Consumers' increasing awareness of waste and gas emissions during elastomer production significantly increases the demand for environmentally friendly and sustainable insulation materials. Additionally, the manufacturing process eliminates the use of CFCs, HFCs, and other contaminants. The newly developed environmentally friendly elastomer foam has high elasticity, is 40% lighter than rubber sponge, does not absorb water, and is easy to manufacture. For example, in June 2017, BASF launched Elastospray, a new generation of environmentally friendly foam insulation products. It provides maximum insulation and the best environmental compatibility. HFCS is often used as a blowing agent to produce foams with high GWP. Elastosprey does not contain fluorinated gases and is, therefore, environmentally friendly. In addition, in March 2020, BASF expanded its range of expanded polypropylene foam Neopolene with an improved surface. This product is environmentally friendly, CFC-free, and reusable. Similarly, in July 2018, Armacell developed a new eco-friendly insulating tube supporting ArmaFix Ecolight using a closed-cell elastic PET core. This factor drives the market CAGR.
Additionally, HVAC systems control buildings, vehicles, and the indoor environments of residential and commercial buildings. They control the area's temperature, airflow, air quality, and ventilation through heating, ventilation, and air conditioning. Increasing demand from hospitals, residences, buildings, and other applications that provide a safe and healthy environment depending on the climate (humidity, temperature, and outside air) is expected to drive the growth of the foam industry. Strict regulations on worker safety and health by the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) will increase demand for HVAC systems and further accelerate the growth of this market. HVAC systems are often used to protect a specific area required to manufacture or store products. Additionally, HVAC systems come in various designs and types that help increase the aesthetic value of residential or commercial spaces. Increasing demand for HVAC systems in the automotive industry to manage comfort, heating, and airflow in vehicles drives demand. Thus, driving the Elastomeric Foam market revenue.
The Elastomeric Foam market segmentation, based on type, includes Natural Rubber, Synthetic Rubber. The synthetic rubber segment dominated the market; Increasing use in many end-use industries due to its excellent properties, such as acid resistance, excellent fire resistance, and oil performance, is rapidly increasing the demand for the segment.
