Market Dynamics
Introduction
Construction films are thin sheets of plastic made from polymers, which are long chains of repeating molecules. The type of plastic resin used to make a construction film determines its unique properties, such as elasticity, flexibility, and durability. These properties make construction films ideal for a variety of applications, such as dust protection, moisture barriers, and insulation.
Construction films are used in various applications for protecting valuable equipment and machinery against dust, dirt, and dampness. Construction films are of different materials, such as LLDPE, LDPE, HDPE, PP, PVC, PVB, PET/BOPET, BOPA, and others. They are used in different applications, such as barriers & protection, decorative, and others.
Market Drivers
The construction films market is driven by several factors, including:
- Increasing construction activity: The construction industry is growing rapidly across the globe, driven by factors such as urbanization, population growth, and economic development. In India, the government is also investing in infrastructure development projects, such as the Smart Cities Mission and the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY). This is also leading to increased demand for construction films.
- The rising number of green building projects: The rising number of green building projects is another major driver of the construction film market. Green buildings are designed and constructed to minimize their environmental impact and improve their energy efficiency. The government's Green Building Rating System (GBRS) is a voluntary rating system that encourages the construction of green buildings. To achieve GBRS certification, buildings must meet certain criteria in several areas, including energy efficiency, water efficiency, and indoor air quality.
- Rapid industrialization and urbanization: Rapid industrialization and urbanization are two of the key drivers of the construction films market. Industrialization is the process of transforming an economy from a primarily agricultural one to a primarily industrial one. Urbanization is the process of people moving from rural areas to cities. The government is investing heavily in infrastructure development projects, such as roads, bridges, and railways. This is leading to increased demand for construction films used in these projects.
