The polypropylene film manufactured by using cast polypropylene offers outstanding transparency and external gloss. Cast polypropylene is an extraordinary material used in packaging of various products from bread to snacks and fresh produce. It is also used as a sealant film for retort and non-retort purposes. It has excellent heat sealing properties. Cast polypropylene is a low-density film with excellent tear resistance as well as impact resistance.
Key factors driving the demand for cast polypropylene packaging films across the globe are rising consumption of convenience food, high demand for packaging solutions that enhance shelf life, and growing preference for cost-effective films with a high moisture barrier. The cast polypropylene packaging films market in Asia Pacific and Middle East & Africa was promising in the past. This was attributable to rapid urbanization, growing population, and increasing disposable income of middle-class families in these regions. The outlook for the market in Asia Pacific appears promising for the forecast period also.
