Report Scope and Market Segmentation

Market Definition

A packaging impact modifier is a flexible packaging product that customers use to store easily and transport products. Impact modifier is extensively used in packaging because it delivers an ideal balance among crease-whitening clarity and resistance for packaging applications. Rapid augmentation in the use of plastic packaging in different end-use enterprises is anticipated to drive the demand for impact modifier.

Packaging Impact Modifiers Market Dynamics

This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:

Drivers

• Increase the demand in pharmaceutical and food packaging

Growing demand for food and beverages and pharmaceutical is boosting the growth of the packaging impact modifier industry because the impact modifier has some unique physical properties such as, toughness, flexibility and durability which helps to safe the product from surrounding.

• Increase in demand for plastics

Plastics have many applications in several industries but the demand of plastic in packaging is very high. For the better durability and toughness, Impact modifiers are added to plastic compounded materials which increase the strength of plastic. The increase in consumption of plastic has increased the usage of impact modifiers in the packaging of products for several industries, which maintain the product's quality and increase the product's shelf life. 

• Increase the demand in PVC

Rising demand for PVC in packaging is a significant factor driving impact modifiers market growth. Pure PVS is restricted due to its low impact resistance; thus, it is important to use impact modifiers in packaging to increase durability, toughness, and weather resistance properties of PVC. Impact modifiers normally find application in rigid PVC products processing to packaging film.

Opportunities

The increasing concern for the environment is driving the market for bio-plastic packaging. Bio-plastics are the material which is made up of biodegradable material. These plastics are resultant of bio-degradable sources and renewable biomass sources or such as PLA. The major players in the packaging impact modifiers market are concentrating on carrying out R&D activities to develop the packaging that can be used in different sectors for different applications. With the augmented demand for bio-based polymers, there is a constraint for emerging new and improved packaging impact modifiers. This, in turn, is anticipated to lead to advancements in the field of packaging impact modifiers. 

Restraints/ Challenge

Ecological damage has always been a main challenge in the packaging impact modifiers market. The growing demand for eco-friendly products is limiting the growth of the packaging impact modifier market because the Polyvinyl chloride which is highly pervasive plastic particles is used in the packaging release harmful chemicals. These chemicals go into the surrounding soil and then drain into groundwater which also causes environmental damage. Thus, the increasing environmental damage about the usage of PVC products in packaging impact modifiers can hinder the growth of the market.
