Bio based polyurethane refers to product use renewable biological materials, including crops, trees, other plants and their residues as raw materials, polyurethane products produced through biochemical, physical and other methods. Bio-based polymers generally have a lower CO2 footprint and are associated with the concept of sustainability. Because of concerns about the depletion of fossil resources and the global warming associated with the use of petrochemicals, new bio-based polymers continue to be developed.In 2024, global Bio-Based Polyurethane production reached approximately 15226 MT, with an average global market price of around US$ 6525 per MT.
The bio-based polyurethane (PU) market is centered on polyurethanes derived from renewable raw materials such as vegetable oils, starch, and other biomass sources, offering an eco-friendly alternative to conventional petroleum-based PU. These materials are increasingly in demand due to rising global awareness of sustainability, stricter environmental regulations, and corporate commitments to reduce carbon footprints. Bio-based PUs retain the versatile properties of traditional polyurethane-such as flexibility, durability, abrasion resistance, and insulation-making them suitable for use in coatings, adhesives, sealants, elastomers, and foams. The push toward green chemistry and circular economy principles is a key driver, especially in industries such as automotive, furniture, packaging, and construction.
Regionally, Europe and North America are leading the adoption of bio-based PU, driven by stringent regulations, strong government incentives, and a mature customer base that values sustainable products. Meanwhile, Asia-Pacific is emerging as the fastest-growing market, propelled by rapid industrialization, urbanization, and rising consumer demand for eco-friendly materials in countries like China, Japan, and India. Major challenges include higher production costs compared to conventional PU and limited large-scale availability of bio-based feedstocks. However, ongoing innovations in feedstock processing, bio-refinery integration, and advances in material performance are expected to lower costs and broaden application areas. Overall, the bio-based polyurethane market is poised for steady growth as industries seek sustainable solutions without compromising on performance.
