Description

The Bio-Based Polyols Market is expected to grow from US$4.257 billion in 2025 to US$6.229 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 7.91%.

Bio-based polyols are increasingly being used in place of existing petrochemical-based polyols as they have a similar structure and properties. Bio-based materials like soy-based polyols can offer many advantages over the conventional polyols in terms of reduction in petroleum dependence, sustainability, and reduction in potential cost, and they are also often characterized by less sensitivity to hydrolysis and high thermal stability. The burgeoning need to derive products from renewable resources is driving the bio-based polyols market.

The growing need for polyurethane foams in a number of industries, such as construction and automotive, is boosting the demand for bio-based polyols. Manufacturers are introducing bio-based polyols and investing in this technology to gain a competitive edge in the market. These polyols help in meeting the growing market demand for high-performance and 100% renewable building blocks for coating & adhesives. Furthermore, the bio-based polyols are being used because they reflect a positive light on environmental protection, along with the lightweight targets in the transportation industry and renewability.

Geographically, Asia Pacific holds a significant share in the market due to the growing automotive industry and construction activities in the region. However, the rising demand for biodiesel has driven up the subsequent cost of the bio-based polyols.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
