Demand for polyurethane based foams is also a major factor driving the growth of the market. Polyurethanes (PU) are available as both rigid and flexible foams, and also as a coating for adhesive material. Due to these properties of PU, these are used in many different applications and industries. Some applications in the automotive sector are passenger car seat cushions, gasket seals, armrests, headrests, and other components to create lightweight, fuel-efficient, and robust structures. Rigid polyurethanes are used for insulation and flotation, while flexible ones are used for cushioning and packaging. PU is also used as adhesives in the construction and transportation industries. However, the volatile costs for raw materials will be a cause of restraint to the growth of the market.

Further key findings from the report suggest 

  • The market is segmented on the basis of resin type into polyurethane foam, polystyrene foam, PVC foam, phenolic foam, polyolefin foam, melamine foam, and others.
  • Polystyrene foam is forecasted to grow with the highest CAGR of 5.7% during the forecast period. Polystyrene foam is one of the lightest materials in terms of weight and has a high strength to weight ratio. The packaging and the railway industry generally uses polystyrene in a wide area of application.
