Breathable Film is composed of micro porous structure which prevents the passage of water through coatings. Breathable film is formed by the combination of various mineral fillers for instance calcium carbonate and polymers. It is used as back-sheet materials which provide improved comfort and help to reduce skin rashes & sores. It is used for wall covering, house wraps, under-tile roofing, and facades. It provides extra security against extreme accumulation of moisture, prolongs service life, along with absorbent heat. The key benefits are included good processing, flexible breathability, lightweight nature and exceptional mechanical strength & adhesion.

Based on type, breathable film market is segmented into polypropylene, polyethylene, polyurethane polyether block amide, polyether ester and co-polyamide. Polyethylene segment holds significant growth owing to its extensive use in the one-time use products for instance baby diapers, incontinence pads, and sanitary towels. Based on product type, market is segmented into micro-void, micro-porous and non-porous. Micro-porous films are used in disposable medical products for instance surgical gowns & gloves, while non-porous breathable films are used in food packaging & textiles. In addition, based on application, market is segmented into medical & healthcare, packaging, hygiene, building & construction, sports apparels, industrial protective apparel and others. The medical segment is leading the market due to increase in demand from manufacture sector for surgical drapes, patient gowns, surgical gowns, back-table covers, mayo stand covers, operation bed covers and gloves.
The breathable film market is driven by growth in demand from buildings & construction sector, followed by rise in demand for hygiene & medical products, increase in overall packaging market, rise in demand for convenience food & beverage products, increase in health consciousness & change in consumer trends, rise in requirement for baby disposables, growth in new product developments, increase in adult incontinence products, women’s sanitation products, and surge in birth rates & aging population. However, volatile raw material prices and stagnant growth in baby diapers in developed countries may impact the market. Moreover, increase in consumption of packaged food and untapped markets with lower penetration rates are key opportunities for market.
Based on geography, China and Japan countries holds major share in breathable film market owing to growth in consumption of breathable films in end-use industries and increase in disposable income. EU and USA are expected to witness higher growth rate due to increase in expansion facilities & health care concerns over the forecast period. In near future, it is estimated that the market will be reached at fast pace on account of rise in demand for waterproof garments in sports apparels and growth in production facilities.
