(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Key market opportunities in the Americas polyurethane industry lie in automotive, building, and furniture sectors. Growth prospects exist for flexible and rigid foams, coatings, and elastomers. Strategies should focus on demand across diverse applications and regional supply dynamics, particularly in NAFTA and Mercosur regions.

Dublin, Oct. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Polyurethane Chemicals & Products in the Americas - Major End-use Markets - 2025 Edition" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets's offering.

This report provides an in-depth analysis on key product categories. This market report and online database provides a cost-effective tool for strategic decision making, allowing clients to monitor market metrics, trends and forecasts at a country or regional level.

The new study revises and updates the analyst's research of the polyurethane industry in the Americas. It builds upon ongoing research into various sectors conducted in recent years. The information contained within this report is based upon an extensive programme of interviews throughout the industry, involving raw materials producers and suppliers, end users, systems houses and relevant trade associations and industry experts.

Most research for this report was undertaken during the first half of 2025. This report therefore contains both PU product production and raw material consumption figures for the year 2024 and forecasts to 2029.

FORECASTS

The forecasts included in this report are based upon industry comments and economic indicators. It can be difficult to present a summary of forecasts for all the various types of polyurethane materials because of the many different factors which may affect the market. Manufacturers themselves are often unable to agree whether a market will increase or decrease, preferring instead to quote the factors most likely to influence it.

Forecasts for changes in production by product type and by each application are given for each country covered in this report. These are five-year forecasts, derived from industry comments and expectations, both from the end users and raw material sectors of the polyurethane industry.
