This is the seventh volume in a series of eight, examining the market for polyurethane chemicals and their use in the manufacture of polyurethane products in Asia Pacific. This volume focuses specifically on polyurethane binders.
Each volume can be used alone and includes a summary containing details of the total use of polyurethane chemicals.
This new study revises and updates the publisher's previous research of the polyurethane industry in Asia-Pacific. It builds upon ongoing research into various sectors conducted in recent years.
The information contained within this report is based upon an extensive programme of interviews throughout the industry, involving raw materials producers and suppliers, end users, systems houses and relevant trade associations and industry experts.
The research for this report was undertaken in the first quarter of 2022, when respondents were able to discuss figures for the full year of 2021. This report contains raw material consumption figures for the production of all major polyurethane product types, for the year 2021 and forecasts to 2026.
This volume provides information on the production of PU binders and related consumption of the principal PU raw materials, with estimates for 2021 and forecasts for 2026.
Information provided in this volume has been obtained from existing in-house data and an extensive programme of interviews with leading product manufacturers,
trade associations, raw materials producers and systems houses across AsiaPacific. Published data and statistics have also been reviewed in order to produce as accurate figures as possible for the consumption of raw materials in the production of polyurethane products.
Forecasts for the production of PU products and consumption of raw materials have been calculated for the year 2026, based upon industry and economic forecasts as well as upon other relevant commercial and technical issues likely to affect individual market sectors and products. Detailed market analyses of all product sectors are presented in the relevant volumes.
Slight discrepancies in the totals may occur, due to rounding.
The production of polyurethane binders and related raw material demand is broken
down as follows:
All the volumes quoted in this report related to tonnes of finished product and tonnes of raw material consumed unless otherwise stated.
The forecasts included in this report are based upon industry comments and economic indicators. It can be difficult to present a summary of forecasts for all the various types of polyurethane materials because of the many different factors which may affect the market. Manufacturers themselves are often unable to agree whether a market will increase or decrease, preferring instead to quote the factors most likely to influence it.
Forecasts for changes in production by product type and by each application are given for each country covered in this report. These are five-year forecasts, derived from industry comments and expectations, both from the end users and raw material sectors of the polyurethane industry. Forecasts for production in 2026 are given alongside the actual production figures provided for 2021. Additional statistical information to support the market figures for each end-use sector is provided in Volume 8 of this report.
FORMULATIONS
The multitude of proprietary formulations used in the various product sectors of the polyurethanes industry means that a number of assumptions have to be necessarily made with respect to product formulations.
In this section, the assumptions made (expressed as % w/w formulations) in calculating raw material consumption by product are presented. Since volumes are derived from the below formulations, figures therefore are presented as exact figures.
- Volume 1: Raw Materials
- Volume 2: Flexible Foam
- Volume 3: Rigid Foam
- Volume 4: Coatings
- Volume 5: Adhesives and Sealants
- Volume 6: Elastomers
- Volume 7: Binders
- Volume 8: End-Use Markets
Each volume can be used alone and includes a summary containing details of the total use of polyurethane chemicals.
