Water Soluble Films Market is Expected to be Flourished by Increasing Usage in Agriculture and Chemical Industry Applications

 
Water Soluble Films Market

Water soluble films are biodegradable plastic films that dissolve in water. They find major applications in packaging such as bouillon cubes, laundry detergents, etc. where the packaging needs to be removed before use without leaving any waste. The films offer consumers a convenient way of using the product and then easily disposing of the packaging in water. They are manufactured using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), which is water soluble, as a raw material. Other common water soluble resins used are polyvinyl acetate (PVA), ethylene maleic anhydride copolymer (EMA), polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) and starch blended with PVA.


The global water soluble films market is estimated to be valued at US$ 408.14 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 9.8% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.

Market Dynamics:
One of the major drivers favoring the growth of the water soluble films market is the increasing usage of these films in agriculture and chemical industry applications. Water soluble films are widely used as fertilizer bags, agrochemical packaging etc. in the agriculture industry. Their use ensures controlled and slow release of nutrients and agrochemicals into the soil. In chemical industry, they are used for packaging of detergents, surfactants and other cleaning products. As highlighted in the heading, their ease of dissolving without leaving any waste makes them appealing for these applications. Another key driver is the stringent environmental regulations regarding use of plastics. Water soluble films are biodegradable and environmental friendly which is boosting their adoption over conventional plastic films.


Segment Analysis
The water soluble films market is segmented based on application into laundry, detergent packaging, agro-chemical packaging, pharmaceutical packaging, food packaging, and others. The detergent packaging segment dominates the market and accounted for over 30% of the overall market share in 2022. Water soluble films are widely used in detergent packaging as they helps in preventing moisture from entering the packet thereby maintaining detergent quality and shelf life.
