Abstracts

IAL Consultants is pleased to announce the
publication of its report on the polyurethane
chemicals and products markets in the Americas.
The report presents market data according to
individual PU product type and contains the latest
information and industry developments.
Geographical coverage of the report is as follows:
North America (Canada, Mexico, USA)
South America (Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia,
Peru, Rest of South America, Venezuela)
The report provides, by country, consumption
estimates for the following polyurethane raw
materials for the base year 2022 and forecasts to
2027:

• MDI (MMDI & PMDI)
• TDI
• Aliphatic Isocyanates
• Standard Polyether Polyol
• Polyether Graft Copolymer Polyol
• Polyester Polyol (aliphatic & aromatic)
• PTHF Polyol
• Acrylic Polyol

In printed format, this publication is presented in
eight volumes, with data tables detailing production
of polyurethane products and related raw material
consumption, plus summaries of key market trends
and drivers.
For each country, production data is provided for the
following end-use market sectors:

• Flexible Foam
