Vacuum shrink films
are also termed vacuum shrink wraps, which are essentially plastic
films. The most commonly used process for wrapping using vacuum shrink
films is to hermetically seal the product. Vacuum packaging technology
is rapidly gaining market share as one of the most preferred meat
packaging technologies. Vacuum shrink films protect the food product
from microbes, and enhance the shelf life of the product. Shrink
wrapping includes the placing of small vent holes in the shrink film,
which allow the film to allow air to escape the package. Hence the
package is not completely sealed from external elements.
Due to the exposure to oxygen, vacuum
shrink packaging gains an edge over its counterpart ‘vacuum skin
packaging’, which does not allow exposure to oxygen. Vacuum skin
packaging results in a purple appearance of the meat product, due to the
unavailability of Oxygen. Since more consumers have the perception of
associating the reddish appearance of a food product with the term
‘fresh’, vacuum shrink packaging might witness an increase in
preference, during the forecast period. Therefore, vacuum shrink films
are anticipated to witness moderate to high growth, during the forecast
period.
The global food packaging industry has
undergone significant changes in the past couple of decades. Active,
smart, and intelligent packaging technologies are expected to
significantly gain market share, across the world. Food packaging
technologies such as Vacuum Skin Packaging, Vacuum Shrink Packaging, and
Modified Atmosphere Packaging are anticipated to become the ideal
packaging formats for products such as fresh produce, meat, poultry, and
seafood, among others. Several factors are expected to play a key role
in the growth of the global vacuum shrink films market. These include,
change in consumer preferences in developing countries, and an
inclination towards packaged food and case-ready meals.

This is a result of increasing ease of
access, with growing penetration of modern retail formats. In addition,
growth in modern trade, and rising disposable per capita income also
contribute significantly to the increasing preference for vacuum shrink
packaged food. Rising demand from end markets such as food industry is
increasing the demand for multi-layer films. In May 2016, packaging firm
Krehalon based in Netherlands rolled out a new line of shrink films
brand known as SSL. SSL uses a material that fuses the inner layer of
films through vacuum packaging and hot water shrinkage. Therefore,
innovative concepts such as this, are expected to continue to shape the
global vacuum shrink films market, during the forecast period.
