BOPP Films Market to Grow with a CAGR of 5.27% through 2030

Rising awareness about hygiene foods or products and growing demand from packaging industries are factors to drive the demand for the global BOPP Films market in the forecast period, 2026-2030.

According to TechSci Research report, “BOPP Films Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2030”, The Global BOPP Films Market was valued at USD 28.47 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 38.74 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 5.27% during the forecast period. Rising awareness about hygienic foods and growing packaging industries are the primary factors that will positively affect the BOPP Films market's share. According to the WHO report, more than one million tons of traditional plastic are drained into the seas yearly, affecting the life of the whole ecosystem. Hence, there is a rising shift towards a recyclable substitute like BOPP, which is expected to directly impact the BOPP films market growth in the projected period.

The constant variation in the price of petroleum led to the instability in the cost price of the raw material of BOPP films. Apart from this, stringent regulations related to the manufacturing of biaxially oriented polypropylene across developed countries in Europe and North America is expected to slow down  the market's growth in the coming years.

The global BOPP Films market is segmented into type, thickness, production process, application, regional distribution, and company. 

Based on Thickness, the 15–30 microns category shows the fastest growth in the global BOPP films market. This thickness range is widely preferred because it provides an optimal balance between flexibility, durability, and cost-effectiveness, making it suitable for diverse packaging needs across food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, and personal care industries. Unlike thinner films (below 15 microns), which are prone to tearing, or thicker films (above 45 microns), which are costlier and less eco-friendly, BOPP films in the 15–30 microns range offer superior mechanical properties, excellent sealing ability, and high transparency—critical features for modern packaging. The growth in this category is closely tied to the rising demand for flexible packaging in emerging economies. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), global packaged food demand is projected to grow at nearly 4% annually, with Asia-Pacific leading consumption due to urbanization and changing lifestyles. In India, the Ministry of Commerce and Industry reported that processed food exports grew by 26.5% in 2022, much of which relied on flexible films in the 15–30 microns range for packaging. Similarly, China’s National Bureau of Statistics highlighted that its food and beverage packaging sector expanded by 8% in 2023, with mid-thickness BOPP films being the dominant choice for snacks, dairy, and confectionery.

Based on the Region, Asia Pacific shows the fastest growth in the global BOPP films market, driven by rapid industrialization, rising consumption of packaged foods, and expanding retail and e-commerce sectors across major economies such as China, India, Japan, and Southeast Asian countries. The region has witnessed a surge in demand for flexible packaging solutions, particularly in food and beverage applications, due to changing consumer lifestyles and increasing urbanization. According to the United Nations, more than 50% of Asia’s population now lives in urban areas, fueling demand for ready-to-eat meals and packaged products, which directly supports the consumption of BOPP films. China remains the largest contributor, with its packaging industry valued at over USD 450 billion in 2023 (National Bureau of Statistics of China), making it the world’s largest packaging market. India is also emerging as a key growth hub, with the Ministry of Food Processing Industries reporting steady double-digit growth in the packaged food sector. Furthermore, supportive government initiatives such as India’s “Make in India” campaign and China’s “Green Packaging Standards” are pushing for sustainable and recyclable materials, further encouraging the adoption of BOPP films. The booming e-commerce market, valued at over USD 2 trillion in Asia Pacific in 2023 (UNCTAD), is another major driver of growth, as it requires safe, lightweight, and durable packaging. With a large consumer base, rising disposable incomes, and increasing investments in packaging manufacturing facilities, Asia Pacific is expected to remain the fastest-growing regional market for BOPP films in the coming years.
