India Wood Adhesives Market

India Wood Adhesives Market Overview:

The India wood adhesives market size reached USD 249.59 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 510.49 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 8.28% during 2025-2033. The India wood adhesives market is driven by rapid urbanization, elevating demand for modular furniture, rapid growth in residential and commercial construction, rising preference for eco-friendly adhesives, advancements in engineered wood products, the launch of favorable government housing schemes, the growing woodworking sector, and substantial investments in sustainable and high-performance adhesive technologies.

India Wood Adhesives Market Trends:

Growth in Residential and Commercial Construction

India's wood adhesives industry is largely influenced by the expanding construction industry, especially in the residential and commercial segments. The escalating urbanization rates, the launch of various housing programs by the government bodies, such as Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY), and the emerging middle-class economy are bolstering the demand for wooden furniture, doors, flooring, and cabinetry. With real estate developers favoring contemporary and visually appealing interiors, wood products are being increasingly used, leading to rising demand for high-performance adhesives. The commercial segment, such as hotels, shopping malls, corporate offices, and co-working spaces, is also seeing significant growth. These facilities need high-quality wood adhesives for long-lasting furniture assembly, paneling, and interior design. Moreover, the transition toward modular furniture and ready-to-assemble (RTA) wooden fittings also promotes market growth because manufacturers use robust adhesive formulations to create long-lasting products and maintain structural strength. Additionally, the elevating disposable incomes and the shifting consumer preferences towards high-quality wooden furniture are catalyzing the need for innovative adhesives with enhanced bonding strength, water resistance, and environmental friendliness.

Increasing Adoption of Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Adhesives

The transition to sustainability models across industries is fundamentally transforming India's wood adhesives sector, as consumer demand and regulation are compelling firms to produce sustainable products. Traditional adhesives have volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and formaldehyde, which harm the environment and human health. In response to this, manufacturers are making significant investments in water-based, bio-based, and low-VOC adhesive technologies, which ensure bonding strength with the least hazardous emissions. Moreover, various government initiatives, including the National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC) and green building projects, promote the usage of non-toxic adhesives that support sustainability objectives. Builders and furniture makers are extensively opting for LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certifications, which mandate the use of eco-friendly materials, including wood adhesives with low chemical emissions. Furthermore, furniture market players, such as IKEA and Pepperfry, are also dictating market trends by focusing on eco-friendly adhesives in their product offerings. This is also being adopted by Indian furniture producers, owing to the long-term advantages of sustainable materials in upholding brand reputation and adherence to new green regulations.
