Global Breathable Films Market, 2024-2030

The polymers are used to derive the films. The polymers that are essentially used in breathable films are polyurethane, polyethylene, polypropylene and others which comprise polyester thermoplastic elastomers, block amide polyether, co-polyamide and co-polyester.
