COVID-19 impact on the Global Blowing Agent Market

Production of different types of foam, such as polyurethane foam, polystyrene foam, phenolic foam, and polyolefin foams was normal till mid-march but after the COVID-19 pandemic the situation deteriorates at a huge scale due to the following reasons:

Lack of demand for foams
Reduced workforce availability
Government regulations to close the production facility
Reduced operating capacity of the production facility
Disruption in foam supply chain from raw material sourcing to end products
Closing of international borders for shipment

COVID-19 has created disruption in all end-use industries, such as automotive, bedding & furniture, appliances, building & construction, electronics, furnishing, marine, and packaging. Due to disruption, the demand for foam has reduced drastically. Foam production facilities are either forced to close due to government regulations or voluntarily due to lack of demand. The demand for medical mattresses has surged in this pandemic situation but mattress manufacturers are facing difficulty in sourcing raw material for mattress production. The surge in medical mattress is low to fill the gap in production volume cause due to COVI-19 pandemic. Export activities have reduced drastically or completely shut down to prevent the spread of COVID-19 across the world, subsequently, transportation through air, water, and land were suspended for almost 3 months across the world. All these factors have lowered the demand for foam products across industries, which has caused a shrink in market size, growth rate, and potential investment in the blowing agent industry. Consumer spending has also reduced and limits to necessary daily products due to uncertain future situations.

Blowing Agent Market Dynamics

Driver: High growth in the global polymeric foam industry

The polymer foam market is driven by increasing demand from the packaging, automotive, building & construction, marine, transportation, appliances, bedding & furniture, and packaging industry. The growth of the polymer foams market further facilitates the use of blowing agents. Thus, the expected increase in the demand of different types of polymeric foam in the varied end-use application will drive the market for blowing agents in coming years.

Restraint: Frequent changes in the choice of blowing agents with respect to environmental regulations

The frequent change in the choice of blowing agents with respect to environmental regulations such as Montreal protocol and other national and regional regulations are hampering the blowing agents market. The major focus and intention after the implementation of these protocols and regulations is to minimize the damage caused to ozone layer with the use of different types of blowing agents such as HCFCs and HFCs. Thus, the foam manufacturers are having tough time on selecting an ideal alternative which gave them perfect combination of desired foam properties and profitable operation.

Opportunity: Shifting preference towards environment friendly blowing agents

The demand for environment friendly blowing agent has been rapidly increased in past few years and is expected to remain the same in future. Enviornment protection awareness and Governmental regulations has mandated use of eco-friendly blowing agent Thus, the shifting focus towards Shifting preference towards environment friendly blowing agents owing to severe climate changes open an opportunity for market players.

Challenges: Lower capacity utilization due to COVID-19 pandemic

Owing to the COVID-19 disruption, there has been a significant drop in the demand for blowing agents due to the halt in the manufacturing and transportation sectors. Decline of foam products from various industries has also reduced the demand of blowing agents. Thus, to balance the supply & demand and evade inventory pile-up, several blowing agent manufacturers are expected to operate their plant with a low capacity utilization rate in the coming period.

HC segment is estimated to dominate the overall blowing agent market.

HC is expected to be the largest type of blowing agent used globally in terms of volume. HC blowing agent is widely used in varied foam applications owing to its low ODP and GWP properties. The growth of HC blowing agent is supported by the increasing usage of oxygenated hydrocarbons, such as methyl formate, in integral skin and polystyrene foams applications. The increasing demand for vacuum panels in combination with hydrocarbon blown foams to increase energy efficiency in the appliances industry, which increases the consumption of HC blowing agents.

Polyurethane foam is the largest market for blowing agents by foam.

Polyurethane foams major finds its applications in several applications across the globe. It is extensively used for thermal insulation in buildings, transport systems, and household appliances. Further, it is also used in bedding, seating, carpet backing, electronic, computer, dash panel, shoe soles, and other applications. Thus, the continuous demand for polyurethane foams from these application industries is expected to drive its demand, which in turn will boost the blowing agent market in the future.

APAC is projected to be the largest blowing agent market.

APAC is estimated to be the largest blowing agent market during the forecast period. Among China, Japan, South Korea, India, Thailand, Indonesia and Rest of APAC, China was the largest consumer of blowing agents in the region as of 2019 in terms of value as well as volume. The major production base of HCFC blowing agent situated in China and the increasing usage of hydrocarbons, unsaturated HFCs and other chemical blowing agents are the major factors driving the blowing agent market in the region.
