Water Soluble Films Market, By Type (Cold Water-soluble Films and Hot Watersoluble Films), By Dissolution Rate (Fast Soluble Films, Medium Soluble Films, and Difficult Soluble Films), By End-User Industry (Packaging, Textile, Pharmaceuticals, and Other End-user Industries), By Geography (North America, Latin America, Europe, Middle East & Africa, and Asia Pacific)
Water soluble films are widely used for unit-dose packaging of detergents, agrochemicals, food ingredients, pharmaceuticals, and water treatment chemicals. These films dissolve in water within minutes and leave no toxic residue in nature after its dissolution in water. These films are manufactured from polyvinyl resins and are synonymously called PVA or PVOH films. Water soluble films are ideal for a variety of packaging applications. The global water soluble films market is experiencing strong growth due to the rise in use of water soluble films, the increase in applications of water soluble films, and the rise in demand for detergent and disinfectant across the world. Moreover, an increase in the use of single-and unit-dose packaging in various end-use industries is expected to boost the growth of the market.
Market Dynamics:
A rise in use of water soluble films or increase in applications of water soluble films, increase in use of single and unit dose packaging in various end-use industries, the focus of governments on green procurement policies, and increasing applications in the powdered chemical in packaging sector are major factors expected to aid in the growth of the global water soluble films market.
For instance, in August 2022, TIPA and Aquapak teamed up to develop new compostable film solutions. TIPA will incorporate Aquapak’s water-soluble polymer technology with the aim of delivering high-barrier and PVDC-free compostable films for packaging. Moreover, in October 2020, Cortec Corporation announced that its patented EcoSol water soluble pouches are now being manufactured at the company's European bioplastics plant in Croatia to meet the needs of European and Asian customers.
