Food Packaging: The
major market for packaging additives (functional additives and barrier
coatings)
Food packaging is the largest application of the packaging
additives (functional additives and barrier coatings) market. It is an
important segment of the packaging industry. It accounts for more than 60% of
the global consumer plastic packaging market. Plastic resins play a major role
in food packaging owing to their low cost, mechanical strength, and ease of processing
and manufacturing. Packaging additives (functional additives and barrier
coatings) are added in plastic resins to strengthen the desired physical,
mechanical, and barrier properties.
Antioxidant: The
fastest-growing type for functional additives
Antioxidants slow down the oxidation cycle, usually by
scavenging free radicals, preventing degradation of the polymer, and retaining
the color development, mechanical, and physical properties according to the
required standards. Antioxidants improve chemical resistance of the plastics.
These are generally used in hydrocarbon polymers such as polypropylene,
polyethylene, polystyrene, and ABS. Antioxidant additives find application in
food & beverage applications.
Organic liquid
coatings: The fastest-growing type for barrier coatings
Organic liquid coatings provide protection against moisture,
oxidation, aroma, and flavor loss, and oil and grease permeation. These
coatings are generally combined with plastic resins in duplex and triplex
structure. These coatings include ethylene-vinyl alcohol (EVOH) copolymer,
polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC), and polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH). Organic liquid
coating, including PVDC, provide excellent barrier against oxygen and water
vapor in comparison to other coatings. PVDC is used in high-performance
packaging films owing to its effective barrier properties. Organic liquid
coatings are typically best suited for food and pharmaceutical packaging
applications owing to their regulatory compliance or acceptance.
Asia-Pacific and
Europe were the largest and second largest markets for packaging additives
(functional additives and barrier coatings) in 2015
Asia-Pacific is the largest market, with major developments and
investments undertaken in China and India. Europe and Asia-Pacific together
accounted for a major portion of demand for packaging additives (functional
additives and barrier coatings) in 2015. These two regions are estimated to
dominate the global market by 2020, with advanced technological developments in
these additives and coatings for end users. Asia-Pacific is projected to remain
the major market till 2020, with high investments in food and pharmaceutical
& healthcare applications owing to growing population and demand. Europe is
the second largest market for packaging additives (functional additives and
barrier coatings).
