Based on Glue Material, Polypropylene segment dominated the Hot Melt Equipment market in 2024 and maintain its leadership throughout the forecast period, driven by its unique properties and increasing demand across various industries. Polypropylene (PP) is a thermoplastic polymer widely used in hot melt adhesives due to its excellent adhesion to a variety of substrates, including plastics, metals, and paper-based materials. This versatility makes it highly suitable for packaging, automotive, and electronics applications, where high-performance bonding is essential.

In the packaging industry, the polypropylene segment is especially popular in flexible packaging, carton sealing, and labelling due to its high strength, moisture resistance, and low cost. The demand for sustainable packaging solutions further fuels the adoption of polypropylene-based hot melts, as they are more environmentally friendly compared to other adhesive materials. Additionally, polypropylene adhesives offer high-speed bonding and efficient processing, making them ideal for automated packaging lines in industries such as food & beverages, cosmetics, and e-commerce.

In the automotive sector, the demand for lightweight and durable materials is driving the adoption of polypropylene-based hot melt adhesives for bonding components and assemblies in electric vehicles (EVs) and traditional vehicles. These adhesives provide strong and flexible bonds while maintaining resistance to high temperatures and harsh conditions. Moreover, polypropylene adhesives are increasingly used in electronics manufacturing for component assembly and surface bonding due to their precision and reliability in micro-assembly applications. As industries continue to prioritize efficiency, sustainability, and performance, the polypropylene segment is expected to lead the hot melt equipment market in 2024.

Based on region, North America is the fastest-growing region for the Hot Melt Equipment market, driven by technological advancements, the growth of end-use industries, and increasing demand for automation.
