Global Polyester Polyols Market Growth 2025-2031

The global Polyester Polyols market size is predicted to grow from US$ 4855 million in 2025 to US$ 4118 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of -2.7% from 2025 to 2031.

Polyester polyols are a type of polyol, which are key building blocks in the production of polyurethane. They are formed by the reaction between dibasic acids (such as adipic or phthalic acid) and polyhydric alcohols (like ethylene glycol or glycerol). These polyols are used primarily in the creation of polyurethane foams, coatings, elastomers, and adhesives, contributing to the flexibility, durability, and resilience of these materials.

Polyester polyols offer good mechanical strength, abrasion resistance, and chemical stability, making them suitable for high-performance applications such as automotive parts, furniture foam, insulation materials, and footwear. They are also utilized in various coatings and adhesives for industrial use, owing to their resistance to chemicals and environmental factors. The specific properties of the polyester polyol can be customized based on the acids and alcohols used in its formulation, making it versatile for a wide range of applications.

Global main players of polyester polyols include Stepan, Huafon Group, COIM, etc. The top three players hold a share about 30%. China is the largest market, has a share about 45%, followed by Europe and North America, with share 20% and 13%, separately.

The polyester polyols market has seen steady development, driven by increasing demand across industries such as construction, automotive, and furniture for products like polyurethane foams, coatings, adhesives, and elastomers. Growing environmental concerns and the push for sustainability have led to innovations in bio-based polyester polyols, which offer a greener alternative to traditional petrochemical-derived polyols. Technological advancements in the production processes have improved efficiency and product performance, making polyester polyols more versatile in applications requiring high durability and flexibility. The rise of infrastructure projects, especially in emerging economies, has further fueled market growth. Additionally, the automotive industry's focus on lightweight, durable materials has driven demand for polyester polyols in producing high-performance coatings and foams. The market is also witnessing increased investment in research and development to enhance product properties such as UV resistance, thermal stability, and biodegradability
