Polyurethane Additives Market Analysis
The Polyurethane Additives Market size is estimated at USD 3.64 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 4.5 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of greater than 4% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
The market was negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic as there was a slowdown in production and mobility wherein industries were forced to delay their production due to containment measures and economic disruptions. Currently, the market has recovered from the pandemic. The market reached pre-pandemic levels in 2022 and is expected to grow steadily in the future.
- The rising demand for polyurethane in the construction industry will likely propel additives’ consumption. One of the largest applications is the use of rigid PU foam as wall and roof insulation, insulated panels, and gap fillers for the space around doors and windows. Thereby augmenting the market's growth.
- On the flip side, the alternative additives can be used in some of the same applications as PU additives. For example, silicon additives and acrylic additives are both effective additives against PU foams.
- The increasing demand for more innovative and cost-effective additives is projected to act as an opportunity for the market in the future.
- The Asia-Pacific region is expected to account for the largest share and register the highest growth rate over the forecast period.
