Market Definition
Textile films employ polymers and advanced composites with novel mechanical characteristics like strength and flexibility as well as surface attributes like hydrophobic and oleophobic. This film helps many businesses, including packaging, medicine, and technical clothing, to satisfy their demands. To improve the dyeing, printing, and bonding processes—which get more challenging as materials become more complex—surface pre-treatments and finishes are crucial procedures. The need for inventive high-performance textile films is rising, which calls for the creation of novel high-efficiency and high-value processing technologies.
Films and fabrics that have two or more layers sandwiched together. The mating surface's melting point needs to be lower than the melting points of the other layers. Thermoplastic materials have been extruded and cast into forms. The component fibers are used to categorize various textiles, including silk, wool, linen, cotton, synthetic fibers such as rayon, nylon, and polyesters, and some inorganic fibers like gold cloth, glass fiber, and asbestos fabric. Various things can be done using plastic films. This includes packaging, plastic bags, labels, architectural and landscape design, electrical fabrication, photographic film, cinema film stock, VHS (video home system), and other products.
Middle East and Africa Textile Films Market Dynamics
Drivers
- A rise in the demand for hygiene products
An increase in the need for high-quality hygiene products is driving the market growth. The demand for sanitary products and increased awareness of the value of cleanliness will likely lead to an increase in the market in the near future. Baby diapers, feminine hygiene items, and adult incontinence products all make extensive use of polypropylene films.
- High Demand for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Healthcare workers who are putting their lives in danger to fight the virus are more susceptible to infection due to their close contact with patients. The danger of COVID-19 hospital transmission is reduced by Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for frontline healthcare employees. PPE kits are necessary in industries to protect employees' lives. Gloves, goggles, a face shield, a shoe protector, a mask, a head cover, and a gown are often included in a PPE kit. The majority of PPE kits are constructed of polymers. Film composed of polyethylene or polypropylene is used to make head coverings. Nanofibers and non-woven polypropylene are used to make 3-ply masks. Natural rubber latex, nitrile rubber, neoprene, polyvinyl chloride, and polyurethane can all be used to make gloves. A film consisting of polypropylene or polyethylene is used to make disposable gowns.
Opportunities
- New fabrics and processes have been created as a result of an increase in textile film research and development
The rising technical developments by producers of textile films led to the development of new textiles and techniques, the expansion of the market with lower penetration rates, and extended profitable opportunities to the market players. In addition, the market's increasing adoption of organic textile films will further expand future market growth.
Restraints/Challenges
- Concerns regarding waste disposal
Films made of polypropylene, polyethylene, and polyurethane are frequently used in products like infant diapers, sanitary products, and medical textiles (such as surgical gowns, surgical masks, gloves, and PPE kits). Since the pandemic's emergence in 2020, all of these items have seen widespread usage. Although it is extensively used to make PPE kits, polypropylene is not biodegradable. This makes the problem of plastic trash, which already exists, worse. The market may face difficulties as a result of these waste disposal issues.
