2010 End-Use Market Survey on the Polyurethanes Industry

The Center for the Polyurethanes Industry (CPI) of the American Chemistry Council has announced that the 2010 End-Use Market Survey on the Polyurethanes Industry in the United States, Canada and Mexico is now available to order. Developed by IAL Consultants on behalf of the CPI, the study provides a breakdown of PU production by type and by major end-use market for each country. In addition, four-year data trends are presented along with discussions of the market status in 2010.

With the economic transitions in some markets over the past two years, additional data and commentary will be provided for 2009 and 2010. The study provides commentary on the drivers for PU and how it can make an effective contribution to our daily lives. Additional data also will be provided to help describe the NAFTA market and discussing the position of PU to other materials in the marketplace such as insulation, flooring underlay and the bedding market. The latest available industry data for the end-use markets (automotive, refrigeration, furniture, bedding, building and construction) also are included. Discounts are available for CPI members who place their order by 1 September 2011.
