<strong>Structural</strong> <strong>Foam</strong> <strong>Market</strong> <strong>Future</strong> <strong>Trends</strong>, <strong>Regional</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Competitive</strong><br />

<strong>Analysis</strong> <strong>by</strong> <strong>2025</strong><br />

“The market is subject to witness a substantial growth due to the<br />

rising infrastructure activities, growing residential & commercial<br />

construction industry <strong>and</strong> substantial growth of retail sector.<br />

Additionally, the growing need for structural foam in material<br />

h<strong>and</strong>ling, automotive, <strong>and</strong> electrical & electronics industry from<br />

BRICS.”<br />

The global <strong>Structural</strong> <strong>Foam</strong> market size is expected to value at USD 42.2 billion <strong>by</strong> <strong>2025</strong>. The market is subject<br />

to witness a substantial growth due to the rising infrastructure activities, growing residential & commercial<br />

construction industry <strong>and</strong> substantial growth of retail sector. Additionally, the growing need for structural foam<br />

in material h<strong>and</strong>ling, automotive, <strong>and</strong> electrical & electronics industry from BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China<br />

<strong>and</strong> South Africa) countries are expected to drive the growth of the market over the forecast period.<br />

Globally, the structural foam market is predicted to grow at CAGR of 5.8% in forecast period, providing<br />

numerous opportunities for market players to invest in research <strong>and</strong> development in the market. <strong>Structural</strong><br />

foams offer advantages such as lightweight <strong>and</strong> superior weight to strength ratio, mainly in comparison with<br />

the solid plastics. Such factors are largely influencing dem<strong>and</strong> of the structural foams. Other advantages of<br />

structural foams include stability, conductivity, heat resistance, <strong>and</strong> toughness.<br />

Increasing adoption of structural foams in material h<strong>and</strong>ling equipment that is commonly used for small distance<br />

travel for industrial goods within the production plant, thus exp<strong>and</strong>ing overall market reach of the structural<br />

foam industry over the forecast period. Other applications of the structural foam include packaging services,<br />

shipbuilding, wind power, <strong>and</strong> consumer goods, such factors are playing critical role in the growth of structural<br />

foam market in the last couple of years.<br />

However, variation in the cost of the raw materials <strong>and</strong> shifting preference towards biodegradable plastics as a<br />

reliable substitute replacing non-biodegradable foam are expected to limit market growth over the forecast<br />

period. Yet, large corporations are increasingly setting up supply partnerships <strong>and</strong> implementing forward <strong>and</strong><br />

backward integration in the supply chain network, thus driving market growth in the last couple of years.<br />

Although, changing fuel prices, increasing dem<strong>and</strong> for premium quality products at cheap rates <strong>and</strong> growing<br />

competition in the market are further restraining market progress to a certain extent.<br />

Polyethylene is considered as one fastest growing segment in the structural foam industry with substantial<br />

revenue generation in the last couple of years. Growing popularity of the polyethylene foam market segment is<br />

credited to the factors such as lightweight, durability, heat resistance <strong>and</strong> a closed-cell material composition.<br />

Polyethylene is widely used in the packaging of delicate products <strong>and</strong> automobile parts, thus fostering market<br />

value in the recent years.<br />

Rigid polyurethanes has also witnessed substantial growth in the last couple of years owing to increase in<br />

adoption as a structural material. Rigid polyurethanes has also displayed important properties such as<br />

toughness, lightweight, <strong>and</strong> resilience. Rigid polyurethanes also provide protection against chemical reactions<br />

<strong>and</strong> moisture effects thus making it an ideal choice for various application such as building & product insulation.<br />

Growing dem<strong>and</strong> for structural foams in the automobile sector are expected to fuel market growth over the<br />

forecast period. Additionally, introduction of lightweight composites <strong>and</strong> its advantages are expected to boost<br />

market dem<strong>and</strong> for structural foam in upcoming years as well. Recently, integration of the structural foam into<br />

various parts of a vehicle like body-side joints, chains, ledges, under body cross-vehicle frame, longitudinal<br />

frames or frame bars, machine cradles, body-side rails, door panels <strong>and</strong> hydro-formed reinforcements.<br />

The structural foam market is divided <strong>by</strong> region as North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America <strong>and</strong> Africa.<br />

North America has shown major growth in recent years owing to the rise in the adoption of latest technologies<br />

in construction & building industry <strong>and</strong> existence of well-established industrial infrastructure.<br />

Asia-Pacific region is predicted to hold major market share in the structural foam industry with massive growth<br />

in forecast period. Countries such as India, China <strong>and</strong> Indonesia are leading the Asia-Pacific’s market with high<br />

economic growth, ever-growing population, increasing st<strong>and</strong>ard of living, <strong>and</strong> significant investment <strong>by</strong> leading<br />

industry players considering potential growth opportunities in the region. The key players in the structural foam<br />

industry are Armacell International S.A., Diab International AB, Evonik Industries AG, Covestro AG, <strong>and</strong> Gurit<br />

Holding AG.<br />
