Market Analysis and Size
The packaging industry is becoming an essential part of end-use industries. Rising demand for see-through packaging solutions is increase the demand for high-performance barrier materials, such as cast films. The requirement for high-quality cast films is growing due to the regulation of governing bodies and environmental organizations for packaging industry, which has improved the importance of optical properties and quality of the raw materials of cast films.
Rising environmental concerns and increasing water pollution caused by plastics around the world, the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) launched a global campaign to promote awareness about the disadvantages of using micro-plastics and discourage their excessive usage.. Cast films are environmentally benign, degradable, and recyclable, making them better than plastic bags.

Market Definition
Cast films are a type of packaging film produced with the extrusion of polymers then melted in a cast for the formulation of this thin film sheet. This hot thin film sheet is then pinned in to a cooled roll with the help of air or a vacuum box. Along this process, cooled this thin film. This process is highly efficient as compared to blown process of film production.
