Key Market Trends
Increasing Demand from Building and Construction Industry
- Polyurethane-based foams are used as insulating materials in homes, refrigerators, as well as for several other purposes. Insulating foams helps consumers cut down their heating and cooling costs.
- The building and conatruction industry is by far the largest consumer for rigid and sprays polyurethane foam. With rising number of building codes that promote energy-efficient structures, home builders and consumers are gradually moving toward building strategies that deliver performance and energy savings in the long run.
- According to the department of energy, heating and cooling costs account for 48% of the energy use in a typical US household. Spray polyurethanes are important solutions in improving a home’s energy efficiency, along with other insulating foams, such as EPS, XPS, etc.
- According to the US Environmental Protection Agency, energy star program can save up to 11% on a person's energy bills, by adding insulation and sealing air leaks.
- If properly insulated, the spray foam insulation can also provide protection against moisture. This, in turn, reduces the chances of walls developing harmful molds, mildews, etc. In addition to providing temperature and moisture control, insulation is often used to provide noise reduction. The insulation also proves to be helpful during the summer season, in reducing air-conditioning.
- From the above-mentioned factors, the demand for polyurethane from building and construction industry is expected to rapidly grow over the forecast period.

China to Dominate the Asia-Pacific Region
- The Asia-Pacific region dominated the global market share. With growing construction activities and rapid urbanization in countries, such as China and India, the usage of polyurethane is increasing in the region.
- China’s construction activity witnessed a rise in 2019. Though this growth is far less, compared to the average growth of the construction sector over the past ten years, which is about 11%, the construction activity is slowly increasing.
- On the other hand, the infrastructure expenditure in China has been rising lately, with significant growth in infrastructure in the transportation and social sectors. To boost economic growth, the government has approved new subway projects worth CNY 200 billion.
- China represents the world’s largest electronics production base and is extremely competitive with the existing upstream producers, like South Korea, Singapore, and Taiwan. Electronic products, such as smartphones, OLED TVs, tablets, and so on, have a major share in the market.
- Such factors, in turn, are boosting the demand for the polyurethane market in various sectors.
