Asia Pacific Blowing Agent Market Insights, Industry Trends, Forecast to 2035

The Asia Pacific Blowing Agents Market Size Is Growing at a CAGR of 5.4% from 2025 to 2035. The market is driven by massive demand in building, construction, and automotive sectors for polyurethane and polyolefin foams, Increasing demand in various end-use industries and high growth in the global polymeric foams market.

Market Overview

The blowing agents market is experiencing significant growth due to multiple factors, which include increasing demand for blowing agents across different industrial sectors, including automotive, construction, and aerospace. Blowing Agents are chemical substances that produce expandable materials that develop into a cellular structure through a process that allows the material to change into different types of substances. Blowing agents are becoming more popular because they are being used in new fields like healthcare, which includes the FDA approval process for a foaming agent that treats abdominal trauma.

China has the world's largest construction industry. The industry's growth rate has become more limited because the Chinese government wants to switch to a services-based economic model. Polyurethane variants dominate commercial segments tied to refrigeration units and HVAC systems.

The new building codes and energy efficiency standards required by governments lead to higher incentives for using advanced, eco-friendly insulation materials. The building orders reported by Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism in June 2022 increased by 15.5% when compared to the same month in 2021. Asian construction expansion, with industrial development, created increased demand for environmentally clean blowing agents that comply with performance requirements and act as controlled substances.
