HIGH-PERFORMANCE BARRIER FILMS: Examining Global Trends from Our Perspective
The global packaging market is huge; offering many opportunities in barrier packaging, led by flexibles.
N. America and Europe account for roughly 55% of global packaging value, but growing at slower rates than rapidly developing regions such as Asia
Global Packaging Market(value of shipments-all structures)
$450 Billion
Annual Growth2-3%
(>5% Asia)
High-performance barrier packaging films is specific, as follows.
Film structures providing high barrier levels to oxygen, water vapor,aromas/flavors, and/or UV light
– A barrier film is usually a coextruded, coated, or metallized substrate
– Barrier components include PVdC resin/coating, EVOH, nylon, MET films,or Al2O3 or SiOx
– But excludes all structures that use Al foil as the barrier, paper as astructural member, or MET films used only for graphic enhancement
Film structures <10 mil (e.g. multilayers of printed layer, barrier & sealant)
Includes film structure laminations (with a barrier film), or a coextrusioncontaining a layer of barrier resin, or a substrate coated with a barriermaterial that might also function as a sealant
A mono-structure of only barrier film is very rare; real value is created when the barrier film is a ‘component’ that enables the final package
The market for H.P. barrier packaging films is positively influenced by many factors.

In perishable food, consumption of barrier films for fresh-meat applications is to grow AAGR of 5.6%.
Key Stats: Fresh Red Meat:•$720-740 MIL Film•5.6% Growth/yr•82% of Perishables•67% of Barrier Pkg
Examples:•Case-ready red meat focus•Pork & poultry alreadycase-ready & maturing
Penetration of case-ready meat to drive growth of barrier films
Trend toward the production of more case-ready red-meat products
Increase in the use of shrink bags for case-ready and value-added products
Refrigerated space allocated for fresh meat expected to decline, asconsumers demand convenience products; i.e. need increased O2 barrier &shelf life
StructureFilm Markets
Processed meat, cheese and dairy segments will exhibit more steady growth, at about 3-3.5%.
Key Stats: Proc. meats, cheese, dairy:•$100-110 MIL Film•3-3.5% Growth/yr•14% of Perishables•11% of Barrier Pkg
Examples:•Deli meat & cheese slices•Natural chunk cheese•Milk, pudding, yogurt
The image of processed meats (deli) as unhealthy is changing, with someproducts now viewed by consumers as convenient sources of protein
The use of barrier films to package cheese will continue to increase asconsumers’ preference for natural cheese continues to grow at the expense ofprocessed cheese that requires less barrier packaging
Consumer demand for smaller, more convenient packages will contribute to theincrease in barrier film consumption
Cost reduction will continue to drive the trend toward replacement oflaminations with coextrusion technology
StructureFilm Markets
In dry-foods, consumption of barrier films for dry-mixes is forecast strong AAGR of 4.2%.
Key Stats: Dry mixes:•$25-30 MIL Film•4.2% Growth/yr•12% of Dry Foods•2% of Barrier Pkg
Examples:•Cake mixes•Pudding powder•Powder flavoring
The dry food category is much smaller than perishables at about $250 MIL,or 20% of barrier film share
Dry mixes is a relatively small part of the dry food category, driven byconsumer preference for standup pouches and away from rigid packaging
To reduce investment risk, many companies are increasing the use ofcontract packagers as a means of converting to standup pouches
Trend toward clear packaging to view contents favors clear barrier filmsolutions
StructureFilm Markets
Snack-foods & baked-snacks to have respective modest growth, at AAGR of 2.3% & 2% each.
Key Stats: Snack food/baked-snacks:•$160-170 MIL Film•2-2.5% Growth/yr•79% of Dry Foods•16% of Barrier Pkg
Examples:•Chips, nuts, cookies, driedfruits, raisins, etc
•Baked (healthy snacks) –no preservatives
One of the biggest trends in snack foods is the move toward productspackaged in single servings that are easily portable and consumed on-the-go; we work 24/7, have a family and need convenience
The snack food category will continue to move away from rigidcontainers in favor of flexible packaging (SUP), with new introductions bymajor suppliers of snack nuts, cookies, and most recently, crackers
The use of barrier films in the baked-snack segment is expected toincrease overall, driven by consumer desire for healthier products thatrequire more protection from moisture and oxygen to retain freshness
StructureFilm Markets
High-growth expected in perishable foods for EVOH & Al2O3-PET films (8%+); in dry-foods PVdC-PET (9.2%).

