Albany, New York, 28 April 2015 : The increased use of foams in the
construction industry has augured well for the global foam blowing agents
market globally. This heightened demand for foam blowing agents will bring
about a CAGR of 4.4% between 2014 and 2020, states a latest report that is now
available on Market Research Reports Search Engine (MRRSE). The report, titled, ‘Foam
Blowing Agents (Hydrocarbons (HC), Hydrofluorocarbons (HFC),
Hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFC) and Others) Market for Polyurethane Foams,
Polystyrene Foams, Polyolefin Foams and Other Applications - Global Industry
Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends’, has been published by
Transparency Market Research.
The report states that the global market for foam blowing agents approximated US$ 631.3 million in
2013, and will expand to US$ 843.8 million by the end of 2020. By volume, the
market for foam blowing agents was estimated at 310.5 kilo tons as of 2013.
From the geographical
standpoint, the demand for foam blowing agents in all regions dwarfed in
comparison to Asia Pacific, which held over 50% of all market shares in 2013.
The region is expected to continue its impressive run through the remainder of
the forecast period of this report. Vigorous growth of the construction and
automotive industries in Asia Pacific can be credited for the heightened demand
for foam blowing agents, particular in PU foam applications. Europe, slotted as
a mature market, will register scanty growth numbers over the forecast period
whereas North America – which held 24% share in the foam blowing agents market
in 2013 – will display moderate growth.
The single largest growth
driver pinned down by the market research report is the heightened demand for
foam blowing agents in the PU foams manufacturing industry. Despite this
seemingly positive market trend, growth will likely be hindered by the
unpredictable prices of feedstock derived from the petroleum industry. Of late,
regulations pertaining to the chemicals sector have become harsh – while this harms
conventional foam blowing agents, it offers the promise of growth for green
foam blowing agents. Hydrofluoroolefins (HFO) are an example of the latter.
The report broadly segments the
market for foam blowing agents based on product type as: Hydrocarbons (HC),
Hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFC), Hydrofluorocarbons (HFC), and others
(hydrazine, azodicarbonamide, CO2, and water). The fastest growth among all of
these segments is expected to stem from the hydrocarbon (HC) foam blowing
agents segment. The team of analysts that compiled this report also forecast
that hydrocarbon (HC) foam blowing agents will be the largest segment through
the forecast period.
About 50% of all foam blowing
agents were used in the PU foams market as of 2013, the study further reports.
The PU application will expand impressively in view of the mounting demand for
insulation applications within the construction industry.
