Growing Deployment of Flexible Foam in the Furniture Industry Bolstering the Market Growth

The rising demand for flexible foam in furniture and bedding owing to its lightweight, durability, and versatility is propelling the market growth. Flexible foams can be expanded widely, ranging from 2 times expansions to 15 times expansion, which makes them ideal for cushiony applications. Moreover, their hard tear strength makes them stiff and resistant to compression, which is surging their demand in the furniture industry. As consumers are increasingly preferring high quality and durable materials for their furniture, such as sofas and cushions, the demand for flexible foam is significantly escalating, hence augmenting the industry growth. In addition, flexible foams, such as polyurethane (PU) foams, provide acoustic insulation in floors, walls, and ceilings, which is further augmenting the market growth. The emergence of the middle class with improved standards of living is increasing the demand for comfortable mattresses made with flexible foam, which is projected to bolster the market growth in upcoming years.
