The global timber laminating adhesives market size is projected to reach USD 1,047 million by 2026, at a CAGR of 8.1%. The use of timber laminating adhesives is expected to grow in floor beams, roof beams, window and door headers, trusses and supporting columns, and others, is expected to increase in the next five years.

Rising concerns about the ill effects of formaldehyde and other VOCs on human health are leading to the development of low- and no-VOC adhesives. Any new low-VOC adhesive is required to comply with performance standards established by ASTM International, US, to gain acceptability in the marketplace. The ASTM Technical Committee D14 on adhesives develops standard parameters for adhesives and materials used in compounding adhesives and engages in research on adhesives and adhesion, including clarifications of the nature of adhesion.
