Polyurethane resin segment is projected to be the largest segment of the foam plastics market
PU resin-based foam is available in a wide range of rigidity, hardness, and density levels. Low-density flexible resin-based foams are used in upholstery, bedding, automotive and truck seating, and novel inorganic plant substrates for roof or wall gardens. PU foams are mainly used in furniture & bedding and building & construction sectors. It is produced by many leading manufacturers. PU resin-based foam is a good choice for insulation and helps in reducing CO2 emissions. It is a versatile substance in terms of its properties and is, therefore, suitable for use in the construction and automotive industries. As the construction industry is growing rapidly in APAC, PU resin plays a dominant role in the growth of the overall foam plastics market in the region.
Footwear, sports & recreational is the fastest-growing segment of the overall foam plastics market
The footwear, sports & recreational segment is projected to be the fastest-growing end-use industry of foam plastics. The properties offered by foam plastics in polymer foams, such as good thermoforming capacity and creep resistance, make it suitable for use in many sporting goods such as skis, hockey sticks, snowboards, surfboards, and racing bicycle wheels. Using foam plastics in sporting goods make the final products lightweight and durable with high mechanical properties
