A Decade of Growth Anchored by Low-Emission Innovations and Cost Competitiveness:
Engineered wood panels exceed 400 million cubic meters in annual global consumption, with urea formaldehyde resins capturing 80-85% of adhesive usage due to 30-50% cost advantages over alternatives. Between 2025 and 2030, the market will grow by USD 3.0 billion, driven by ultra-low emission resin adoption and green building integrations.
From 2030 to 2035, FMI projects an additional USD 3.6 billion in expansion, emphasizing next-generation formaldehyde-free hybrids, circular economy principles, and compliance with stringent indoor air quality standards.
"Urea formaldehyde remains indispensable for mass-market panels where economics and performance intersect," said an FMI research analyst. "Investments in E0/E1-compliant formulations are enabling sustained demand despite regulatory pressures."
