Polyurethane Elastomers (Thermoset Polyurethane Elastomers and TPU Elastomers) Market - Global Forecast to 2022 - ResearchAndMarkets.com
The "Polyurethane Elastomers Market by Type (Thermoset Polyurethane Elastomers and TPU Elastomers), Application (Footwear, Automotive & Transportation, Industrial Machinery, Building & Construction), and Region - Global Forecast to 2022" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global PU elastomers market is estimated to reach USD 16.63 billion by 2022 from USD 12.47 billion in 2017, at a CAGR of 5.9% from 2017 to 2022.
China is the largest producer and consumer of footwear globally. However, there has been a slight shift witnessed in the production of footwear from China to other Asian countries such as India, Indonesia, Vietnam, and others. According to World Footwear, the footwear production share in China has been declined by 2% from 2013. PU elastomers are being increasingly used to manufacture shoe, soles, and slippers.
The growing demand for superior performance, abrasion resistance, and excellent appearance & attractiveness driven by rising disposable incomes and growing working class across APAC will increase the demand for PU elastomers. Increasing population and economic prosperity will further drive the footwear production in APAC. For instance, in India the population is projected to rise to 9.3 billion by 2050, which will lead to increased footwear demand and thus, will drive the PU elastomers market. However, hazardous impact on human health as well as environment and high cost of TPU in comparison to other conventional materials are the major restraints for this market.
