The global construction foam market is projected to grow from USD 32.03 billion in 2024 to USD 43.96 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 5.4% during the forecasted period. The primary factor driving growth is the increasing demand for energy-efficient and eco-friendly building materials, where polymer foams are widely used in insulation, roofing, flooring, and sealing applications. The increased focus on green building certifications and strict building energy codes is also a factor supporting the use of foam-based materials that conserve energy and make the environment more comfortable for the occupants. Moreover, progress in foam technology is also a significant contributor, as spray and rigid formulations now provide greater strength and resistance to weathering in modern construction. The trend of prefabricated and modular buildings, which is gaining popularity, combined with the expansion of urban infrastructure, is a significant factor driving increased demand for construction foams in global markets.
Companies such as ARMACELL (Luxembourg), Sheela Foam Limited (India), Kingspan Insulation, LLC (Ireland), Owens Corning (US), and Zotefoams plc (UK) fall under the winners’ category. These are the leading players in the Global Polymer foam market. These players have adopted strategies such as acquisitions, expansions, partnerships, and product launches to increase their market share.
