Discover the key raw materials to formulate adhesives and sealants in 2025-26 for the megatrend Efficiency
Efficiency covers formulation trends aimed at reducing extra steps or materials and increasing productivity — reducing weight, temperature curing, formulation costs, faster product processes, curing speed and return to service, saving energy, and utilising higher film thickness and fewer layers.
Focus: Ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) emulsions
They improve adhesive efficiency by reducing maintenance, cleaning, and machine downtime. They prevent skin formation and buildup, for example, during nozzle application, offering strong adhesion to substrates like wood, paper, metal, plastics, and concrete.
