China's adhesive market has stepped into a new stage of high-quality development in 2026, featuring a distinct pattern of "high-end upgrading, mid-end exertion and low-end involution". Technological upgrading and downstream demand have become the core driving forces for the industry's development, moving steadily towards high performance, greenization and scenarization. Industrial technological innovation achieves breakthroughs relying on two key technologies: SBC base material customization and AI formula optimization. Low VOC and no peculiar smell have become basic standards, and products are transforming from basic bonding to functional empowerment. Five major fields including new energy vehicle interior bonding and medical tape dressings have become the engine of demand growth, with significantly differentiated performance requirements for adhesives in each field. The market competition pattern is obviously divided. The high-end market focuses on technological competition, while general products fall into a price war due to overcapacity, accelerating industry reshuffle. Enterprises with scale and cost advantages will take the lead, and the industry concentration is expected to be further improved.
