence of the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act and CHIPS Act on manufacturing investment, and tightening VOC, PFAS, and EPR regulations reshaping formulation strategies across the industry.

“Despite raw material cost pressures, trade uncertainties, and a complex regulatory environment, the North American adhesives and sealants industry is resilient and growing,” said Allmond. “Innovation in bio-based materials, high-performance applications, and sustainable formulations is positioning our sector as an essential enabler of the industries of tomorrow.”
