Market Overview

Biaxially oriented polypropylene films BOPP films serve as the ideal packaging solution for food products, consumer goods and industrial applications because of their exceptional product clarity and barrier performance and their ability to withstand high tension. BOPP films provide multiple benefits over conventional packaging materials because they decrease packaging weight and extend product shelf life, and they deliver cost savings. The material serves three main functions, which include pharmaceutical blister packaging, tobacco wrapping and manufacturing electrical capacitor-grade films.

In June 2025, Yangzhou Boheng and Bruckner Maschinenbau successfully commissioned an all-new BOPET film production line for composite current collector film technology (CCCF).

Cosmo First commissioned its new BOPP packaging manufacturing line, which utilizes the most advanced technology and has a capital expenditure of Rs 400 crores. The packaging market experiences growth because foreign direct investments (FDI) in the packaging sector increase throughout India and China, which helps develop local manufacturing plants and technological expertise. The ongoing development of stretch film technology creates better mechanical properties, which make BOPP films more useful for industrial use and increase their market share.
