Market Overview: Multilayer blown films are engineered plastic films manufactured by combining multiple polymer layers through coextrusion or lamination processes. Unlike single-layer blown films, multilayer variants integrate materials with different refractive indices and functional properties, resulting in superior performance characteristics. These films offer excellent barrier protection against oxygen, carbon dioxide, moisture, and contaminants, along with high film strength, heat sealability, adhesion, and superior printability.

Due to these advantages, multilayer blown films are widely used in food packaging, pharmaceutical packaging, industrial packaging, and agricultural applications, including silage, mulch, and greenhouse films. Their ability to prolong shelf life, preserve product integrity, and enhance visual appeal makes them indispensable in modern packaging solutions.

Key Market Growth Drivers

Increase in Demand for Polymeric Laminates
Polymeric laminates are gaining strong traction due to their superior mechanical strength, barrier properties, and versatility. In food and beverage packaging, these laminates significantly improve shelf life while ensuring optimal protection during storage and transportation. As global consumption of packaged and processed foods continues to rise, demand for multilayer blown films is expected to remain robust.

Expansion of the Food Packaging Sector
The rapid expansion of the global food packaging industry is a major contributor to market growth. Multilayer blown films are preferred for their compliance with food safety standards, non-toxic nature, and excellent sealing properties. Their smooth and printable surfaces also allow high-quality branding, nutritional information display, and promotional messaging, enhancing brand visibility and consumer engagement.

Rise in Popularity of Coextruded Blown Films
Coextruded blown films enable manufacturers to combine multiple polymers in a single structure, delivering customized performance attributes. These films are increasingly used in medical and healthcare packaging to maintain sterility, provide microbiological barriers, and protect sensitive medical devices and pharmaceuticals.

Growing Investments in Blown Film Extrusion
Rising investments in advanced blown film extrusion facilities are further accelerating market growth. For instance, in July 2021, Pregis invested US$ 80 million in a state-of-the-art blown film extrusion facility to produce engineered films for medical device packaging. Such investments signal strong confidence in the long-term potential of multilayer blown films.
