SIBUR Launches Advanced Polyurethane Foam for Pipeline Insulation
Better Heat Protection for Industrial Pipelines
SIBUR has introduced a new polyurethane foam solution made for pipeline insulation. The company shared that this latest development is designed to improve the protection and performance of industrial pipelines in different operating conditions as per the published report. Also, the new insulation material is created to help reduce heat loss and improve the overall durability of pipelines. According to the company, the polyurethane foam shells offer better thermal insulation while also helping control moisture absorption. This can support longer pipeline life and improve efficiency in industrial operations.
Moreover, SIBUR explained that the product was developed by improving several parts of the manufacturing process. The company worked on the polyurethane formulation, foaming technology, and molding methods to achieve stronger insulation performance. At the same time, the material density was kept balanced to maintain efficiency and reliability.
According to Towards Chemicals and Materials Analytics and Consulting, the global polyurethane foam market size was estimated at USD 82.44 billion in 2025 and is expected to be worth around USD 159.91 billion by 2035, growing at a CAGR of 6.85% from 2026 to 2035. In terms of volume, the polyurethane foam industry is projected to grow from 28.65 million tons in 2025 to 51.07 million tons by 2035, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.95% over the forecast period from 2026 to 2035, due to the heavy demand for greater heat protection in major manufacturing firms.
Also, with this launch, SIBUR is continuing its focus on advanced material solutions for industrial applications. Also, the company believes the new polyurethane foam technology can support better pipeline performance while also meeting modern industry requirements for reliability and energy efficiency.
