Aluminum Oxide Coated Films Market

Global Aluminum Oxide Coated Films Market Overview

The role of packaging in healthcare, food, beverage, premium cosmetics and few industries is significant for the protection of products from environmental conditions. Various barrier materials such as ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH), polyvinylidene dene chloride (PVdC) and others are incorporated widely for a barrier against moisture, oxygen, and odor.

These high barrier materials cost much higher than the aluminum oxide coated films due to limited availability. Aluminum oxide coated films combines the low cost and high machinability for the production of packaging products, with the barrier properties of aluminum oxide. These factors have driven the aluminum oxide coated films.

The below data shows that aluminum material was accounted for around 20% of the high barrier packaging films for pharmaceutical industry. This includes aluminum foil, aluminum sheet and the aluminum oxide coated films.

Global Aluminum Oxide Coated Films Market Developments

The aluminum oxide coated films provides sufficient barrier characteristics to the packaging. Moreover, for the application in premium products which cannot afford even low intensity of contamination, barrier films such as ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) and polyamide (PA) are used as a substrate for barrier coating and results into highly efficient barrier material for packaging applications.

Multilayer polyolefin films are used as a substrate for aluminum oxide coated films which results in additional features such as heat sealing, adhesive, high printability and others. The major driving factor of aluminum oxide coated films market is the transparency.

Due to the high preference for transparent packaging in food and some other consumer products added to the high barrier property, aluminum oxide coated films are one of the leading material for producing primary packaging products.

Due to the high availability of aluminum in Asia Pacific region, the cost of aluminum oxide coating is a comparatively low region, the production of oxide coated films is expected to be the largest in the region. The demand for packaged foods and healthcare products is very high in the North America market, indicating a large opportunity for aluminum oxide coated films market in the region.
