The polyurethane precursor industry is expected to be worth US$ 80,216.2 Million by the end of the forecast period. The market is anticipated to witness a considerable growth rate of 5.6% over the forecast period. Polyurethane is mainly made of three precursors namely- polyols, additives, and isocyanates.

Precursors are like raw materials which are used in the manufacturing of any chemical or polymer. In the Polyurethane case, polyols and isocyanates are widely used precursors in the production of polyurethane.

Polyurethane Foam is one of the key applications for Polyurethane Precursor. Flexible and Rigid foams, both are being manufactured, which are further used for other applications such as bedding, automotive seating, furniture, upholstery, and others. Rigid foams are used for insulation purposes in the construction, packaging, and refrigeration industries.

Industries such as packaging and advertising require precise and vibrant printing results, which can be achieved with the use of Polyurethane Precursor. Digital printing methods, such as inkjet and UV-curable printing, have gained popularity in recent years. These technologies often require specialized coatings to ensure optimal ink adhesion and color reproduction.
