Infrastructure Development and Sustainable Building Practices
Infrastructure projects are significantly contributing to the UAE adhesives and sealants market growth. These projects demand advanced adhesives and sealants with superior durability and environmental compliance, particularly low-VOC formulations. The construction sector’s emphasis on sustainable building practices is accelerating innovation in adhesive technologies, facilitating longer service life and improved safety. Increased use in commercial and residential buildings further propels demand. Additionally, regulatory frameworks focusing on environmental protection are driving manufacturers to develop greener adhesive solutions, ensuring the market aligns with global sustainability goals. For instance, in August 2025, Henkel launched Loctite Liofol LA 7837/LA 6265, a solvent-free, aliphatic adhesive system designed for high-thermal stress retort packaging. This eco-friendly innovation eliminates energy-intensive drying, reduces CO2 emissions, and offers high processing stability for fast production. It supports PET/Alu/CPP and polyolefin packaging, featuring ultra-low monomer content and temperature resistance up to 134°C. The solvent-free system boosts sustainability and efficiency, aligning with market demands for safe, reliable, and environmentally conscious adhesive solutions.
Industrial Expansion and Manufacturing Automation
Industrial expansion and manufacturing automation in the UAE are propelling demand for adhesives and sealants across electronics, packaging, and aerospace sectors. Adhesives with precise bonding capabilities and resistance to harsh environments are becoming vital. Increased integration of smart manufacturing and Industry 4.0 technologies requires solutions compatible with automated assembly lines. This trend encourages innovation in formulation and application methods, enabling broader adoption. Consequently, such diversification in end-use industries is strengthening the UAE adhesives and sealants market share, supporting sustained growth through enhanced product portfolios tailored to evolving industrial needs. For instance, in June 2025, Sika, a leading company in adhesives, sealants, and construction chemicals, is advancing digital innovation through its partnership with Giatec. This collaboration enhances concrete quality and sustainability using smart sensors and AI, supporting more efficient and durable construction. These technologies complement Sika’s adhesive and sealant solutions by optimizing material performance, reducing waste, and promoting sustainable building practices across their product range.
