Global BOPP Film Market is valued approximately USD 29.4 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 4.7% over the forecast period 2023-2030. BOPP stands for Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene film. It’s a thin, flexible, translucent plastic film that’s widely used in packaging and labelling. BOPP film is made by stretching polypropylene film in two directions, lengthwise and across, to enhance its strength, clarity, and stiffness. This biaxial orientation method also improves moisture resistance, making the film an appropriate material for food packaging. The main drivers of this market are the expansion of food packaging and the growing demand for UV light barrier films. The pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries are also essential end-user industries for BOPP films because the films have excellent sealing properties and act as an excellent oxygen barrier, avoiding oxidation of the chemicals present in medicines and cosmetic items.
Growing consumer demand for small, light-weight packaging is driving the market for BOPP films in food packaging. Food that has been packed or is ready to eat is one of the sectors growing the fastest, especially in urban areas. The accelerated pace of urban life, as well as the sharp growth in wealth and level of living, are driving up the use of packaged foods. According to the most current UN estimate the population of the world has quadrupled in the previous century. There were 1.8 billion people on the planet in 1915, there are 7.3 billion people on the planet right now, and by 2050 that number might increase to 9.7 billion. Global food consumption is increasing as a result of this expansion and increasing wealth in emerging nations (which lead to dietary changes like consuming more meat and protein). Additionally, the expansion of the e-commerce business has raised the demand for long-lasting and safe packing materials that can preserve items throughout transit and also Sustainable packaging solutions are in high demand. BOPP film is recyclable and frequently utilized in the creation of eco-friendly packaging, providing enterprises with an opportunity to create and market sustainable packaging solutions. However, stringent regulates on the manufacture of Biaxially oriented polypropylene films in some countries are projected to hinder the industry’s overall growth.
The key regions considered for the Global BOPP Film Market study includes Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific dominated the market in 2022 owing as a result of stringent laws and regulations imposed by governments and governing bodies, as well as a shift in consumer preferences towards recyclable and eco-friendly packaging materials, the eco-friendly food packaging industry has been growing. North America is expected to grow significantly during the forecast period, owing to factors such as increasing demand for flexible packaging, BOPP Films, which are adaptable, lightweight, eco-friendly, and efficient packaging materials, are highly preferred for packaging and laminated material applications in the regions, which will drive the market for BOPP Films in the coming years.
