Market Overview:
The global thermoplastic films market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for thermoplastic films from various end-use industries, such as packaging, medical, food & beverage, and industrial. In terms of type, the thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This can be attributed to its properties such as high tensile strength and resistance against abrasion and chemicals. In terms of application, the packaging segment is projected to grow at a higher CAGR than other segments during the forecast period.
Product Definition:
Thermoplastic films are thin sheets of plastic that can be easily molded when heated and then cooled. They are often used to make packaging materials, such as food wrap, and they can also be used in manufacturing products such as car parts. Thermoplastic films have a number of advantages over other types of plastics. They are relatively cheap to produce, they can be recycled, and they can be easily melted down and reformed into new products.
Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU):
Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) is a polymer, which has applications in various end-use industries such as automotive, building & construction and consumer goods. It is also used in the manufacturing of footwear soles. Thermoplastic polyurethane films are gaining importance on account of their excellent mechanical properties, low cost and easy availability.
Polycarbonate (PC):
Polycarbonate (PC) is a thermoplastic polymer with high heat and chemical resistance. It has applications in the food packaging, construction, automotive & transportation industries. Polycarbonate films are used as an alternative to PVC films for flexible food packaging applications on account of their superior barrier properties against moisture and oxygen along with higher flexibility compared to polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Increasing demand for sustainable materials is expected to be one of the key driving factors over the forecast period.
Application Insights:
The packaging application segment led the global thermoplastic films market in 2017 and is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The rising demand for flexible packaging solutions, coupled with a growing preference for eco-friendly materials, is expected to drive the segment growth over the coming years.
Packaging was followed by medical applications in terms of revenue share in 2017. Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) dominated this application as it has excellent flexibility property along with good impact strength and low gas transmission rate which makes it suitable for various food contact applications such as utensils, clamshells & containers among others. It also finds several other uses such as industrial & domestic cleaning products among others owing to its properties such as high durability and versatility which are likely to propel its demand further driving overall industry growth during future phases of development.
Regional Analysis:
The market in North America is expected to grow at a significant rate over the forecast period owing to the increasing demand for thermo plastics from various end-use industries such as medical, food & beverage, and others. The growing use of these products in packaging applications is also expected to drive regional growth over the forecast period.
Europe accounted for a major share of revenue generation in 2017 due to high product adoption across numerous end-use industries such as automotive, packaging, and others. The region is anticipated to maintain its dominance during the forecast years on account of rising demand from several key sectors including electrical & electronics and automotive.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from packaging and automotive industries
- Rising demand for lightweight and durable films
- Growing popularity of thermoplastic films in medical applications
- Technological advancements in film manufacturing process
