Global Polypropylene Packaging Films Market Projected to Witness a Measurable Downturn; COVID-19 Outbreak Remains a Threat to Growth in the Near Future

Worldwide sales of polypropylene (PP) packaging films reached ~ 11,300 thousand tons in 2018, unveils the new research study by Future Market Insight (FMI). According to the report, the polypropylene packaging films market is estimated to grow by ~ 5% YOY in 2019, primarily influenced by the recent reforms coming into fore in the global packaging landscape.

According to the report, increasing focus on sustainable and cost-effective packaging formats is contributing to the build-up of polypropylene packaging films market through 2029. Consumer proclivity for recyclable formats, combined with exceptional strength and durability, will also continue to provide a fillip to sales of polypropylene packaging films in 2019 and beyond.

As flexible packaging continues to steal the spotlight, it is highly likely that a multitude of opportunities will be created for the key market players in the near future.

Flexible packaging is seeing an unprecedented growth in demand, with sustainability concerns and progressive economies collectively upholding the visibility of these formats. With convenience coming up as one of the key considerations, sales of flexible packaging forms are set for a massive upswing over the years to come.

According to the FMI report, end users will continue to markedly prefer for films with thickness in the range of 18 to 50 microns, with global sales poised to reach ~ 5,100 thousand tons in 2019. Demand for films with a thickness range of 51 to 80 micron is estimated to shoot up by the end of 2029, as end users seek user-friendly formats that are less vulnerable to external damage. Sales of BOPP type of polypropylene packaging films have been, and will continue to remain bullish, reveals FMI's study.

Global Polypropylene Packaging Films Market Segmentation By Product Type (BOPP, CPP); By Film Format (Clear Films, Coated Films, Matte Films, White Films, Metallized Films); By Thickness (Up to 18 micron, 18 to 50 micron, 51 to 80 micron, Above 80 micron); By Application (Bags & Pouches, Lamination, Tapes, Labels, Wraps, Others); By End Use (Food & Beverages, Personal Care & Cosmetics, Electric & Electronics, Industrial, Pharmaceuticals & Medical, Tobacco, Others)

Demand for BOPP type will majorly be driven by their moisture-resistant abilities and barrier properties, and will further be upheld by their surface gloss and transparency attributes. While clear films evidently stand out in terms of being the most 'sought-after' film types, end users are developing a fad for metallized films that would help them create visual cues favorable for their brands.
