Abstract

Monumental Price of Raw Materials Rises for PSAs Challenges Operation

The prices of raw materials used to make PSAs have undergone colossal changes since the middle of 2004. Some of the raw material prices have gone up by 50%, while prices for a few others have doubled. This can be attributed to the short supply of acrylic monomers for the acrylic-based PSAs and isoprene for the rubber-based PSAs. This poses serious challenge to the PSA manufacturers, as they are unable to entirely transfer the price increases to the next member in the value chain. The cut in margins because of this has affected the PSA manufacturers severely, and this is a serious challenge that the industry has to deal with.

High End-user Growth and New Applications Fuel Growth

The high rate of growth in products that use PSA labels and narrow-web graphics has been one of the main reasons that have been fueling the high rate of growth of the PSA industry. The rate of growth in the end-user industry is directly reflected on the growth of the PSA industry. The easy-to-use nature of these products has been one of the major factors for end-users to prefer using PSA labels and narrow-web graphics.

In addition to this, new applications like RFID and smart labels are touted to be high growth segments. This is because these labels can carry more information than conventional labels and are more in-line with the changing trends that characterize the digital world. This is another reason that is expected to sustain the growth of the PSA industry.

Total Market Expected to Grow at a CAGR of 9 Percent

The U.S. PSA markets for labels and narrow-web graphics is expected to growth with a CAGR of 9 percent during the years 2006-2012. The total U.S. PSA markets for labels and narrow-web graphics unit shipments are expected to continue to growth at a CAGR of 6.6 percent due to high end-user growth. The UV technology is a new technology that have started to receive wide acceptance in the industry and that segment of the industry is a fragmented and developing segment with growth rates in double digits. While the solvent-based PSAs are expected to show decreasing growth percents, the water-based and solvent-based segments are expected to growth in the lines of the total industry.
