Water-borne polyurethane emulsion Production and Price PDF

In 2025, the price of water-borne polyurethane emulsions is influenced by multiple factors, including raw material costs, demand from key industries, and global economic conditions. The cost of essential raw materials such as polyols and isocyanates has seen fluctuations due to supply chain disruptions and changes in crude oil prices. Additionally, the growing emphasis on sustainable and environmentally friendly products has led to increased production costs, as manufacturers invest in cleaner technologies and processes.

  1. PRICE AND PRODUCTION TRENDS AND BUSINESS Forecast Report Water-borne polyurethane emulsion Production and Price Trend 01

  2. Water-borne polyurethane emulsion Production and Price Overview Historical Growth Rates and Past Performance Water-borne polyurethane emulsion production has steadily increased from 115,000 MT in 2020 to 152,000 MT in 2024, driven by rising demand in coatings and adhesives. Water-borne polyurethane emulsion production in Asia saw a 6% annual growth, with China contributing 40% of global output. In 2023, global water- borne polyurethane emulsion production hit 145,000 MT. Prices followed a volatile trend—averaging $2,750/MT in 2022, dipping to $2,600/MT in 2023 due to lower raw material costs, and rising again to $2,850/MT in early 2025. Water-borne polyurethane emulsion price in 2025 stands at $2,850/MT. The current water-borne polyurethane emulsion price reflects stable supply and balanced inventory. Despite seasonal fluctuations, the water-borne polyurethane emulsion price has remained relatively consistent. Analysts expect water-borne polyurethane emulsion production to surpass 160,000 MT by the end of 2025, driven by expansion in automotive and construction sectors. Water- borne polyurethane emulsion price is now stabilizing after a volatile 2-year stretch. 02 Request a sample at - https://datavagyanik.com/reports/global-water-borne-polyurethane-emulsion-market/

  3. Key Factors Impacting Water-borne polyurethane emulsion Prices in 2025 The water-borne polyurethane emulsion price in 2025 has been largely shaped by raw material fluctuations, particularly the cost of polyols and isocyanates, which have risen due to supply constraints in Asia. In Q1 2025, water-borne polyurethane emulsion price averaged $2,850/MT, up from $2,630/MT in Q3 2024. A key factor has been tighter export policies from major producers in China. The global logistics situation has also played a role—freight rates increased by 11% year-over-year, putting pressure on the water-borne polyurethane emulsion price. In addition, rising demand from eco-conscious industries like automotive coatings and packaging contributed to stronger market pull. Meanwhile, energy costs in the EU rose 9% since late 2024, raising the overall production cost and, in turn, the water-borne polyurethane emulsion price. Environmental compliance and certification processes have also led to delays and added costs in production pipelines. As a result, water-borne polyurethane emulsion price is expected to remain firm throughout the year, with only minor corrections anticipated in H2 2025. 03

  4. MARKET SEGMENTATION Segmentation by Geography The market segmentation of water-borne polyurethane emulsion is based on usage type, industry sector, and regional demand. Application-wise, surface coatings dominate, contributing over 47% to total volume in 2024. These are primarily used in architectural coatings, automotive parts, and electronics. Adhesives are another prominent segment, driven by demand in bookbinding, footwear, and labels. Water-borne polyurethane emulsion is also used in textile coating and leather finishing due to its softness and breathable film properties. Industry-wise, construction is the primary user, especially in protective coatings for concrete and metal surfaces. Automotive is a fast- growing segment, especially for interior and under-the-hood applications. Furniture and textile sectors are showing consistent adoption, mainly in the EU. From a geographic perspective, Asia-Pacific is the leading region, representing more than half of global water-borne polyurethane emulsion demand. China and India are key players in both production and consumption. Europe ranks second, fueled by strict environmental mandates and increased eco-product usage. North America is steady, with growth focused on packaging and sportswear sectors. Latin America and Africa are gradually gaining momentum as manufacturing shifts toward cost-effective regions. Premium segments such as high-gloss coatings and UV-stable emulsions are growing in demand. Producers are also introducing low- temperature curing and quick-dry variants for rapid processing needs. The segmentation clearly indicates the wide-ranging applications and the steady evolution of water-borne polyurethane emulsion across traditional and modern sectors. 04

  5. COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE Database of 50+ Key Manufacturers Main Manufacturers of Water-borne polyurethane emulsion: • Covestro AG (Germany) • BASF SE (Germany) • DIC Corporation (Japan) • DSM Coating Resins (Netherlands) • Lubrizol Corporation (USA) • Mitsui Chemicals (Japan) • Chemtura Corporation (USA) • Hauthaway Corporation (USA) • Chase Corporation (USA) • Wanhua Chemical Group (China) 05

  6. Economic Indicators & External Factors In 2025, global inflationary trends and rising energy prices have significantly affected input costs for water-borne polyurethane emulsion production. Crude oil averaged $87/barrel in Q1, directly influencing feedstock prices. Slower economic recovery in Europe has reduced short-term demand, while robust construction activity in Asia is supporting volumes. Exchange rate fluctuations, especially USD vs. CNY, have also impacted export pricing. Trade tensions between key chemical-producing nations have led to higher tariffs on raw materials, affecting profitability. Regulatory pressure around sustainability continues to reshape production strategies, compelling manufacturers to invest more in R&D and compliance, pushing costs slightly higher across markets. 06
