Sponge, a porous material with good water absorption, can be used for cleaning goods.Currently, the main material of sponge on the market is polyurethane, which generally refers to the low density PU with foam density lower than 18 kg/m3.This kind of material flexibility is good, basically apply at all sorts of hot material, cushion material, the cushion for leaning on and armrest of sofa chair of car boat and furniture, cushion for leaning on, mattress, clothing cushion.China's demand for sponges increased to 2.06 million tons in 2018 from 1.64 million tons in 2014.It is estimated that under the support of the downstream industry, especially the soft furniture in China, the automobile industry under the influence of continuous high demand, with the rapid development of China's economy, people's requirements for household goods have been expanded from the single use to the comfort of the product, beautiful and multi-use characteristics.Because of polyurethane sponge with good air permeability, rebound elasticity and plasticity, material to design the software furniture with joint human body body, soft and breathable, high elastic characteristics of this kind of furniture has gradually become a residential, office buildings, commercial business premises such as building one of the indispensable thing, so the downstream demand growth is inevitable trend.We expect China's demand for sponges to continue to grow at a compound annual rate of 6% over the next six years.In terms of production areas, east and south China are the largest sponge production base, followed by north China, where the three regions account for 79% of the market. This is mainly because these regions are close to or have been the manufacturing sites of traditional household products.China's overall upstream polyurethane industry has been very mature, polyether polyols, MDI, TDI overcapacity, therefore, China made sponge has a great advantage, coupled with low labor costs, make China made sponge in the world has a strong competitiveness.At present, the sponge manufacturing industry in China is relatively scattered and lacks industry giants. Meanwhile, there are still a large number of small and micro manufacturers in the market.The dispersion of industries leads to the lack of corresponding industry standards and access system.As a result, the good and bad products in the sponge industry in China are interchangeable, which greatly weakens the competitiveness of the whole industry in the international market.At present, the larger market is shengnuo, henan jibaijia industry, fengsheng international group.They have a unified feature is that they have an excellent downstream industry chain.It is expected that in the future, sponge processing as a household, the phenomenon of seat manufacturers will be more common.
In China, Sponge key players include Sinomax Group, Henan Jiabaijia, Fengsheng International Group, Xinxiang Xinyuan Chemical Industry Co.,Ltd., etc. Global top four manufacturers hold a share about 10%.
East China is the largest market, with a share about 30%, followed by South China, and North China, both have a share about 45 percent.
In terms of product, Ordinary Sponge is the largest segment, with a share about 45%. And in terms of application, the largest application is Upholstered Furniture, followed by Automation, Clothing and Footwear, Daily Necessities, etc.
