Waterborne Polyurethane Market by Application (Coatings, Adhesives, Sealants, Elastomers, and Others), End-Use Industry (Building & Construction, Automotive & Transportation, Bedding & Furniture, Electronics, and Others), Region - Global Forecast to 2025

The growing demand for innovative and environment-friendly polyurethane products along with the increasing demand for waterborne polyurethanes in the construction industry of the emerging countries is driving the demand for waterborne polyurethanes. The industrial development in emerging countries and growing awareness around the harmful effects of solvent-based polyurethanes has created a growth opportunity for the waterborne polyurethanes market. However, the volatility in raw material prices is hampering the growth of the market. The sub-optimal performance of waterborne polyurethane is creating a challenge for the waterborne polyurethanes market.

The sealant application segment to register the fastest growth during the forecast period.

Waterborne polyurethane sealants provide tighter seals and forms a flexible and elastomeric seam on curing. The UV resistant sealant provides excellent adhesion to most of the industrial materials. Waterborne polyurethane sealants are more suitable for various applications owing to the formation of durable waterproof seal on curing. Waterborne polyurethane sealants are used in road repair, plumbing, and construction where a high-strength, water-resistant seal is needed. These end-uses of waterborne polyurethane sealants is driving the market growth.

The building & construction industry to be the largest end-use market for waterborne polyurethanes.

Waterborne polyurethanes have been at the epicenter of coating industry, providing greener solutions to modern coating problems. This chemical is polyurethane dispersed in water. This reduces the dependence on solvent-based polyurethanes, providing a better and environment-friendly replacement for existing systems. Advantages like temperature curing and good adhesion further reinforce the case for waterborne polyurethanes. It is frequently used in building and construction applications. Affordability of these versatile materials and the comfort they provide have made polyurethane components part of building & construction globally.
