Europe Agricultural Films Market Size 2022 - 2027:

Europe Agricultural Films market is anticipated to grow at a 5.77% CAGR from 2022 - 2027 and it is estimated that the Europe market was valued at USD 2.20 billion in 2021 and is relied upon to achieve USD 2.89 billion by 2026. 

Agricultural films are used for covering greenhouses and are used to cover over soil or wrapped around fodder. They aid in the improvement of crop quality and rise overall productivity. The increasing need to rise agricultural productivity to fulfill the daily requirement of the population has led to the commercialization of these specialty coverings.

Growing requirements for food owing to the rise in population coupled with the increasing requirement for optimum agricultural productivity is expected to drive market growth. The rise in requirement for high-quality crops and decline in arable land is projected to raise product requirements over the coming years. Various innovations in the industry, including Ultra Violet (UV) blocking, florescent, NIR blocking, and ultra-thermic films are expected to impact product requirements positively over the coming years. However, environmental concerns regarding product disposal and strict government regulations regarding plastics and polyethylene are expected to hamper growth in the near future and affect agricultural films market growth. However, the introduction of biodegradable and bio-based polymer films is expected to create lucrative opportunities for industry participants over the next few years. Biodegradable agricultural films are getting popular in eco-friendly regions. Technological advancements in horticulture coupled with the development of particle, multi-layer, and UV protection films to increase in agricultural productivity is expected to raise product requirement over the foreseeable future.

Market Segmentation:

Europe Agricultural Films Market – By Type:

  • LLDPE

  • LDPE
  • Reclaim
  • EVA
  • HDPE

LLDPE has the major market share in this segment and is expected to witness the fastest growth. Factors such as high durability, the extended shelf life of finished products with high tensile strength, and improved thermal properties are expected to rise market growth. Meanwhile, LLDPE and LDPE are expected to witness high requirements in the Asia Pacific, especially in China due to their applications being highly beneficial in areas with a limited water supply and harsh climatic conditions. HDPE and EVA/EBA films are used in agricultural applications, where rigidity is desired. PVC and EVOH have low market penetration owing to non-competitive prices and low durability of finished products coupled with the non-bio-degradable nature of the products.

Europe Agricultural Films Market – By Application:

  • Greenhouse Film
  • Mulch Film
  • Silage Film

Mulch film emerged as the leading application segment and accounted for the largest share of the market. Factors such as rise in requirement for high-quality crop and rise in disposable incomes is expected to drive the industry. Greenhouse is projected to witness the fastest growth. Growing greenhouse agriculture in Asia, Middle East, and Western Europe is expected to have a positive impact on the market growth. Increasing requirement for floriculture & horticulture and uncertain climatic conditions are expected to rise market penetration. Greenhouse films also help in increasing productivity and plant cultivation.

Geographical Analysis:

On the basis of geography, the market is analyzed under various regions namely

  • Germany
  • Spain
  • U.K
  • Italy
  • France

Europe is expected to witness stagnant growth in the near future owing to stringent environmental regulations regarding film disposal and manufacturing. However, shifting consumer focus towards biodegradable materials in the region is anticipated to drive industry growth

Key Players:

Some of the major players of the market are The Dow Chemical Company, BASF SE, ExxonMobil Corporation, RKW SE, Berry Plastic Group, Inc., Grupo Armando Alvarez, British Polythene Industries Plc., and Barbier Group.
