Polyurethane Industry Procurement Intelligence is Expected To Grow Due To High Demand In Construction, Automotive, Electronics, Packaging, and Footwear Industries, 2020-2025 | Grand View Research, Inc

“Grand View Research, Inc”
The global polyurethane market is valued at USD 70 billion in 2020 and it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.8% from 2020 to 2025

Procurement Outlook

Polyurethane is formed by the reaction of a polyol (an alcohol with more than two reactive hydroxyl groups per molecule) with a diisocyanate or a polymeric isocyanate in the presence of suitable catalysts and additives. Polyurethane can be categorized into two major types; polyester, and polyether. These are both elastomers. Both are abrasive resistant, while polyester has a sliding quality and polyether is abrasion-resistant. Polyester and polyether polyurethanes can be used in the following ways:

•             Flexible polyurethane foam: It is used as a cushioning or protective material in furniture, mattresses, and bedding, and vehicle interiors.

•             Rigid polyurethane foam: These foams are used in commercial and residential insulation as it keeps buildings cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

•             Binders: This type of polyurethane is used to bind different materials and is commonly used in wood panels, flooring materials, and sand casting.

•             Coatings, adhesives, sealants, and elastomers (CASE): This collection of polyurethanes are used to increase the durability and lifespan of various products by covering or sealing them.

•             Reaction injection molding: This polyurethane molding is used for items like car bumpers and computer enclosures.

•             Thermoplastic: It is commonly used in construction and automotive applications.

•             Waterborne polyurethane dispersions: This type of polyurethane is used as coatings or adhesives, but with a water-based solvent.

The rising demand of polyurethane foam from construction and automotive industries have increased the procurement need for polyurethane.

Demand Outlook

The global polyurethane market is valued at USD 70 billion in 2020 and it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.8% from 2020 to 2025 due to high demand from multiple industries such as construction, automotive, electronics, packaging, and footwear. Construction application is leading the polyurethane end-user segment with more than 25% market share. APAC is the largest producer of polyurethane with ~45% share followed by North America and Europe. The global production based on polyurethane is shifting towards emerging countries in the APAC region.

Cost Drivers

Toluene diisocyanate (TDI) and Methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) are the two major raw materials and cost drivers of polyurethane production. TDI and MDI cost holds the largest share (~30%) of the overall polyurethane production cost followed by machinery and labor cost. Other raw materials include polyol, CaCo3, Amine, etc.
