Growth Opportunities in the Global Polyurethane Foam Market

According to a new market report published by Lucintel the future of the polyurethane (PU) foam market looks promising with opportunities in building and construction, bedding and furniture, automotive and transportation, electrical and electronics, and footwear application. The global polyurethane foam market is expected to reach an estimated $81.6 billion by 2027 with a CAGR of 5.2% from 2021 to 2027. 
The major growth drivers for this market are growth in bedding and furniture industry, high demand of PU foam in building insulation for energy conservation and increasing automotive production.
In this market, flexible foam, and spray foam are the various types of polyurethane foam. Lucintel forecasts that flexible foam polyurethane will remain the largest segment over the forecast period mainly driven by applications in different industries, such as furniture and bedding, automotive interiors, packaging, textiles, and others due to its lightweight, durable, resilient and energy absorption properties. Spray foam is expected to witness highest growth over the forecast period.
Within the polyurethane foam market, bedding and furniture will remain the largest application segment over the forecast period due to higher consumption of mattress and furniture by emerging middle class in the developing regions. Footwear is expected to witness highest growth over the forecast period.
Asia Pacific is expected to remain the largest region and witness the highest growth over the forecast period due to growth in end-use industries and also increasing construction spending in countries, such as China, India, South Korea, and Indonesia.
Emerging trends, which have a direct impact on the dynamics of the industry, include emergence of carbon dioxide-based flexible foam, and polyurethane foam based on natural raw materials. Recticel Group, Eurofoam Group, Carpenter, Mitsui Chemical, Vitafoam, and NCFI are among the major polyurethane foam manufacturers.
