Flexible Foam Market Demand, Application, Growth, Overview, Share, Forecast 2030
Flexible Foam Market Overview
Market Research Future (MRFR) has revealed in its latest study
that the global flexible foam market is set to reach a valuation of USD
39,387.5 Mn by 2023-end up from USD 27,229.3 Mn in 2017. The market is
estimated to register a robust CAGR of 6.45% during the forecast period 2018 to
2023. The demand for flexible foam is projected to expand across different
industry verticals over the next couple of years, catalyzing the market
proliferation. However, the price volatility of the raw materials used in the
production of flexible foam is likely to affect the market adversely with
respect to the price-sensitive consumer base.
The boom witnessed in the automotive sector has a directly
proportionate relationship with the revenue creation of the global flexible
foam industry. The automotive sector has emerged as
the single largest consumer of chemical foams. Comfort is the key focus of the
automotive industry leaders which is enhanced by the integration of flexible
foams into automotive components. The deep-rooted application of flexible foams
in the automotive sector is expected to drive market expansion. The desirable
properties exhibited by flexible foam such as lightweight, resilience, low
odor, and resistance to mildew have opened avenues for increased demand from
furniture and bedding industry. Escalated adoption of flexible polyurethane
foam in the furniture and bedding industry has encouraged the flexible foam
industry leaders to innovate its product offerings according to consumer
preferences. For instance, with the shift witnessed towards thicker and firmer
mattresses, non-allergenic flexible polyurethane foam is anticipated to be used
extensively in the bedding industry. Acknowledging the need for sustainable
practices in the environmentally conscientious world, companies are investing
in the development of safe and eco-friendly methods based on biomass, which is
likely to aid market expansion.
