세계의 지속가능 배리어 코팅 시장 전망(-2030년)

Key facts:

• Thermoplastic polymers are the largest group of sustainable polymers with consumption forecast at 3.07 million tonnes to 2030.
• The global sustainable barriers market has a CAGR of 4.8% for the years 2025-2030

Sustainable barrier coatings for packaging are as materials that provide effective barrier properties while minimizing environmental impact through recyclability, biodegradability and the use of biobased materials. This report highlights the importance of recyclability, dissecting the market by key drivers, process, end use, coating type and region.

The market remains dominated by traditional materials such as thermoplastic polymers although alternative materials, including biobased and natural polymer coatings are starting to take hold as brand-owners and packaging manufacturers' develop sustainability strategies.

Growth for sustainable barrier coatings in packaging is expected to be steady overall, with a strong link to forecast GDP growth, in particular for biobased polymers.

This report is essential to:

• Packaging raw material suppliers
• Packaging converters and manufacturers
• Retailers and brand owners

Key Questions:

• Where is the focus of sustainability efforts across global coatings markets?
• How to paper substrates compare to plastic substrates in coating sustainability?
• How have sustainability regulations impacted the use of coatings?
• Does the market favour recyclability over biodegradability ?
