China will be the biggest PU market by 2010
China is set to become the biggest single polyurethanes market in the world by 2010, consuming 4.4 million tonnes of material, compared with North American use of 4.1 million tonnes by that date. Even so, as result of China’s huge population of well over 1.3 billion, per capita use of polyurethanes in China in three years time will still be low compared to that in developed countries. This means that there remains considerable scope for growth in China’s polyurethanes sector, to meet the appetite of China’s population for consumer goods.
Demand for polyurethanes is growing at high double-digit rates, and is the reason so many raw materials suppliers, producers of processing equipment, and manufacturers of ancillary chemicals have already set up in China. But they plan to invest more, especially in isocyanate plants in China, based on the strong growth which all pundits predict will continue.
