Market Definition
Technical films are packaging films made of different types of plastics material and provide barrier and sealing properties. Technical films are made up of polyethylene and other plastics, regardless of their complexity. The requirement of technical film vary in terms of impermeability, turbidity, colour, transparency, coefficient of friction i.e. slipperiness, different shrinkage temperatures, amount of conductivity, intensity, minimum gels in a film and others.
Technical films Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Rise the Demand For Longer Shelf Life for Products
Technical films decrease the need for preservatives and enhance the product life. The demand is pushing the demand for technical films for convenient food packaging. Technical films also offer a printing substrate, improving the aesthetic appeal of products. Food and beverage sector is shifting toward lightweight, transportable packaging and away from traditional packaging formats. The technical films aid to meet this demand because they are lighter than other packaging and remove the use of cans and glass, which add the weight to the packaging.
- Increased demand for Pharmaceutical Packaging
The pharmaceutical sector has huge requirements for packaging solutions in terms of cost-effectiveness, insulation from the outside environment, high levels of protection and ease of handling. Therefore, blister base high packaging films are extensively used because this packaging prevent gas exchange through the packaging and control the temperature within the package which are expected to drive the growth rate of the technical films market.
Furthermore, increasing demand for sustainable sources in delivery, augmented disposable income, and other food services, increased development of new government policies supporting packaging solutions are expected to increase the demand for technical films in the market.
Opportunities
- Production of Biodegradable Technical Films
The government initiatives of manufacturing renewable and biodegradable cellulose-based technical films to reduce the environmental impact which create the profitable opportunities to the market players during forecast period of 2022 to 2029. The major market players address these environmental issues and decrease the amount of polymer used without compromising the product performance.
- Increasing Investments in Packaging
Moreover, the rising investments in packaging industry for many research and development activities will further offer various growth opportunities for the growth of the technical films market.
Restraints/Challenges
However, increasing the cost of raw material and rising consumer awareness regrading healthier lifestyles are acting as major constraints to the growth of the technical films market in the forecast period, whereas recyclability and biodegradability are acting as major challenges for the growth of the technical films market.
