PU or polyurethane is a polymer composed of organic units manufactured in the presence of blowing agents, catalysts and additives. The use of blowing agents in the process results in the opening up of the cells, thus resulting in lightweight PU foams. PU foams when treated with color pastes, color pigments, and dispersions, result in colored PU foams, and are resilient, durable, and flexible.
The global colored PU foams market is expanding due to the growth in the construction industry especially in the BRIC countries. Urbanization and huge demand for automobiles from emerging markets are encouraging the growth of the market. On the other hand, the unpredictability in the prices of raw materials and strict environmental regulations are expected to restrain the global colored PU foams market. However, the rising demand for bio-based colored PU foams from the Middle East and North America is projected to open new opportunities for growth in the coming years.
