IMARC Group’s latest report, titled “Polyurethane (PU) Foam Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2021-2026,” finds that the polyurethane (PU) foam market size reached US$ 34.61 Billion in 2020. Polyurethane (PU) foam refers to a type of synthetic polymer obtained from a reaction of polyols and diisocyanate that are produced from crude oil. It is manufactured using a discontinuous (molded) process or through a continuous slabstock production process. PU foam is nontoxic, hypoallergenic, non-degradable, and protects against abrasion, temperature, moisture, corrosion and impact. As a result, it is extensively utilized for producing seats, mattresses, cushions, fillers, carpets, insulation panels, clothes and shoes.
We are regularly tracking the direct effect of COVID-19 on the market, along with the indirect influence of associated industries. These observations will be integrated into the report.
Global Polyurethane (PU) Foam Market Trends:
The global PU foam market is primarily driven by its increasing applications in various industries. In the construction sector, PU foams are used as insulating materials due to their unique physical properties and the ability to conserve energy. They are also employed in the automotive industry to enhance the functioning of various automobile components such as dashboards, airbags, armrests and exterior parts. Besides this, with rapid urbanization and the rising population, there has been an increase in bedding and furniture sales worldwide. This has escalated the demand for PU foams for use as the solid layer of foam molds to fit the body. Furthermore, PU foams are widely being used in refrigeration articles and packaging applications across the industrial sector since these foams reduce wastage and are highly recyclable in nature. Moreover, manufacturers are developing bio-based polyols for manufacturing PU foams as they release minimal carbon emissions into the environment. On account of these factors, the market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.81% during the forecast period (2021-2026).
