Dublin, Oct. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “Acrylic Resins Market by Chemistry, Property, Solvency, Application, End-use Industry (Building & Construction, Industrial, Paper & Paperboard, Consumer Goods, Electrical & Electronics, and Packaging), and Region – Global Forecast to 2030” has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The acrylic resins market is predicted to expand from USD 21.89 billion in 2025 to USD 28.55 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8%. This growth is attributed to the increasing demand for high-performance materials in sectors such as construction, automotive, and electronics. Acrylic resins are favored for their durability and resistance to UV radiation and chemicals, making them ideal for coatings and adhesives.
The market is also driven by regulatory constraints from agencies like the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), which are limiting the allowable volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in resin formulations. This has led manufacturers to innovate sustainable, low-VOC, and waterborne resins. The shift towards green chemistry facilitates the advent of eco-friendlier products, with smart formulations like self-healing and antimicrobial acrylic coatings gaining traction.

Building & Construction Segment Leadership
By 2024, the building and construction sector is anticipated to hold the largest market share, driven by the demand for weather-resistant coatings and adhesives in infrastructure projects. Acrylic resins provide UV stability, color retention, and long-term performance, making them highly suitable for exterior applications. The rise in urbanization and infrastructure development, especially in emerging markets, supports the significant uptake of acrylic-based materials.
Dominance of Water-Based Acrylic Resins
Waterborne acrylic resins dominated the market by solvency type in 2024 due to environmental pushback against solvent-based products. These resins offer lower VOC emissions and maintain desirable properties such as adhesion and durability. They are widely used in architectural coatings and adhesives, aligning with modern sustainability goals. This trend is further bolstered by the industry’s shift towards environmentally responsible products.
North American Market Share
In 2024, North America took the lead in regional market share. The region’s mature industrial sectors like automotive and electronics, combined with stringent environmental regulations, promote the adoption of waterborne and environment-friendly resins. High demand for superior coatings and a commitment to research and development by major chemical manufacturers bolster North America’s market leadership.
