Drivers

Increasing Energy-efficient Construction

• Energy-efficient construction is an important factor aiding in expansion of the global foam insulation market. As environmental sustainability becomes ever more a focus, builders and homeowners alike are looking for insulation materials that will improve thermal efficiency and reduce energy consumption. Worldwide adherence to strict building regulations and codes that emphasize the importance of effective insulation also stimulates market expansion. Further, the increasing demand for its product applications in an expanding construction industry and specifically because it is easy to work with when faced with extreme climates especially makes foam insulation materials ideal as effective resistance against heat.

Restraints

High Sugar Content and Consumer Spending Constraints

• In particular, the high initial costs entailed by quality foam insulation materials is a main market obstacle. It makes adoption difficult in price-sensitive markets. Furthermore, environmentally friendly concerns and the ecological impact of foams such as expanded polystyrene (EPS) put a damper on this market. Because of environmental considerations, stringent regulations governing the use of certain foam materials can leave consumers and builders with few options.
