The global non-woven adhesives market size is anticipated to reach USD 5.54 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 9.1% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The key drivers of this market include the rising global demand for disposable hygiene products such as baby diapers, feminine hygiene, and adult incontinence items, driven by changing lifestyles, increasing awareness of personal care, and aging populations. Additionally, advancements in adhesive technologies, offering improved softness, bonding performance, and skin compatibility, are accelerating their adoption in premium hygiene products. Growing demand for sustainable, low-VOC, and bio-based adhesives further supports market expansion, particularly in environmentally regulated regions like Europe and North America.
Manufacturers prioritize the use of high-performance adhesives that ensure secure bonding, flexibility, and skin-friendliness to meet consumer expectations for comfort and leak protection. Additionally, ongoing product innovations, such as thinner, more absorbent, and breathable diaper designs, have further increased the reliance on advanced adhesive technologies, solidifying the baby care segment's dominant position in the market.
Hot-melt technology is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR due to its superior processing efficiency, rapid setting time, and strong bonding capabilities, which are critical for high-speed production of hygiene products. Its formulation versatility allows for enhanced softness, flexibility, and skin compatibility, key attributes for modern diapers, feminine hygiene, and adult incontinence products. Moreover, the ability of hot-melt adhesives to support sustainable and low-VOC formulations aligns well with rising environmental regulations and consumer demand for eco-friendly solutions, further driving their accelerated adoption across global markets.
Asia Pacific held the largest revenue share in 2024, driven by its large and growing population, increasing birth rates, and rising demand for affordable hygiene products across countries like China, India, and Indonesia. Rapid urbanization, improving living standards, and greater awareness of personal care have significantly boosted the consumption of baby care, feminine hygiene, and adult incontinence products in the region. Additionally, the presence of cost-efficient manufacturing hubs and expanding investments by global and regional adhesive manufacturers have further strengthened Asia Pacific's position as the leading market for non-woven adhesives.
