Additionally, packaging films are essential in pharmaceuticals and healthcare, where they are used for blister packs and medical packaging to ensure the safety and sterility of products. The rise in e-commerce has also contributed to an increased need for packaging materials, as online retail relies heavily on protective, lightweight packaging solutions to safeguard products during transit.

Biodegradable, recyclable, and compostable films are increasingly becoming popular alternatives to traditional plastic films, offering manufacturers a chance to meet demand while aligning with sustainability goals. Moreover, advancements in packaging technologies such as active and intelligent packaging, which can enhance product shelf life and provide real-time monitoring of products, are creating new growth avenues.
