The hot glue gun market has experienced moderate growth in 2020 because of COVID-19, followed by a minor decline in demand. The market is being disrupted by COVID-19 because of slowdown of raw material production, supply chain instability, hampered trade movements, decrease in construction demand, and reduced demand for new projects. However, the demand for medical equipment, hygiene products, food packaging has risen due to an increase in the number of COVID-19 cases and the need for healthcare and quarantine buildings/units, which will positively impact the hot glue gun market. In addition, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has drastically altered the growth status of the hot melt glue gun industry. The outbreak has distorted operational efficiency and disrupted the value chains due to the sudden shutdown of national and international boundaries, creating revenue loss and damage. The disturbed value chain has had a negative impact on raw material supply. However, as the economies are planning to revive their operations, the demand for hot melt glue gun is expected to rise globally in the coming months.

Market Insights

Consistent Growing Demand from Packaging and Electronics Industry

Hot melt glue gun is widely used in packaging industry for carton closing, sealing, pallet stabilization, flexible packaging, and others. Hot melt adhesives can bind small, detailed boxes to high strength wraparound containers. It is ideal for bonding various sorts of packaging such as beverage cartons, dairy product carton closures, cooking sauce carton sealing, iron frame carton sealing, and other applications because of the wide range of formulations available. In addition, in flexible packaging the hot melt is also used for medical packaging for various purposes such as bandage wraps, tobacco and overwraps, tamper evident lidding, and others. The hot melt has a great heat resistance, coupled with formulas that can endure temperatures as low as -40˚C and humid environment. The hot melt glue gun helps in dispensing the hot melt adhesives effectively. Most of the packaging business requires rapid bond formation, and hot melt glue guns are ideal since they do not require drying, are long lasting, and set up quickly. Further, hot melt glue gun is also used in the electronics industry for assembly of screens, covers, batteries, and other items. Hot melt adhesives are widely used in the production, sealing, and labelling of electronics by many manufacturers. These adhesives are often used to affix parts and cables or as an agent for fastening, insulating, or shielding electronics components due to their flexible nature and ability to operate effectively in a wide range of temperatures. Therefore, the rising use of hot melt glue gun in packaging and electronics industry is expected to stimulate growth of the global hot melt glue gun market.

Gun Type Insights
