Additives for the Coating, Adhesive, and Sealant (CAS) Industry: What Are the Growth Opportunities?

The CAS additives space is driving transformational growth due to sustainability, performance, and new product development

This analysis presents an assessment of the global coating, adhesive & sealant (CAS) additives segments, evaluating volume shipments and revenue generated from additives used in these formulations.

For coatings, the industry is segmented by additive type into rheology modifiers, wetting, dispersing, and levelling agents, foam control agents, biocides, wax additives and other functionalities, and by application into architectural, transportation, wood & furniture, industrial, and marine & protective coatings, across waterborne, solvent-borne, and other technologies.

For adhesives and sealants, the analysis examines additives used in waterborne, solvent-borne, hotmelt, and other systems, segmented by additive type into rheology modifiers, foam control agents, wetting & dispersing agents, wax additives, and other additives, and by application into automotive; building & construction; industrial uses (packaging, electrical & electronics, industrial machinery, nonwoven, and consumer goods); wood (including furniture and shipbuilding); and other segments such as aerospace, energy, and rail.
