The size of Elastomeric Foam Market is anticipated to be valued at USD 4.7 billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach USD 5.8 billion by 2026, at a CAGR of 8.8% during the forecast period 2021 - 2026.
Elastomeric foam is the largest type of insulation foam used on the market. It is primarily used in heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC), plumbing and refrigeration systems to provide a barrier to moisture and vapor entry into systems. Elastomeric foams are used as a substitute for natural insulating materials, such as cork. Its manufacture does not include chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) or hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). This makes them suitable for use even in harsh environments. They also contain a very low amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and are therefore safe for the environment. Elastomeric foams are mainly utilized in HVAC and refrigeration operations as an active shield against the entry of vapor and moisture into systems.
These are used as a substitute for natural insulating materials, such as cork. The elastomeric foam manufacturing process does not include hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) or hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), which makes them environmentally friendly, which in turn drives the elastomer market flexible. The demand for HVAC equipment is growing rapidly, owing to increasing spending in the construction sector and increasing disposable income in major economies around the world. HVAC units add aesthetic value to residential and commercial locations. Companies are investing heavily in R&D to manufacture innovative products such as hybrid HVAC equipment that use multiple energy sources for heating and cooling applications.
In March 2018, Rubberlite launched a polyurethane foam system developed with the chemistry of Covestro elastomers. With its HyPUR-cel portfolio, Rubberlite, Inc. has created a broad line of breathable open cell polyurethane foams for footwear, medical, automotive and industrial applications, among others. Using nucleation technology that does not incorporate blowing agents or external solvents, HyPUR-cel features a variety of product lines with different physical and performance properties. The company recently announced that it is expanding its HyPUR-cel range with the launch of the R-series and its new application of Covestro elastomeric polymer components. According to Rubberlite, this new PU formula offers high strength, high performance energy return.
In June 2019, Huntsman Tecnoelastomeri launches new urethane elastomers designed for extreme working conditions. Easy to process compared to NDI-based technologies, the TECNOTHANE® VTER range from Huntsman Tecnoelastomeri comprises six elastomer solutions with customizable characteristics, which can be tailored to meet specific customer requirements. As standard, the products of the new range of engineered elastomers offer excellent tear and shear resistance, as well as high rebound properties and very low hysteresis.
The consumption of elastomeric foam increases in auto parts such as gaskets, sealing applications and under the hood, as it provides good thermal insulation and corrosion control. The growing automotive industry with increasing production of light, electric and hybrid vehicles is likely to drive the demand for elastomeric foam.
