Our annual ASI Top 20 list of leading global adhesive and sealant manufacturers emphasizes sales figures and other details for finished adhesives and sealants, as well as related products such as tapes and labels.

Each year, ASI publishes its Top 20 list of the world’s leading adhesive and sealant manufacturers, spotlighting sales figures and key data for finished adhesives, sealants, and related products such as tapes and labels.

To compile the list, we research top global manufacturers and evaluate their 2024 sales and product details. Our rankings are based on information provided by data from annual reports, websites, press releases, company contacts, and other reliable sources.

In cases where companies declined to participate or relevant data wasn’t publicly available, and reasonable estimates couldn’t be made, some were unfortunately excluded from the list.

To be considered for the 2026 ASI Top 20 or to share feedback, please contact Karen Parker, editor for ASI, at (248) 833-7364 or parkerk@bnpmedia.com.
