Acrylic Resins Market size was valued at USD 22.23 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 41.4 billion by 2037, expanding at around 4.9% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of acrylic resins is evaluated at USD 23.1 billion. Growing population and home improvement activities are estimated to propel market growth. The need for housing rises in tandem with the expansion of the world's population, fueling a surge in building activities and home renovation initiatives. The demand for acrylic resins, which are frequently employed in construction as sealants, adhesives, and in the production of other building materials, is therefore increased. As per the estimations of the United States Census Bureau, the global population reached 7 billion in 2011 and may reach 8 billion in 2023.
Increasing demand for antimicrobial and antiviral coating and rapid urbanization is estimated to fuel the acrylic resins market size in the coming years. The need for antimicrobial and antiviral coatings in a variety of settings, including hospitals, schools, and public transportation, has increased as a result of the COVID-19 epidemic, and this is projected to fuel demand for acrylic resins. The construction sector is also expanding quickly due to rapid urbanization, particularly in emerging nations, and this has increased demand for acrylic resins used in building and construction products. More than half the world’s population i.e., 55% of the population lived in urban areas in 2017 and more than 4.3 billion live in urban areas now in 2022.

End-user (Building & Construction, Automotive, Electronics, Packaging)
The global acrylic resins market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by end-user into building & construction, automotive, electronics, packaging, and others. Out of these, the automotive segment is anticipated to hold the largest market size by the end of 2037 on the back of increasing vehicle purchases by individuals. Automotive coatings employ acrylic resins as binders to give the outside of the car durability and protection. They also serve as adhesives to join various parts and elements and are also employed in the production of interior trim, including door panels, dashboard elements, and seat coverings. Their usage is bound to increase with the growth in the automotive industry. For instance, the hybrid electric vehicles sale raised by 76% between 2020-2021.
Type (Water, Solvent Based)
The global acrylic resins market is also segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by type into the water and solvent-based. Owing to its expanding usage across a range of applications, the solvent-based sector is predicted to have the greatest market share by the end of 2037. Solvents including ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, and xylene are used to create solvent-based acrylic resins. These resins are utilized in applications like coatings and adhesives, where a thicker and more solid layer is required. Their use will continue to grow with their growing use in metal and wood materials, and the growth of the construction sector. For instance, it is estimated that over 12,000 new buildings will be constructed by the end of 2050, according to projections.
