Polymer price data for acoustic systems

Acoustic and insulation components reduce noise and vibration in the vehicle. They consist largely of PUR foam systems and carrier compounds – their raw material prices largely determine the material costs.

pricenxt in the acoustic systems sector

With pricenxt Analytics, teams capture price developments faster, compare price series, and build up their own structured market monitoring.

Why polymer prices matter for acoustic systems:

Acoustic components are fitted in large volumes and consist to a large extent of PUR foam; price movements in polyols and isocyanates feed straight through to costs.

  • High foam content: insulation parts consist of flexible PUR foam, whose raw material prices fluctuate.

  • Several raw materials: polyols and isocyanates (TDI/MDI) develop differently in price terms.

  • Carrier components: heavy layers and carriers in PP compounds round out the material base.
