01 Common types of tapes

Adhesive tape is composed of two parts: the base material and the binder. By bonding, two or more disjointed objects are connected together. Adhesive tape according to its efficacy and role can be divided into the high-temperature adhesive tape, double-sided adhesive tape, insulating tape, special adhesive tape, pressure-sensitive adhesive tape, die-cutting adhesive tape, fiber adhesive tape, different efficacy and role for different industry needs.

The upstream of China’s tape industry chain is the production and processing of various types of raw materials, the more common materials are BOPP, PE, PVC, PET materials; The middle reaches of the industrial chain for tape production, processing, and sales manufacturers; In terms of downstream application, adhesive tape products are classified into various categories and widely distributed in various industrial and civil fields. Its market application fields are mainly architectural decoration, automobile manufacturing and automobile beauty, electronic and electrical products manufacturing, office stationery, packaging, medical and sanitary products, and other industries.

02  Current situation of adhesive tape industry in China

At present, the overall development level of China’s adhesive tape industry is basically synchronous with the international advanced level. Part of large and medium-sized tape manufacturer, gradually from Europe and the United States and other developed countries and regions to introduce a batch of advanced tape production and processing equipment and technology, and on the basis of the digestion and absorption, and independent innovation research and development of a batch of close to international advanced level and tape production and processing technology and equipment with Chinese characteristics, and gradually make our tape production and processing technology on a new stage, Close to the international advanced level.

03 Future market of adhesive tape industry

With the continuous development of the economy and the improvement of science and technology, China has become the world’s adhesive industry processing manufacturers and consumer. Over the years, it has been growing at a relatively high annual rate. In particular, adhesive tape, protective film, and adhesive are widely used in electronics, communications, packaging, construction, paper making, woodworking, aerospace, automobile, textile, metallurgy, machinery manufacturing, medical industry, etc. The adhesive industry has become an important and dynamic industry in China’s chemical industry.

In addition, the importance of “agriculture, rural areas, and farmers” work will be carried out in a longer period of time, which has opened up a broad long-term potential market for China’s tape work. Automobile adhesive tape is a fast developing variety, which is closely related to the rapid development of China’s automobile industry. The automobile industry is the pillar industry of China’s national economy. China’s automobile production and sales are huge, and it also drives the sustainable and steady development of the adhesive tape industry.

04 Future adhesive tape industry development trend analysis

01)

General-purpose adhesive tape product growth will slow

China’s adhesive tape industry since the reform and opening up of the 1980s has gone through more than 30 years of development. In the first ten years, the strong demand of the domestic packaging industry promoted the high-profit margin of the general adhesive tape industry, so it attracted a lot of domestic and foreign capital to join. Only in recent years, over time, the domestic universal adhesive tape (such as BOPP adhesive tape, PVC electrical tape, etc.) industry market gradually saturated, domestic universal adhesive tape industry market is close to perfect competition industry, product homogeneity phenomenon, the industry has entered the small profit era, universal adhesive tape product growth will slow.

Environmental protection and high-tech products will usher in development opportunities

Adhesives belong to organic polymer compounds and are one of the key materials for producing adhesive tape. The development direction of adhesives in the future is environmental protection hot melt, water-based and solvent-free adhesives. In the future adhesives will be low pollution water-based adhesives and hot melt adhesives for the mainstream, environmental protection adhesives will be gradually popularized. In addition, with the development of the industry market, electronic adhesive tape and some of the adhesive tape with special functions such as high-temperature adhesive tape, fiber tape, its demand will also grow rapidly.
