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.

Functional additives are classified into seven types
including antioxidants, UV stabilizers, anti-block, clarifying agents,
anti-static, anti-fog, and antimicrobial. Barrier coatings include
metalized coatings, organic liquid coatings, and inorganic oxide coatings. In
terms of volume, antioxidant is the largest segment followed by anti-block.
However, in terms of value, antimicrobial additives were the largest type
segment in 2015. For barrier coatings, the metalized coatings segment accounted
for the largest share, both in terms of value and volume, in 2015.
Currently,
Asia-Pacific is the largest packaging additives (functional additives and
barrier coatings) market, accounting for more than two-fifth of the global
market size, in terms of value, in 2015. Among all the countries, China
dominates the market, closely followed by the U.S. Presence of a large number
of global as well as regional market players, well-established packaging
industry, high population, increased levels of disposable income, and changing
lifestyle are the key factors driving the market in China.
Major players, such
as BASF SE (Germany), Songwon Industrial Co. Ltd. (South Korea), Cytec- Solvay
Group (U.S.), Clariant Corp. (Switzerland), and Addivant (U.S.) have adopted
development strategies, such as capacity expansions, acquisitions, and new product
developments to achieve growth in the global market.
