Leading Corporations Influencing the Polyurethane Market
Several prominent companies lead the polyurethane sector, including Dow Chemical Company, BASF SE, Covestro AG, Huntsman Corporation, Eastman Chemical Company, Mitsui Chemicals Inc., DIC Corporation, Nippon Polyurethane Industry Corp. Ltd., Recticel S.A., Woodbridge Foam Corporation, RTP Company Inc., Lanxess AG, Lubrizol Corporation, Tosoh Corporation, DuPont de Nemours Inc., Perstorp AB, Manali Petrochemicals Ltd., Wanhua Chemical Group Co. Ltd., Rampf Holding GmbH & Co. KG, FXI Holdings Inc., Kuwait Polyurethane Industries WLL, Rogers Corporation, Sheela Foam Ltd., INOAC Corporation, American Urethane Inc., TPC Inc., Weaver Industries Inc., and FallLine Corporation.
In a strategic move in June 2023, US-based Mearthane Products Corporation (MPC) acquired American Urethane Inc. The acquisition enhances MPC's capabilities in thermoset polyurethane product manufacturing on demand, as well as polyurethane casting and molding. Located in Odenton, Maryland, American Urethane's regional presence also strengthens MPC's footprint in this area. American Urethane specializes in producing polyurethane products for industrial equipment.

Sustainability Trends Shaping the Global Polyurethane Market
There is a growing demand for eco-friendly solutions, particularly bio-based polyurethanes, driven by increasing environmental awareness and demand from construction, automotive, and footwear sectors. Bio-based polyurethanes are made from biodegradable materials that serve as a rich source of precursors like polyols and isocyanates. These raw materials are not only cost-effective but also have a lower environmental impact and superior biodegradability.
In response to the rising interest in green products, polyurethane manufacturers are focusing on creating sustainable and renewable material-based products. For example, automotive OEMs are boosting demand for flexible foam components such as car seats and headrests, encouraging producers to adopt environmentally friendly manufacturing practices. This shift is expected to expand the use of bio-based polyurethane across industries including construction, automotive, coatings, and footwear. A case in point is Covestro AG's launch in September 2022 of polyether polyols in Germany, which are used in a variety of products like molded and flexible foams, adhesives, sealants, and elastomers. These materials also form the basis for rigid polyurethane foams widely employed for insulation in buildings, appliances, and transportation due to their excellent thermal insulating properties.