Primary converters of shrink bags for fresh & processed meat entrenched in PVdC CoEx-tech.
Although PVdC is inherently difficult to process, primary converters of shrink bags for packaging fresh and processed meat (Cryovac, Curwood,and Amcor) are entrenched in PVdC coextrusion technology for narrow web
Dow has introduced patented encapsulation technology to blow multilayerfilm and for producing wider width substrate. Licensing of this technology islikely to spur growth of PVdC resin for blown multilayer film
New growth markets for PVdC include lid stock and retort applications forprepared foods, which require moisture stability
Despite environmental issues, PVdC is still widely used for shrink bags inEurope, and its use in the U.S. does not appear to be a threatened

Increase in the use of PVdC-coated PET lid stock for packaging preparedfoods – MAP, hot-fill and retort
The use of PVdC-coated PET in packaging processed meats will decline
Lamination and coating processes are being displaced by coextrusions
However, PVdC-coated PET, commonly used as the inner ply of standuppouches for snack foods, dry mixes, and pet food, is expect to grow forapplications requiring clarity
BARRIER COATED FILMS
Barrier Coated Moisture Barrier Films on BOPP, on PET and on NYLON
are specially coated films to enhance Moisture Barrier and Oxygen
Barrier. There are able to reduce Moisture Barrier and Oxygen Barrier by
more than 50 % of uncoated plain films. It is also more cost effective than
PVDC and EVOH. The Barrier Coating materials is 100% Waterbased.
And this film totally environmentally friendly. It is proven to be more
cost effective, when compared to 3 or 4 layers laminating structures
without compromising the Moisture/Oxygen Barrier of the Packaging.
Most importantly these Films are able to reduce Carbon Footprint in
Flexible Packaging by minimum 10%.

In pharmaceuticals, flexible H.P. barrier packaging is insignificant; growth of unit-dose blister packs
The pharmaceutical segment is comprised of prescription drugs, medications, and dietarysupplements sold over-the-counter (OTC)World demand for pharma packaging to reach $24 BIL in 2009, increasing 4-5% annually.80% of demand from the US, Japan, China, Germany, France, UK, Italy, & Switzerland. The USwill remain the largest consumer driven by aging baby boomersBlister packaging is the fastest-growing segment of the pharma market. Worldwide demandexpected to grow 7% AAGR, reaching $5.6 BIL by 2009, driven by unit dose & sterile applicationsIt is estimated that less than 1% of all pharmaceuticals are packaged in barrier films, as definedby our definition and therefore not a significant consuming segment of barrier filmsHowever, future barrier may be needed to maintain drug potency or inhibit degradation. Amoisture barrier is critical for gels or liquids, sensitive to moisture loss. Foil used for UV barrierIn addition to unit-dose blister packs, companies are converting to flexible pouchesUnit doses maintain the ‘five rights’ of medicine monitoring: Right patient, right drug, right dose,right time, and right route of administration. Thus safer & tamper resistantNew delivery systems, nasal, transdermal and parenterals in home-care and self-care applicationsalso growing - not having to visit a doctor’s office cuts costs and saves timeKey trend is aging population - 75% of pharma consumers are senior citizens
– Healthy lifestyle & fitness craze has fuel popularity of vitamins and dietary supplements– The market for cosmeceuticals also experiencing rapid growth - aged refuse to look old– Opportunities exist for the growth of barrier films in alternative pharma delivery. The use of
Al2O3- and SiOx-coated films are expected to grow in niche applications
