An Adhesive tape is formed using a sticky chemical film and backing material applied to assemble and bond objects temporarily or permanently, as an adhesive on the tape is a viscoelastic material that sticks when pressure is bear to it & is moisture sensitive. According to BlueQuark Research and Consulting, the Adhesive tape market is expected to witness a significant growth rate during the forecasted period. Factors like increasing usage of adhesive tape in various industries, such as automotive and technology advancements, have led to rising demand for lightweight backing, which is the key factor driving the Adhesive tape market in the forecasted period. Further, the multiplying urban population is one of the key factors promoting the growth of the construction industry, which stimulates developers to develop more residential buildings, which is expected to drive the demand for the adhesive tapes market in the forecasted period. Furthermore, with the increase in application scope in the healthcare industries, awareness regarding hygiene products is another major factor expected to anticipate the adhesive tapes market in the forecasted period. The increasing demand for eco-friendly water-based adhesive products and the introduction of recyclable tapes made from biodegradable polymer have augmented the market growth. However, changing raw material prices are likely to restrain the development of the global adhesive tape market during the forecasted period.

Adhesives tapes are used for various purposes such as joint protection, sealing applications, fixing of floor materials, and interior & exterior works of the building to create different market players.

The primary use of adhesive tapes in automotive applications is expected to drive the market. Automotive manufacturers adopt adhesive tapes in place of mechanical fasteners such as bolts and screws to reduce the vehicles and provide better fuel efficiency. Weight reduction has become a vital part of vehicle design with rising consumer and government calls for lower carbon emissions, enhanced passenger safety, and improved performance. The automotive industry has been growingly employing adhesive tapes in various applications, such as under the bonnet, on the body, and on the interior and exterior trim of the car. These tapes are widely utilized, owing to their benefits over traditional joining technologies, like welding, soldering, or bolting.​ The adhesive tapes are surging used as flame-retardant tapes, heat-resistant tapes, general tapes, and cloth tapes in several automotive applications. In addition, it is also worn on door sills and outer treadplates. Adhesive tapes prepare for use at room temperature & can protect the surface area. These tapes are designed to withstand varied environmental conditions, including moisture, salt spray, temperature variances, and UV radiation. There has been an appreciable reduction in the amount of noise inside the vehicle due to the advanced properties of adhesives tapes, such as their acoustic insulating properties and vibration absorption. Pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) tapes are highly used in specialist vehicle and transportation systems to bond the outer vehicle skin to the supporting structure.

The Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to increase further the demand for adhesive tapes over the forecasted period. The increasing government expenditure on large-scale infrastructure projects such as rail & highways & a rising number of public-private infrastructure development collaborations has fulled the growth of the construction industry. This raises the market for adhesive tapes as they are used for sealing, bonding, & covering holes in internal glazing & partitioning systems. Adhesive tapes are extensively used for wound care, assembly medical devices, attaching electrodes on the skin & fixing cover shields during surgeries. Skin-friendly adhesive tapes are widely utilized to manufacture infant & adult diapers. Further, the increasing trend of online shopping is boosting the demand for retail packaging & distribution materials, resulting in an increased requirement for adhesive tapes across the globe. The packaging industry influences the adhesive tapes market by adding value to various manufacturing sectors, including agriculture, pharma, retail, FMCG, etc. Adhesive tapes are the merger of a material and an adhesive film and are worn to bond or join objects together in place of using fasteners, welding or screws. If you utilize adhesive tapes instead of mechanical fasteners, you may use lower-temperature applications, which can make manufacture processes simpler. Adhesive tapes can secure your surface area since they do not require the usage of fasteners or screws, which can damage the surface. Liquid adhesives are messy and time-consuming due to they must be sprayed or rolled over the surface before bonding. Adhesive tapes are a perfect choice for automated product production. Single-coated tapes includes of adhesive applied to one side of the backing. The adhesive could be composed of silicone, natural rubber, while the backing material could be a polymeric film, foil, paper, nonwoven, or high thread count woven cloth. These tapes, which consist of masking and medical tapes as well as carton sealing, electrical, and BOPP adhesives enable the bonding of a material with a surface and the linking of two adjacent or overlapping materials. The electronics sector employs pressure-sensitive tapes and adhesives to install parts directly in devices. The trend toward reduced of electronic devices, especially portable personal computers, cell phones, and tablets, is a major factor propelling the adhesive tapes market in the forecasted period.

Some market's key players are 3M, Tesa SE, Nitto Denko Corporation, LINTEC Corporation, Intertape Polymer Group, Avery Dennison Corporation, and Lohmann.

On March 22, 2019, Saint-Gobain launched a new tape product known as Norbond A7600, which is a high-performance gray acrylic foam tape for use in trailer and specialty vehicle bonding applications. It is 1.1 mm in thickness.

In March 2021, ATP Adhesive Systems Group, a Switzerland-based company engaged in developing and manufacturing client-specific adhesive products, announced the acquisition of BDK Industrial Products Ltd. for an undisclosed amount.
