Wilmington, Delaware, United States, Sept. 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The foam blowing agents market was estimated to have acquired US$ 1.8 billion in 2021. It is anticipated to register a 5.7% CAGR from 2022 to 2031 and by 2031, the market is likely to gain US$ 2.9 billion.
The key element driving the market for foam blowing agents is the rising demand for energy-efficient buildings. The construction industry is increasingly focused on energy-efficient building materials. Foam insulation, produced with foam blowing agents, offers excellent thermal insulation properties, which align with the demand for sustainable and energy-efficient construction.
The demand for foam blowing agents is also being driven by growth in the automotive industry. The automotive industry is incorporating foam materials for lightweighting and noise reduction. Foam blowing agents are used in the production of automotive interior components and insulation materials.
Foam packaging materials are widely used to protect fragile and sensitive products during transportation. Increased e-commerce and online shopping have led to a greater demand for foam packaging.
The shift towards environmentally friendly and low-global warming potential (GWP) blowing agents, driven by concerns over climate change and regulatory restrictions on high-GWP agents, presents growth opportunities for alternative blowing agents.
