Key Market Trends

Increasing Usage in the Insulation Applications

• Spray polyurethane foam had been used in insulation applications since the 1960's and the consumption has steadily grown over time. However, spray polyurethane foam insulation experienced exponential growth during the past decade.
• The Energy Saving Trust calculates that 25% of heat loss in homes is through the roof, 35% is through the walls, 25% is through windows or draughts, and 15% is through the floor. Hence, cavity wall and loft/roof insulation are two of the most effective energy efficiency measures anyone may install.
• Spray polyurethane foam systems provide an ideal way of complying with very high insulation standards while providing effective controls against unwanted air leakage and preventing condensation. The insulation value is among the best available, as the foam seals all gaps and moulds itself to all contours.
• The widespread use of the spray polyurethane foam in building envelope assemblies, including walls, ceilings, floors, attics, crawl spaces, and roofing is linked directly to code-mandated improvements in energy efficiency and specifically, requirements for reducing building air leakage.
• Increasingly stringent building codes, such as State of California's Title 24 and International Code Council's International Energy Conservation Code, are driving builders to utilize materials that reduce fossil fuel consumption and conserve energy.
• Globally, Asia-Pacific has the largest construction market which is led by India, China, and various South-east Asian countries. In India, the government has initiated projects, such as 100 smart cities and 'Housing for All by 2022' which are expected to immensely drive the residential construction market in India through the forecast period. The country has even experienced significant interest from foreign investors in its infrastructural sector.
• Owing to all the aforementioned factors, the market for spray polyurethane foam is likely to increase in the coming years.

China to Dominate the Demand in the Asia-Pacific Region

• China is the largest economy in the entire Asia-Pacific region, in terms of GDP. The growth in the country remains high but is gradually diminishing, as the population is aging, and the economy is rebalancing from investment to consumption, manufacturing to services, and external to internal demand.
• The first year of China's 13th Five-year Plan (2016) was an important year for the country's engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) industry, as it ventured into new business models, both domestically and internationally.
• There has been an increase in investments in the transportation sector in the recent past. China's transport ministry and National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) plans to invest in coming years in many key transportation projects, which include railways, highways, waterways, airports, and urban rail.
• The automotive production is expected to reach 30 million units by 2020, owing to the "Made in China 2025" initiative, which supports in upgrading the existing low-cost mass production to higher value-added advanced manufacturing.
• Furthermore, countries, such as India and Japan, have also been contributing to the growth of the market studied. This is expected to further drive the demand for spray polyurethane, over the forecast period.
