Expanded Thermoplastic Polyurethane (E-TPU) Market Segmentation by Application (Automotive, Footwear, Construction, Engineering, and Others); and by Type (Polycaprolactone, Polyester, and Polyether)-Global Demand Analysis & Opportunity Outlook 2031
Global Expanded Thermoplastic Polyurethane (E-TPU) Market Highlights Over 2022 - 2031
The global expanded thermoplastic polyurethane (E-TPU) market is estimated to grow at a ~7 % CAGR over the forecast period, i.e., 2022 – 2031. Moreover, the market registered a revenue of approximately USD 2.0 billion in 2021. The growth of the market can be attributed to the presence of biodegradable properties of the chemical compound that protect the environment from being degraded. According to the World Bank, 60-70% of the world’s ecosystems are degrading faster in comparison to their recovery. Furthermore, as per the UN environment programme, only 10 % of world plastic has been recycled from the seven million tonnes of plastic waste generated. Industries are adopting eco-friendly measures in their business operations in order to contribute to the environment. Therefore, considering its flexibility, expanded thermoplastic polyurethane is used by manufacturers in different sectors, and it is expected to boost the growth of the global expanded thermoplastic polyurethane (E-TPU) market.
