Polyvinyl Alcohol Adhesives Market, Global Outlook and Forecast 2023-2035

In Business Insights
September 07, 2025

The global Polyvinyl Alcohol Adhesives Market continues to show robust expansion, with its valuation reaching $1.2 billion in 2024. According to industry analysis, the market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8%, reaching approximately $1.8 billion by 2030. This growth stems from increasing adoption in paper packaging, textiles, and construction sectors, particularly in developing regions where sustainable adhesive solutions are gaining traction.

Polyvinyl alcohol adhesives are water-soluble polymers prized for their excellent bonding strength and environmental compatibility. Their biodegradability and low toxicity make them increasingly preferred in industries transitioning toward eco-friendly production processes. As regulatory pressure mounts against conventional solvent-based adhesives, PVA formulations are becoming the material of choice for forward-thinking manufacturers.
