Polyether polyols are mainly used in the manufacturing of polyurethanes (i.e. flexible foam). These, with higher molecular weight (generally more than 3,000) are used in manufacturing of flexible foam. In 2012, the Asia Pacific polyether polyols market was valued at 2,308.8 KT, in terms of volume, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.5% from 2014 to 2020.

 

Rapid growth in the end-user industries proved to be a major driving factor influencing the growth of the polyether polyols market.

 

The market revenue of the Asia Pacific polyether polyols market is expected to grow at a rapid pace as a result of increasing prices of polyols. These chemicals are produced from propylene oxide (PO) and ethylene oxide (EO), which are derived from petrochemical feedstock. This has further resulted in increasing the revenue of polyether polyols market that is heavily dependent on crude oil prices.

 

The Asia Pacific polyether polyols market is dominated by China, mainly owing to the huge demand for polyols in this region, especially from the construction industry. In 2014, China consumed 65% of polyether polyols out of the Asia-Pacific polyether polyols volume consumption, which is followed by South Korea with 12%. Japan secured the third position with 11% of the total volume consumption of polyether polyols.

 

Major companies operating in this market include Expanded Polymer Systems Pvt. Ltd. (India), Manali Petrochemicals Ltd. (India), Cargill Inc. (U.S.), Bayer Material Science Ag (Germany), and Royal Dutch Shell Plc (U.S.) among others.
