Albany, New York (PRWEB) September 17, 2014 -- According to a new market report published by Transparency Market Research titled “Adhesives and Sealants Market - Latin America Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2014 - 2020”, the Latin America adhesives market was valued at USD 163.9 million in 2013 and is estimated to reach USD 253 million by 2020, growing at a CAGR of 6.3% between 2014 and 2020. The Latin America sealants market was valued at USD 56.4 million in 2013 and is likely to reach USD 83.6 million by 2020, growing at a CAGR of 5.8% between 2014 and 2020.

Economic growth and government expenditure on infrastructure development in emerging economies such as Brazil, Colombia, Mexico and Argentina are likely to boost the market for adhesives and sealants during the forecast period. However, the volatility in raw material prices coupled with environmental concerns regarding the use of synthetic (petroleum-based) adhesives and sealants could to hinder the market growth over the forecast period. In order to reduce the reliance on synthetic adhesives and sealants, major manufacturers such as The Dow Chemical Company, Henkel and Danimer Scientific LLC among others have been shifting their focus towards developing bio-based adhesives and sealants over the past few years.
