IAL Consultants is pleased to announce the publication of fully updated and extended editions of our popular regional directories of polyurethane systems houses. This complements IAL’s ongoing research into the global polyurethanes industry.
These reports provide a comprehensive directory of PU systems houses – ~360 companies across 47 countries in three global regions – with their full contact details, system types, product ranges, production capacity, etc. They also profile the major global systems manufacturers and include details on all their regional systems houses. A technical and market background is also included.
A searchable Excel spreadsheet is available as an add-on with purchases of the PDF reports. This spreadsheet enables users to filter the systems houses against a number of key parameters.

The directories provide market and technical information that will be invaluable to additive and raw material manufacturers and suppliers, as well as to those companies wishing to source polyurethane systems across the regions covered. Information has been obtained from respondents within each company, as well as from published and in-house sources. The reports are not exhaustive, but every effort has been made to include all relevant companies. ≈50 systems houses have been added since the directories were last published in 2021. There have also been several deletions.
A major change since the last edition is the dissolution of the MCNS JV between Mitsui and SKC. SK pucore has retained the international systems business, with locations in the US, Mexico, Poland, Beijing, India and Russia, plus a polyols plant. These are profiled in the various regional reports. Mitsui has retained the PU raw materials business plus systems houses in China, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia.
In November 2019, it was announced that PLIXXENT had been formed from four of Covestro’s systems houses. In 2021 PLIXXENT acquired two more systems houses in Italy and UK.
Baalbaki is another pan-regional systems player with several locations. In 2022 it acquired the site and equipment of BASF Kanoo, UAE.
