The Usage and Development Trend of Air Cushion Film

The Usage and Development Trend of Air Cushion Film

In recent years, the situation of the air cushion film market is relatively better. It is mainly affected by the rapid development of network sales, which drives the development of this product and industry. With the development of express delivery, the air cushion film also grows quickly, with the global output of air cushion film exceeding 30 billion square meters. And the development of air cushion film is relatively fast in developed countries, where average consumption is 16 square meters. Filling the plastic with air can increase the buffer to avoid damage by external forces. Air cushion film can effectively protect the product from damage, and can also be water-proof and moisture-proof. It's relatively good packing material.


Development of air cushion film

Air cushion film has functions of shock-proofness, damage-proofness, buffer, and moisture-proofness. It is widely used in the packaging of precision electronic instruments, handicrafts, automobiles, motorcycles, bicycle accessories, ceramic glass products, fire-fighting equipment, and furniture.


The market of plastic air cushion film packaging in developed countries, such as North America and Western Europe, has become mature and will moderate its growth. However, it is predicted that the bubble bag packaging market in developing countries will grow more strongly.  As the largest regional market, Asia accounted for 10.3% of the global market share in 2012, followed by Western Europe and North America, which account for 23% and 10.4% respectively.


Asia is also the fastest-growing market for air cushion film, whose annual compound growth rate is expected to reach 9.2% in 2012-2019. Among Asian countries, China and India are the fastest-growing countries. During this period, the growing volume of the two countries is expected to account for 35% of the growth-share of global bubble bag packaging consumption. With the continuous progress of the social economy, the packaging of products has become the first choice of products. Among them, the status of air bubble bag is getting higher and higher. The main reason is the function of the air cushion packaging bag. Because the middle layer of the air cushion packaging bag is full of air, it is light, elastic, sound-proof, shock-proof, wear-resistant, water-proof, moisture-proof and compression-resistant.


At present, with the rapid development of the packaging industry, new technologies and new materials continue to come out. Due to the increasing market demand of the packaging industry, a large amount of money flows into the packaging industry and the factory constantly introduces new processes to maintain the market freshness and market viscosity. I believe that in the next few years, the air cushion material for packaging market will have an unprecedented development opportunity.
