Polyurethane used as footwear soles is more durable than any other sole material. Polyurethane provides comfort, durability, good fit, and affordability, which are the properties expected in good footwear. Polyurethane soles have excellent mechanical properties and provide good resistance to abrasion. It also helps in keeping water out to some extent. The moldability and ease of processing also make it easy for designers to produce it on a large scale.

The leading players in the global PU sole (footwear polyurethane) market include BASF SE (Germany), Covestro (Germany), DuPont (US), Huntsman (US), Wanhua Chemical Group (China), and Coim Group (Italy).
