In 2014 the worldwide usage of high barrier films reached a market volume of 1.76 million tons with a market value of US$15.9 billion as announced by Smithers Pira’s market report “The Future of High Barrier Packaging Films to 2019”.
Until 2019 consumption is expected to increase by 5% annually. In this context high barrier films are defined as films that are flexible, have a thickness of under 250μm and, at a thickness of 25μm, have an oxygen transmission rate of less than 5cm3/m2/24h.
The reason for the increasing usage of high barrier films is an increase in demand for packaging materials with improved product protection. This is particularly the case for food and drink but also for pharmaceutical products.
