2. Executive Summary
 Adhesive is a broad term as it incorporates various materials like cement, glue, mucilage, and paste among others. Adhesives majorly
comprise of polymers, which harden either in a physical manner or as a result of a chemical reaction, and are generally classified on the
basis of their curing, or bonding, mechanism. On the other hand, sealant is a soft, pliable material that changes state to become solid
after application, and is chiefly employed for the prevention of air, noise, dust, fire, smoke, and liquid penetration, where structural
strength is not required. Sealants fall between the higher-strength adhesives and extremely low-strength putties and caulks. Adhesives
and sealants are categorized on the basis of whether the bonding involves a physical or chemical mechanism.
 The key factors driving growth of the global adhesives and sealants industry include expanding construction industry, growing
transportation sector, growing global GDP, increasing focus towards environmental friendly adhesives and growing miniaturization
trends in electronics. The global adhesives and sealants market is likely to be driven by the ameliorating Asia Pacific market, skewed
trends in the US transportation sector and increasing demand for more environment friendly products. In addition, the growing
application of adhesives in the medical applications is expected to bring new opportunities to the market. However, the growth of global
adhesives and sealants industry is hindered by the fluctuating raw material prices and shortage in the supply of raw materials.
 Adhesives and sealants are utilized in several industries including packaging, automotive, electronics, footwear, construction repair and
remodeling, textiles, consumer goods, and shipbuilding. Among all the applications, packing, construction industry, durable assembly
and transportation sector account for a major part of adhesives and sealants consumption.
 The present report offers a comprehensive analysis of the global adhesives and sealants market along with a detailed study of the
regional markets including North America, Japan, Asia and Europe. The competition in the respective market is intense with few large
players viz. Henkel, H.B. Fuller, Sika and 3M. The competitive landscape along with the company profiles of the leading players in the
market is discussed in detail.
 By combining SPSS Inc.’s data integration and analysis capabilities with our relevant findings, we have predicted the future growth of
the industry. We employed various significant variables that have an impact on this industry and created regression models with SPSS
Base to determine the future direction of the industry. Before deploying the regression model, the relationship between several
independent or predictor variables and the dependent variable was analyzed using standard SPSS output, including charts, tables and
tests.
