水溶性薄膜市场 - 预测 2023-2028Water Soluble Films Market - Forecasts from 2023 to 2028 |
在包装商品中,由天然聚合物形成的水溶性薄膜发挥着重要作用。 它们充当稳定剂,防止油和水混合物分离,也用于製备一些秘製酱汁和沙拉酱。 此外,这些聚合物可以防止製作冰淇淋时冰晶的形成。 製作巧克力奶时,天然存在的水溶性聚合物使可可粉保持悬浮状态。 它还赋予奶油干酪特有的厚度,粘合青橄榄多椒片,并赋予其糖果质地。
此外,液体洗涤剂的包装是水溶性薄膜的另一个重要应用。 该应用基于利用水溶性薄膜包装来提供单位剂量水平的液体洗涤剂产品。 因此,公司正在寻求使用水溶性薄膜进行创意包装。 例如,Cortec 于 2022 年 8 月推出了 EcoSol。 EcoSol 是一种由聚乙烯醇 (PVOH) 製成的可热封薄膜,可製成用于各种应用的小袋和袋子。 EcoSol 包装的一个基本优势是,它为用户提供了一种简单实用的方法来向水中添加各种潜在成分。
清洁剂和消毒剂需求的增长预计将在预测期内支持水溶性薄膜的全球市场扩张。 例如,液体洗衣剂、消毒剂和洗衣粉通常包装在水溶性薄膜中。 从市场需求来看,各家企业纷纷涉足水溶性薄膜市场。 例如,2022 年 7 月,联合利华推出了一款新胶囊,有助于洗衣过程脱碳,同时提供卓越的清洁性能。 新的胶囊预计每年可从废物流中清除 6,000 多吨塑料。
此外,美国劳工统计局的一份报告显示,美国消费者在洗衣方面的支出正在上升,从 2020 年到 2021 年以及在预测期内,每位消费者的支出增加了 8 美元。预计将进一步增加。 随着清洁产品(尤其是洗衣产品)需求的增加,水溶性薄膜的市场也可能会增长,因为水溶性薄膜在液体洗涤剂的生产中至关重要。
P&G公司是一家消费品供应商,总部位于美国,业务遍及全球。 该公司在织物和家庭护理领域拥有多个品牌,包括Tide、Ariel 和 Downy,并在全球销售洗衣粉和其他织物护理产品。 该部门是美国跨国公司收入最大的业务部门,占公司总净销售额的35%。
根据P&G公司 2022 年年报,该公司面料和家庭护理部门的销售额从 2021 年到 2022 年增长了 6%,据报导 2022 财年净销售额达 276 亿美元。 这一增长是由市场增长和产品创新推动的,包括对 Tide Power PODS 等水溶性薄膜洗涤剂盒不断增长的需求。 根据该公司的报告,有机销售增长受到所有地区洗涤剂产品销售的影响。
在此应用中,水溶性薄膜材料用于封装洗涤剂包和洗涤剂盒。 包装中含有预定量的清洁剂,使清洁更容易,并且由水溶性薄膜製成的包装更安全,因为无需倒入粉末或液体。 这种水溶性薄膜由环保型聚乙烯醇(俗称PVOH)製成。 这些水溶性薄膜可减少浪费,并使洗涤剂包更易于运输和处理。
在纺织品製造行业中,这些薄膜在刺绣过程中充当临时稳定剂,提供接缝支撑和稳定性,确保准确、简洁的设计。 此外,水溶性薄膜还可用作热塑性材料的防粘衬里,有助于製造复杂的纤维图案。 SoluBag 由 Acedag 开发,专为包装肥料、农药和杀虫剂而设计,体现了水溶性薄膜的多功能性。 这种创新的包装解决方案完全溶于水,有助于安全、精确地分配,同时最大限度地降低暴露风险。
水溶性薄膜市场按地区划分为北美、南美、欧洲、中东和非洲以及亚太地区。 由于对环保包装解决方案的需求不断增加以及在药品、洗涤剂和农用化学品等行业的应用不断增加,北美市场预计将增长。 与此同时,由于人们对可持续发展的认识不断增强,以及在包装、农业和个人护理等各个行业的应用不断扩大,预计欧洲市场也将占据较大份额。 与此同时,由于快速的工业化、城市化以及消费者对可持续包装意识的不断增强,亚太地区预计将出现增长。
由于对可持续包装解决方案的日益关注以及在洗涤剂、农用化学品和个人护理等行业中越来越多地采用水溶性薄膜,以及对方便和环保包装的需求不断增长,美国在该市场中占有最大份额。 薄膜製造技术的不断进步,例如可生物降解和水溶性聚合物的开发,正在推动市场的增长。 这些创新使薄膜能够满足稳定性、强度和溶解度等所需的性能标准,同时提供环境效益。
EcoSol 是一种水溶性、可生物降解的聚乙烯醇 (PVOH) 薄膜,非常适合各种包装需求。 我们提供方便、安全且经济高效的解决方案,用于运输各种产品,包括洗涤剂、清洁剂、添加剂、颜料以及水溶性袋、小袋和小袋中的农产品。
同样,MonoSol 的 PVA 水溶性薄膜彻底改变了洗衣机和洗碗机洗涤剂行业,并因其可溶性单位剂量系统而受到知名消费品牌的青睐。 这些薄膜完全溶于水,可生物降解,不会造成环境污染。
In packaged goods, water-soluble films formed from natural polymers play a significant role. They act as stabilizers, preventing the separation of oil and water mixes, and are also employed in preparing several secret sauces and salad dressings. Additionally, these polymers prevent ice crystals from forming when making ice cream. Naturally occurring water-soluble polymers keep cocoa powder suspended during the creation of chocolate milk. They also provide cream cheese with its characteristic thickness, bond pimento pieces in green olives, and give candies their feel.
