In 2022, the domestic flexible packaging industry in the USA generated USD 41.5 billion of sales and accounted for a share of around 21% in the American packaging market. The top 10 US states account for nearly 58% of all flexible packaging manufacturing locations. These materials are extensively used by the food industry (50%), apart from pharmaceutical (16%), non-food (9%), industries (7%), beverage packaging (6%), personal care (5%), and pet food (2%). The growing demand for flexible packaging solutions is expected to increase the demand for product labels, thereby contributing to the mylar market expansion.
Moreover, the increasing demand for mylar can also be attributed to the increasing production of pharmaceuticals worldwide. India and Brazil have emerged as a manufacturing hub for medicine production, with Brazil becoming the largest pharmaceutical producer of South America. Besides, 70% of WHO’s vaccines are manufactured in India, especially BCG, DPT, and measles. The mylar market value is also being spurred on by the increasing sales and exports of medicines. While the Brazilian pharmaceutical industry generates USD 14.7 billion sales annually, India is responsible for meeting 40% of the demand for generic medicines in the United States. This is expected to raise even the market revenue over the forecast period.
Growth of the food and beverage production industry; eco-friendly innovations; increasing demand for insulation materials; and rising architectural applications are factors favouring the mylar market outlook.
This trend has spurred the mylar market growth as it can withstand extreme temperatures (-73°C to 150°C) while providing a good moisture barrier. It is also resistant to oils, greases, alcohols, hydrocarbons, acids, alkalis, and other chemicals.
The increasing demand for biodegradable/compostable mylar films has increased due to the increasing organisational focus on reducing plastic waste and making product packaging more sustainable.
Mylar possesses a dielectric strength of over 1500 volts/mil, which makes it an ideal material for insulating wires and electrical components in industries. As the electronic industry is poised for growth, mylar market development is expected to rise.
Mylar has a typical thickness of around 1-2 millimetre and some of its films have over 90% reflectivity upon exposure to visible light spectrum. This is expected to favourably increase its applications for designing architectural plans and engineering drawings.
Mylar has a comparatively high tensile strength of 20,000-30,000 psi than polyethylene (7,500 psi), which allows the usage of extremely thin films for architectural applications. The transmission rate of water vapour in 1 mil mylar is nearly 0.1 grams/100 sq. in./day, which makes it a good moisture-proof packaging material. As per the mylar market analysis, the material enjoys a high degree of abrasion resistance, which makes it ideal for numerous industrial applications involving folding, processing, or creasing.
