Breathable Films Market
Breathable Films Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report Market by Product Type (Polyethylene Based, Polypropylene Based, Polyurethane Based, Other), By Technology (Microporous, Monolithic), By Application (Hygiene & Personal Care, Food Packaging, Construction, Fabric, Other) Forecast Period (2022-2030)
Breathable films market is anticipated to grow at a considerable CAGR of 7.3% during the forecast period. The rising awareness regarding personal hygiene along with increasing purchasing power of consumers is a key factor driving the growth of the global breathable film market. Technological advancements in composition of breathable films is further driving the growth of the global breathable film market. For instance, in March 2022, Scientists from the University of California (UCLA) have created an exclusive design of ultrathin films for extremely flexible yet mechanically strong bioelectronic membranes. This membrane can be suitable for diagnostic on-skin sensors that can be positioned precisely over the body’s contours and adapt to its movements. Secured together by van Waals forces, intermolecular interactions that can only occur at very close distances between atoms or molecules, the membrane is stretchy and versatile to dynamically altering biological substrates while being breathable and permeable to air and water.
In April 2021, Royal DSM has introduced a new portfolio of engineering materials for medical device applications. The family of medical-grade polymers includes Arnitel Care polyester-based thermoplastic elastomer (TPC), Arnite Care polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), and ForTii Care polyphthalamide (PPA). The materials are intended for use in a range of non-invasive medical devices and meet or exceed FDA food-contact requirements, ISO-10993, and USP Class VI guidelines. However, stringent regulations regarding plastic usage may restrain the growth of this market segment.
Segmental Outlook
The global breathable films market is segmented based on product type, technology and application. Based on product type, the market is segmented into polyethylene based, polypropylene based, polyurethane based, and other. Based on technology, the market is segmented into microporous, and monolithic. Based on application, the market is sub-segmented into hygiene & personal care, food packaging, construction, fabric, and other.
Polyethylene Held Major Market Share in Global Market
Low cost and favorable properties of polyethylene such as high absorbency, permeability, and high strength make them a suitable choice for use in making of breathable film. The high usage of these film in manufacturing facilities is driving the growth of this market segment.
Regional outlooks
The global breathable films market is further segmented based on geography, including North America (the US and Canada), Europe (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa and Latin America). North America held considerable share in the global breathable films market. The presence of key market players with their promising products, and growing expenditure on building structures, and transportation systems are some of the key factors that are contributing to the potential share of the regional market.
Global Breathable Films Market Growth, by Region 2023-2030
Asia-Pacific Held Significant Share In the Global Breathable Films Market
Asia-Pacific held significant share in the global breathable films market and is also anticipated to exhibit highest CAGR during the forecast period. The increasing demand for premium hygiene products in emerging economies such as India and China has driven the regional market growth.
The developing construction industry is further contributing to the high demand for breathable films in construction sector. According to the International Trade Administration (ITA), China is the world’s largest construction market. This market has been heavily impacted by changes in government regulations and policies. China’s 14th Five-Year Plan emphasizes new infrastructure projects in transportation, energy, water systems, and new urbanization. According to estimates, overall investment in new infrastructure during the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-2025) will reach roughly 27 trillion yuan ($ 4.2 trillion). The new plan emphasized 9 key items for energy efficiency and green building development; it also calls for retrofitting of over 350 million square meters of buildings and the construction of over 50 million square meters of net zero energy consumption buildings. Hence, with the growth in various industries in the region, the demand for market is expected to increase in the upcoming years.
Market Players Outlook
The major companies serving the global breathable films market include RKW Group, Mitsui Chemicals Inc., NITTO DENKO CORP., Arkema Group, Fatra, A.S. among others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies, including mergers and acquisitions, partnerships, collaborations, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market.
For instance, in January 2021, Astara Capital Partners has acquired the flexible packaging operations of Garlock Printing & Converting. Garlock offers an array of films – including high barrier laminates and easy open sealant and breathable films, for a variety of food and beverage applications such as coffee and tea, condiments, dairy, meat and snacks. This transaction will allow Garlock to focus on its core flexible packaging business.
