Greenhouse films Market Research (Future Insights)


The global greenhouse films market size is projected to reach approximately USD 6.6 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 8.25% from 2022 to 2030. Plastic greenhouse films are used to cover a greenhouse's roof and walls. Greenhouses assist in creating an atmosphere that is suited for plants, guarantee the uniform quality, shield fruits and vegetables from rain, wind, and frost, and speed up crop ripening. By letting only the necessary amount of light and temperature into the greenhouse, these films are available in several formats to deal with the demands of various crops, by lowering the evaporation rate, these movies aid in reducing water use. Solar irradiance, durability, and other characteristics of greenhouse films are also present. In the upcoming years, market growth is predicted to be driven by an expansion in the areas set aside for greenhouse agriculture. Additionally, as per the global greenhouse films market research, the expanding agriculture sector and the rising need for food production brought on by the world's expanding population are anticipated to fuel the global greenhouse films market expansion. Other advantageous factors are anticipated to support the demand for greenhouse films in the construction of greenhouses, thereby boosting industry growth in the global greenhouse films market forecast period. These factors include higher productivity, better insect and pest control, and efficient resource use.

  • Global Greenhouse films Market Drivers

  • Growing need for nursery-cultivated crops


The growing need for nursery-cultivated crops, expanding property area following greenhouse-maintained agriculture, and increasing focus on improving farming yield drive the greenhouse film market over the forecast period. Population growth across the globe has compelled increased agricultural output. This rising disposable income in emerging countries has caused enhanced dietary changes, thus surging the global food demand. The yearly utilization of land for agricultural crop production has impacted soil nutrient content.



  • Government programs encouraging the use of greenhouses are also promoting market expansion

  • Increasing demand for protected greenhouse cultivation


Restraints:



  • High expenses of installation


Greenhouses are commonly utilized to cultivate horticulture crops during seasons when the climatic conditions are unfavorable for plant growth. The growing price of installation of greenhouse films is restricting their use, primarily in developing countries. For instance, glass is among the traditional greenhouse covering materials, which requires expensive and durable structural systems.



  • Lack of awareness regarding greenhouse films


Opportunities:



  • The rise in technological advancements


As the area under protected cultivation increases, the focus is shifted to R&D activities to produce different types of greenhouse films by adding different properties, such as UV ray protection, NIR blocking, fluorescent, and ultra-thermic. UV-blocking films protect plants from diseases and pests. Plastic films utilized as greenhouse covers have evolved into fresh materials with enhanced mechanical and optical properties. Enhanced productivity with temporary harvest has been made possible owing to nano greenhouses. It is a greenhouse-coating raw material called cellular polycarbonate NANO.


Segment Overview


By Resin Type


The global greenhouse films market segmentation, based on resin type, is LDPE, LLDPE, HDPE, PVC, PC, EVA, and EBA. The global greenhouse films market growth was prominently high under the LDPE category in 2021. The greenhouse film market is anticipated to be driven by factors like the rising demand for the high-quality film to withstand harsh climatic conditions. The market for LDPE resin-based greenhouse film is anticipated to grow due to LDPE's superior features over other resin types, including improved thickness, optical qualities, and resistance to excessive sunlight and the outside environment. Additionally, compared to other polymer films, it is comparably cheaper and more transparent and flexible. Therefore, it is projected that these qualities would increase its use in agriculture. Because it doesn't contain plasticizers or heavy metals and doesn't release any toxic fumes or gases when burned, LDPE is anticipated to be in demand from the market.


By Thickness


The global greenhouse films market segmentation, based on thickness is <200 microns, 200 microns, and >200 microns. The <200 microns category had a major market share in 2021 due to growing benefits such as UV stability for resistance to solar aging. However, the 200 microns was the fastest growing category due to its excellent mechanical properties for adverse climatic conditions.


By Application


According to the global greenhouse films market report, based on application, the global market is divided into vegetables, fruit, and flowers & ornamentals. The flowers & ornamentals category had a prominent share in 2021. Ornamental plants contribute immensely to the quality of life. Besides this, vegetables were the fastest-growing category due to the growing demand for food among the population.
