Polyurethane foam is one of the most widely used polymeric foam in the world, finding applications in almost all the modern industries. These are made primarily by reacting diisocyanates (MDI or TDI) with polyols and other chemicals. Polyurethane occurs in mainly two forms; Polyurethane foams and Polyurethane non foams. These are classified on the basis of their commercially available forms as Flexible polyurethane foams and Rigid polyurethane foams. Flexible foams are used mainly as a cushioning material in transportation, bedding & furniture, packaging, etc.; whereas, rigid foams are used primarily as an insulation material in construction and refrigeration applications.

The global market has grown during the past few years, driven by cost effectiveness and adaptability of polyurethane foams in major end-user industry applications. The market is expected to register a healthy growth on account of the growth in key end-user industries. The Asia-Pacific market is a major consumer with the highest usage in furniture and construction industries. In FY2012, U.S. and China shared 35.9% of the demand. The consumption and revenue generation was witnessed to be high in the APAC region, followed by the Western European region.
