The PU films market is projected to grow from USD 449.0 million in 2018 to USD 688.6 million by 2023, at a CAGR of 8.9% during the forecast period. The growth of the PU films market can be attributed to the rising demand for luxury cars and premium passenger cars. PU films are mainly consumed for the paint protection application in the automotive industry.
Based on type, the PU films market has been segmented into polyester PU films and polyether PU films. The polyester PU films segment is estimated to account for a larger share of the PU films market in 2018 than the polyether PU films segment due to the low cost of polyester PU films and its high demand in the textile & leisure industry.
Based on function, the PU films market has been segmented into thermoplastic-based PU films and thermoset-based PU films. Thermoplastic-based PU films accounted for the larger market share in the PU films market owing to its easy processability and its major applications areas. This segment is also expected to register the higher CAGR during the forecast period.
Based on end-use industry, the PU films market has been segmented into automotive & aerospace, textile & leisure, and medical. The textile & leisure end-use industry segment is estimated to account for the largest share of the PU films market in 2018. The increasing use of PU films in the manufacturing of textiles is expected to drive the demand of PU films in the textile & leisure industry. This industry is also expected to register the highest CAGR in the PU films market during the forecast period.
Based on region, the PU films market has been segmented into APAC, North America, Europe, and RoW. The APAC region is expected to lead the PU films market during the forecast period. The growth of the APAC PU films market can be attributed to the rising demand for luxury and premium automobiles, which use PU films for paint protection application. The presence of large textile & leisure exporting economies such as China and India drives the demand for PU films across the region.
PU films are costlier than other substitute films available in the markets. Many local and small-scale manufacturers produce PU blend films, which are cheaper than PU films. The consumers from the APAC market are inclined toward the use of cheaper films. This scenario is restraining the growth of the PU films market in APAC.
The key players operating in the PU films market include Covestro (Germany), SWM International (US), 3M Company (US), Avery Dennison (US), and DingZing Advanced Materials (Taiwan). These leading players have adopted various growth strategies such as new product launches, acquisitions, mergers, expansions, partnerships, and joint ventures to strengthen their position in the PU films market and widen their customer base. For instance, in 2018, Covestro announced to expand its films production capacity at four locations, namely, Thailand, the US, China, and Germany. This expansion is intended to meet the growing demand for films in these markets. The company is planning to invest more than USD 116 million at these locations.
