KG, Carpenter Co., Chemtura Corp., Foamcraft Inc., FoamPartner Group, Future Foam Inc., FXI-Foamex Innovations, INOAC Corp., Rogers Corp., Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics Corp., Sekisui Alveo AG, UFP Technologies Inc., Vita (Group) Unlimited, and Woodbridge Foam Corp. Commenting on the report, an analyst from the team said: Green polyurethane foams are the modified hybrid polyurethane foams manufactured without using hazardous isocyanates in the production process. This reduces the chances of health hazards such as irritation in the skin caused by polyurethane foams. Additionally, the green polyurethane foams use bio-based polyols, which are more eco-friendly in nature, instead of petroleum-based polyols. These green polyurethane foams are rapidly gaining popularity and acceptance among the end-users. According to the report, the increasing demand from the Bedding and Furniture and Construction industries is one of the major factors that drive the growth of the market. It is estimated that the global demand for mattresses will reach approximately US$33 billion in 2018.
