The polyurethane foam of different density compositions such as high-density, medium-density, and low-density are available in the market. Low-density product is widely used in thermal insulation applications. Buildings are insulated with low-density products for heat and noise control. It also assists in reducing air leakage, increasing strength and durability, and improving the building’s resistance to wind uplift.
Polyurethane foam is used in diverse industries such as automotive, packaging, electrical and electronics, furniture and furnishing, building and construction, footwear, and others. The building and construction segment accounted for the highest share in 2020. However, the automotive segment is expected to grow at a significant rate during the forecast period.
The use of the polyurethane product in the vehicle body increases durability and strength while reducing overall weight, thereby offering insulation against heat and noise. The use of polyurethane foam in seats, armrests, headrests, doors, and windows provides improved comfort, enhanced safety, greater environmental performance, and higher energy efficiency.
Asia Pacific dominated the global market for polyurethane foam in 2020 and is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period. Increasing application in sealing and insulation of electronic products coupled with rising awareness regarding the adoption of electric vehicles fuels growth in this region. Rising industrial growth, urbanization, and growth in the automotive sector support market growth.
