Market Insights
Innovations in Flooring or Tiling Adhesives
The increasing customer demands for aesthetically pleasing and decorative tiles are expected to generate additional demand for ceramic adhesives. The manufacturers are increasingly being involved in the innovations of ceramic adhesives, which are environment-friendly and comprises low concentrations of volatile organic compounds. The building and construction industry has been facing an unprecedented rise in moisture associated claims due to various factors linked with the wider usage of floor coverings. These major factors include fast-track building and construction activities, rising usage of non-conventional sizes of flooring tiles, improperly applied, and specified adhesives. But, nowadays, the ceramic adhesive manufacturers are more involved in the developments of high quality, improved and innovative products which have helped in the reduction of moisture damage. It will ultimately lead to the market growth of ceramic adhesives. Also, the ceramic adhesive formulator works closely with its suppliers and floor covering manufacturers for the development of installation-friendly ceramic adhesive products. Ceramic adhesive products are properly being tested to ensure that it is better aligned with required alkalinity, humidity, and temperature to perform in specified applications. The ceramic tile adhesives are increasingly being considered as a new material for modern decoration, which has greater bonding capability as compared to traditional adhesive materials. Moreover, the increasing demands for decorative, attractive tiles in airports, malls, retail outlets, and other commercial building is propelling the ceramic adhesives market.
Type Insights
The ceramic adhesives market based on type has been segmented into cement-based, epoxy, acrylic, silicone, cyanoacrylate, and others. The epoxy segment is expected to grow at fastest growth rate during the forecast period of 2019-2027. Epoxy has a robust structural length and a strong bonding factor that is widely used for filling up voids between the parts. An epoxy contains two parts, the resin that must be blended well and the hardener. Some manufacturers find it convenient to use different colors of hardeners and resins. The reason to use distinct colors is that after blending them together, the product offers a third contrasting color that gives a distinct coloration of the amount of resin and hardener mixed. Epoxies are available in various squeezing styles and different sizes. Different epoxies have multiple functions like protective covering, filling, and mending. The epoxy ceramic adhesives are well-known for their ability to offer strong bonds for interior horizontal and vertical tiling applications. The epoxy ceramic adhesives are also popular for their excellent resistance to high-temperatures and marginal shrinkage. The epoxy ceramic adhesives are ideally used for porcelain, quarry, slate and granite tiles. They are also moisture sensitive and are suitably used in areas that used strong cleaning chemicals. Some of the common areas where epoxy ceramic adhesives can be used are swimming pools, bathrooms, fast-food restaurants, lobbies, dairies, factories and many others.
Application Insights
The ceramic adhesives market based on application is segmented into building and construction, dental and others. The others segment is expected to grow at fastest growth rate during the forecast period of 2019-2027. In the building and construction industry, ceramic adhesives are mainly used to install tiles, floors, roofs, and wall coverings. Ceramic adhesives are used in the building and the construction industry to bond a variety of ceramic tiles such as glazed and unglazed ceramic tiles, and porcelain, mosaic, and vitrified tiles on horizontal and vertical masonry or inclines surfaces of interior and exterior walls. Ceramic adhesives can be readily applied on a number of substrates such as concrete, cement plaster, fiber cement board, natural stones, gypsum boards, and, gypsum plaster. Ceramic adhesives are extensively used in the building and construction industry as they have long life, good shock resistance, resistant to water absorption, and high bond and shear strength. As ceramic adhesives are available as ready-to-use mixtures they are easy to apply and require less time for application. The ease of use and minimization of labor and cost associated with labor makes the favored construction adhesive used in the building and construction industry.
