The global Polyol market size is estimated to be USD 36.7 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 49.3 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 6.1%. Polyols are one of the main raw materials used in the manufacturing of polyurethane. Other materials like isocyanates such as toluene diisocyanate (TDI) and polymeric isocyanate (PMDI) are also used in the manufacturing process. Polyols are compounds containing multiple hydroxyl functional groups. As per the number of hydroxyl groups in the molecule, these are called diols, triols, tetrols, and so on. There are two types of polyols – polyether polyols and polyester polyols. 

Polyols can be used across various applications, including flexible polyurethane foam, rigid polyurethane foam, and CASE (coatings, adhesives & sealants, and elastomers). Polyols are one of the main raw materials used in the manufacturing of polyurethane, which is mainly used in the industries like building & construction, automotive, furnishings, packaging, electronics, and others like footwear.

Some companies have initiated the following developments:

  • In December 2021, Covestro launched a new technology called the Triturn which is basically a new polyurethane elastomer system that uses CO2 technology. The new bend restrictor system was recently recognized with the UTECH Europe Award 2021 in the CASE category. It enables the reuse of CO2 as a valuable material source in polyol production and allows for a reduction of up to 20% in the amount of fossil raw materials that are typically used to make polyol.
  • In September 2022, Covestro introduced sustainable polyols. The company started manufacturing polyether polyols using bio-circular feedstock. This approach will have better quality and reduced carbon footprint as compared to the fossil fuel based raw materials.
  • In October 2022, BASF SE collaborated with REMONDIS Electro recycling, RAMPF, Eco Solutions for working upon a project that produces high-quality recycled polyols on par with those made from main fossil raw sources.
  • In November 2021, Shell chemicals did investments in a 35,000 tonnes per annum polyols unit at Shell Jurong Island, Singapore that employs techniques to increase energy. It will begin manufacturing in 2023.