Furthermore, packaging liquid detergents is another significant application of water-soluble films. This application is based on delivering unit dose levels of liquid detergent goods utilizing water-soluble film packaging. Consequently, companies are even trying to investigate using water-soluble films for creative packing purposes. For instance, Cortec launched EcoSol in August 2022, which is a polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) heat-sealable film that can be formed into pouches or bags for a range of uses. The fundamental advantage of EcoSol packaging is that it gives users a simple, practical way to add a variety of potential contents to water.
Rising detergent and disinfectant demand are anticipated to support market expansion for water-soluble films worldwide during the projected period. For instance, liquid laundry detergents, disinfectants, and washing powder are frequently packaged in water-soluble films. Looking at the market demand, various companies are steeping their foot in the water-soluble films market. For instance, Unilever introduced the newly created capsule in July 2022 to assist in decarbonizing the washing process while providing excellent cleaning performance. With the new capsules, more than 6,000 tons of plastic are expected to be kept out of the waste stream each year.
Moreover, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics report shows that consumer spending on laundry in the U.S. is increasing - the spending per consumer increased by 8 U.S. dollars from 2020 to 2021 and is further expected to increase in the forecast period. As the demand for cleaning products, especially laundry, increases, the market for water-soluble films is also likely to rise as water-soluble films are vital in liquid detergent manufacturing.
Procter & Gamble, an American-based consumer goods supplier operating in countries on all continents, is involved in manufacturing and selling fabric care products, among many others. It operates multiple brands under its Fabric & Home Care segment, such as Tide, Ariel, Downy, etc., that sell laundry detergents and other fabric care products in multiple countries worldwide. This segment is the largest business segment of the American multinational in terms of sales revenues, occupying 35% of the company's total net sales.
As per the annual reports of Procter & Gamble in 2022, it is reported that the fabric & home care segment of the business experienced a 6% increase in segment revenues from 2021 to 2022 and had net segment sales worth US$27.6 billion in the fiscal year 2022. This increase in revenue is attributed to market growth and innovations in products, including the growth in demand for water-soluble film-based detergent pods such as the Tide Power PODS. As per their reports, organic sales growth was influenced by detergent product sales in every geographic region.
In this application, water-soluble film materials are used to encapsulate detergent packs or pods that consumers increasingly demand their ease of use. The packs contain predetermined doses of detergent, which make it easier to carry out cleaning chores, and it is also safer to use these packs made of water-soluble films as they remove the need to pour powders or liquids. These water-soluble films are made of environment-friendly polyvinyl alcohol, commonly referred to as PVOH. These water-soluble films also help reduce wastage and facilitate convenient transportation and handling of detergent packs.
In textile manufacturing, these films are temporary stabilizers in embroidery processes, providing support and stability during stitching and ensuring precise and clean designs. Additionally, water-soluble films act as mold-release liners for thermoplastic materials, facilitating the production of intricate and complex textile patterns. The SoluBag, developed by Acedag Ltd., exemplifies the versatility of water-soluble films by being specifically designed for packaging fertilizers, pesticides, and agrochemicals. This innovative packaging solution dissolves completely in water, promoting safe and accurate dispensing while minimizing exposure risks.
The water-soluble films market is segmented by geography as North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Asia Pacific. The North American market is estimated to grow, driven by increasing demand for eco-friendly packaging solutions and rising applications in industries such as pharmaceuticals, detergents, and agrochemicals. Simultaneously, the European market is expected to hold a significant share and is fueled by growing awareness about sustainability and expanding applications in various industries, including packaging, agriculture, and personal care. At the same time, the Asia Pacific region is projected to grow owing to rapid industrialization, urbanization, and increasing consumer awareness about sustainable packaging.
The United States holds the largest share of this market due to the growing emphasis on sustainable packaging solutions, the increasing adoption of water-soluble films in industries such as detergents, agrochemicals, and personal care, and the rising demand for convenient and eco-friendly packaging formats. Continuous advancements in film manufacturing technologies, including the development of biodegradable and water-soluble polymers, are driving the growth of the market. These innovations ensure that the films meet the required performance standards, such as stability, strength, and solubility while offering environmental benefits.
EcoSol is a polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) film that is water-soluble and biodegradable, making it an excellent choice for various packaging needs. It offers a convenient, secure, and cost-effective solution for delivering a diverse range of products, such as detergents, cleaners, additives, pigments, and agricultural products, in water-soluble bags, sachets, or pouches.
Similarly, MonoSol's PVA water-soluble films have transformed the laundry and dishwasher detergent industry with their soluble unit dose systems, favored by renowned consumer brands. These films dissolve completely in water, are biodegradable, and do not contribute to environmental pollution.
