Construction Films Market Outlook - 2030
The global construction films market size was valued at $8.0 billion in 2020, and is projected to reach $14.6 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 6.3% from 2020 to 2030.
Construction films are plastic films that are made from polymeric materials and fabricated out of different plastic resins, each with its very own unique physical properties that are typically suited for various applications due to characteristics such as elasticity, flexibility, and durability. These films are generally preferred for covering building structures and machinery to protect them from extreme weather conditions such as snowfall, hailstorms, rains, dust, and debris.
The increasing construction activity across the globe, particularly in Asia-Pacific, and the requirement for energy-efficient systems in buildings are the primary drivers for the construction film market expansion. Furthermore, due to the spike in demand for lower-cost plastic sheeting, the competitive market for manufacturers in the construction and agriculture film (C&A film) market is constantly innovating on these plastic sheeting, and high-performance films are projected to contribute to market growth. In addition, these films are environmentally friendly and easily recyclable, aiding in the enhancement of environmental qualities, which is expected to drive the construction film market growth during the forecast period. However, stringent guidelines set by governmental organizations such as American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and European Union (EU), limiting the utilization of non-biodegradable plastics in North America and Europe is expected to be the most significant restraint for the construction film market.
The construction films market is segmented on the basis of type, application, end use, and region. Depending on type, the market is categorized into LDPE and LLDPE, HDPE, polypropylene (PP)/BOPP, PET/BOPET, polyamide/BOPA, PVB, PVC, and others.
On the basis of application, it is divided into gas & moisture barrier, vapor barrier, curing blanket, and others. On the basis of end use, it is classified into residential, commercial, industrial, and others. Region-wise, construction films market report is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.

Analyst Review
According to the CXOs of leading companies, the construction films market registered a dynamic growth over the past few years, owing to drastic growth in industries, such as construction, pharmaceutical, and oil & gas, and chemical developing countries such as India, China, Japan, and others. Construction film is a general purpose polymer film widely used in the construction projects due to its superior properties such as water & gas barrier and ultraviolet protection. These films are used in various industries such as construction and agriculture.
Increasing use of building systems due to rising demand for high-quality energy-efficient homes is propelling the construction films market globally. The speed and efficiency of modular building system are further driving the market growth. Growing use of construction films during the curing process of concrete due to the ability to maintain hydration and inhibit moisture loss is fuelling the product demand. The product demand is increasing from the construction sites containing risk factors for naturally occurring sites due to strong gas barrier properties.
Significant increase in construction activities and rise in need for construction films for noise cancellation & moisture resistance act as the major driving factors of the global construction film market.
The global construction films market was valued at $14.6 billion in 2030
Berry Global, Eastman Chemical Company, E.I. du Pont de Nemours, Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, Mondi, Raven Industries are the top players in construction films market.

Type, application, end use segments are covered in construction films market report
The rising number of green building projects, stringent regulations aimed at reducing the carbon and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, and rapid industrialization and urbanization, especially in emerging economies like Asia Pacific, are projected to drive the global market.
Gas & moisture barrier and vapor barrier are the major applications which is expected to drive the adoption of construction films.
The COVID-19 outbreak is hampering the demand for construction films in many applications. Many governments of countries across the globe have enforced lockdown as a measure to curb the spread of the pandemic. This has resulted in the slowdown and halt in manufacturing operations, restrictions on supply and transport, and infrastructure slowdown. In turn, this has adversely affected the demand for construction films.
