Flexible polyurethane foam (FPF) is nearly ubiquitous in its use across a wide swath of consumer products. As a polymer produced from the reaction of polyols and isocyanates, FPF is characterized by a cellular structure that allows for some degree of compression and resilience while also providing a cushioning effect.
With the pandemic came overwhelming uncertainty for many industries, with manufacturing carrying a great deal of it. Innumerable amounts of research have been done on its short- and long-term effects, but it’s clear that even essential operations saw significant upstream and downstream difficulties as suppliers and customers alike were forced to slow down — and in many cases, shut down.
Polyurethane is one of the most flexible materials in today’s market, with countless applications relying on it for performance and extensive customization options. One of the most common multi-industry uses is in polyurethane foam spray. Unlike other applications, spray polyurethane is often high in viscosity and high in temperature — requiring specialized equipment to mix and distribute it.
The new year is here, but unfortunately, the pandemic rages on. While organizations around the world have been able to resume some semblance of normal operations and planning, there remains the possibility of another shift in demand — requiring you to accelerate production to meet your customers’ needs. And should you find yourself in this situation, the last thing you need to be worrying about is polyurethane storage.
It’s no secret that 2020 has been a challenging year for manufacturers.
