Synthetic paper is widely used in labeling applications and is available in different grades depending on the application for which it is to be used. Synthetic paper is made of synthetic resins derived from petroleum. Synthetic paper is chemical resistant, tear resistant, oil resistance, and moisture resistant. It is commonly used for making banners, maps, charts, book covers, driving licenses, restaurant menus, and instruction manuals, among others. Synthetic paper is also used in different types of labels which are used in bags, clothes, luggage, and other products for the purpose of identification and marking.
Synthetic papers are eco-friendly, as they do not contain any natural fibers. They are also known for their 100% recyclability. Synthetic papers vary in opacity. The demand for advanced and high quality synthetic papers is gradually increasing owing to the implementation of stringent regulations by various governments for environment protection, unique properties of synthetic paper, and increased utilization of labels and tags in different products.
The Asia-Pacific region is the fastest-growing market for synthetic paper as it is one of the major consumers of synthetic paper. This is due to increase in the usage of synthetic paper in the food & beverages industries of the region. The demand for synthetic paper is increasing in the developed as well as developing countries, such as Japan, China, Taiwan, India, Australia, and other countries in the Asia-Pacific region.
To meet the growing demand for synthetic paper, several top manufacturers from the U.S. and Europe are now focusing on the Asia-Pacific region for the expansion of their synthetic paper businesses. Increasing spending capacity of the consumers in the emerging economies, such as India and China is expected to drive the demand for synthetic paper. The synthetic paper market in this region is projected to register a CAGR of 7.5% during the forecast period, 2015 to 2020.
The BOPP segment is expected to lead the global market in 2015 and account for a market share of 60.5% in the global market. It is expected to be followed by the HDPE segment. The non-label application segment dominated the global market in 2014 and accounted for a market share of 57.6%.
