IAL Consultants has published its latest report for the polyurethane industry analysing the consumption of polyester polyols within the major end-use markets across the world. Figures are based upon 2006 production of polyurethane products and associated polyester polyol consumption.

Total global production capacity of polyester polyols, aliphatic plus aromatic, is estimated to be in the region of 1.5 million tonnes, accounting for some 25% of world’s total polyurethane polyol capacity, which is estimated to be around 6 million tonnes.

Geographical coverage of this report includes data for production and consumption in the following major markets:
• Western Europe
• Central & Eastern Europe
• North America
• South America
• Asia Pacific (inc. Japan & China)
• Middle East & Africa

Published figures and industry estimates for production of end-use products are given where available, in order to substantiate market figures for polyol demand.

Major end-users are listed and when known, figures for their estimated production levels and associated polyester polyol consumption are given.

This report reviews the consumption of aliphatic polyester polyols by the major end–use markets for each type.
