Dinámica del mercado de películas de embalaje solubles en agua

En esta sección se aborda la comprensión de los factores impulsores del mercado, las ventajas, las oportunidades, las limitaciones y los desafíos. Todo esto se analiza en detalle a continuación:

Conductores

• Aumento de la demanda en el sector agrícola

La demanda de mejores rendimientos de los cultivos aumenta a medida que crece la población mundial, lo que ha aumentado el enfoque en la mejora del rendimiento de los cultivos en todo el mundo. Se utilizan diversos agroquímicos y, según el tipo de cultivo, se requiere una dosis más segura y óptima. Esto ayudará a aumentar la demanda de envases de película soluble en agua porque se puede envasar la cantidad correcta de producto químico, lo que hace que su uso sea seguro porque los productos químicos se pueden usar directamente sin quitar la película soluble en agua del envase. El agua de riego se puede tratar con productos químicos para proporcionar nutrientes esenciales a los cultivos. Los productos químicos agrícolas son tóxicos por naturaleza, causan contaminación y ponen en peligro la salud de los seres vivos. Como resultado, una cantidad limitada o requerida en paquetes más pequeños puede funcionar de manera eficiente y, al mismo tiempo, reducir la contaminación del medio ambiente.

• Alta demanda de envases sostenibles

Los envases sostenibles están hechos de materiales biodegradables y ayudan a reducir el daño ambiental. La creciente conciencia pública sobre los problemas ambientales ha dado como resultado una mayor demanda de envases y operaciones de procesamiento respetuosos con el medio ambiente tanto en los países desarrollados como en los países en desarrollo. Además, la expansión de varias industrias y fábricas ha aumentado la demanda de una solución de envasado sostenible en los últimos años. Debido a que la industria del envasado tiene el mayor impacto ambiental, la demanda de soluciones de envasado ecológicas impulsa el crecimiento del mercado de envases solubles en agua. Los consumidores están cada vez más preocupados por la protección del medio ambiente, la sostenibilidad, la ética, la seguridad, el costo del producto y la calidad al comprar productos. Como resultado, se proyecta que el mercado de películas de envasado solubles en agua tendrá un crecimiento acelerado durante el período de pronóstico.

• Expansión de la industria farmacéutica

In emerging economies, the pharmaceutical industry is expanding rapidly. Advanced manufacturing processes, technological innovations, and increased company integration have resulted in the industry's rapid growth. The pharmaceutical industry's expansion is propelling the market for water soluble films. The fastest growth is expected in emerging economies such as Brazil, Russia, India, and China. Increasing income levels and growing awareness of the benefits of good healthcare systems and healthier lifestyles are driving market growth in these countries. According to the World Bank, healthcare expenditure in Brazil, China, and India in 2019 was approximately 9.5 percent, 5.1 percent, and 3.5 percent of GDP, respectively, representing a significant increase from 2015.

Furthermore, these films are used to package detergents, agrochemicals, water treatment chemicals, food ingredients, pharmaceutical drugs, and dyes in specific unit doses. Aside from that, the films are used in the production of embroidery and laundry bags.

Opportunities

• Consumer Preference and Government Policies

Furthermore, shift in consumer preference toward eco-friendly packaging and other applications in the agriculture and composting industries further extend profitable opportunities to the market players in the forecast period of 2022 to 2029. Additionally, the positive attitude of governments on green procurement policies will further expand the future growth of the water soluble packaging films market.

Restraints/Challenges

• High Costs

The high cost of water soluble packaging films is a major impediment to market growth. The water soluble packaging films typically has a production cost that is 60-140 percent higher than conventional plastic films. This is primarily due to the high polymerization cost of biodegradable plastics, as most processes are still in development and have not yet achieved economies of scale. Higher research and development and production costs due to small-scale production, as well as the significant price difference between water soluble packaging films and traditional petroleum-based plastics, are key factors limiting the penetration of water soluble packaging films across various industries.

• Supply Chain Disruptions

With the rising number of restrictions around the globe due to pandemic, there has been a hit in the demand and supply of packaging solutions. Also, the fluctuations in the prices of raw materials will prove to be a demerit for the water soluble packaging films market. As a result, this factor will challenge the water soluble packaging films market growth rate.
