The polypropylene (PP) material segment held the largest share in the PVDC coated films market in 2021. PVDC coated and acrylic coated polypropylene films provide good water vapor transmission barrier and seal strength, which increases the characteristics of the film. Polypropylene films also provide high stiffness, aroma barrier, superior dimensional stability, oxygen & moisture barrier, and low sealing threshold, which makes them compatible for food & beverages packaging, as compared to other material films. Acrylic-coated PP films are utilized in the packaging of cigarettes, snacks, poultry, and other food items. Thus, with the growing demand for polypropylene (PP) material, the market for PVDC coated films will further rise over the forecast period.

PVDC Coated Films Market Segment Analysis – By Coating Side

The single-sided coating segment held the largest share in the PVDC coated films market in 2021. PVDC coated films are utilized in packaging snacks, meat, cheese, and other food products. These films are widely used with polyvinyl chloride (PVC), to make them compatible with pharmaceutical products packaging in the form of blister films. Also, acrylic films are mostly coated on a single side and the other side can be coated with PVDC which increases the shelf life of the perishable products. The single-side coated film is also widely used in food packaging applications since the single-sided coating of PVDC film is cost-effective as compared to double-sided coating. Thus, with the growing demand for single-sided PVDC film coating, the market for PVDC coated films will further rise over the forecast period.

PVDC Coated Films Market Segment Analysis – By Application
