(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Dublin, Nov. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Polymer Foam Market by Resin Type (PU, PS, PO, Phenolic), Foam Type (Rigid, Flexible), End-Use Industry (Building & Construction, Packaging, Automotive, Furniture & Bedding, Footwear, Sports, & Recreational), and Region - Global Forecast to 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global polymer foam market is projected to grow from USD 102.61 billion in 2024 to USD 142.02 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 5.6% during the forecast period. The polymer foam market is growing mainly due to its numerous end-use industries. The building and construction end-use industry is expected to be one of the major drivers for this market, mainly due to the rapid urbanization and the growing demand for more sustainable and energy-efficient building materials. The polymer foams are found to be used in the building and construction end-use industry's flooring, wall cavities, insulation panels, and roofing sectors.
Packaging segment, by end-use industry, is estimated to account for the second largest share during the forecast period
The packaging segment is projected to secure the second-largest share in the forecast period. The escalating utilization of protective and versatile packaging solutions is expected to make the packaging segment, based on the end-use industry, account for the second largest share of the polymer foam market. Concerning hazards of transit and storage, polymer foams, being the most widely used, are particularly beneficial to the products. They offer optimal cushioning, shockproof assistance, and heat insulation, which can be extensively used for delicate and perishable products such as electronics, glass, and food items. E-commerce and global businesses have lured businesses needing reliable and light packaging since the packaging enhances safety against risks and lowers shipping costs.
By resin type, polystyrene segment accounted for the second largest share during the forecast period
The polystyrene segment by resin type is expected to have the second-largest share of the polymer foam market owing to its affordability, adaptability, and widespread applications across various sectors. There are two significant types of polystyrene: extruded polystyrene and expanded polystyrene. These two significant kinds are extensively used in multiple sectors, including construction, consumer goods, and packaging. Polystyrene foams are used in the packaging industry due to their lightweight nature, which makes them ideal for protecting and shipping fragile items like glass and electronics. Similarly, these foams are insulating materials in the building and construction industry.
Europe region is estimated to account for the second largest share during the forecast period
Europe is expected to have the second-largest share of the polymer foam market, mainly due to an established automotive industry in the region, particularly in countries like France, Italy, and Germany. The automotive sector extensively utilizes polymer foam due to its beneficial properties, including soundproofing, lightweight nature, and cushioning ability. Moreover, Europe's rapidly growing construction industry utilizes polymer foams as energy-efficient building materials due to their thermal insulating properties. Apart from these two major industries, the demand for polymer foams is also increasing in the packaging industry of Europe due to its protective and lightweight nature, thus driving the market for polymer foams.
