Barrier Resins Market Introduction and Overview
According to SPER Market Research, the Global Barrier Resins Market is estimated to reach USD 24.15 billion by 2034 with a CAGR 5.58%.
The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Global Barrier Resins Market, including market size and trends, product mix, Applications, and supplier analysis. The global Barrier Resins Market was valued at USD 14.03 billion in 2024 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 48.08% from 2025 to 2034. The barrier resin market is propelled by rising demand for sustainable, high-performance packaging in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical sectors. Strict regulations and a focus on sustainability further boost adoption. Materials like EVOH, PVDC, and PET are commonly used to extend shelf life by blocking oxygen, moisture, and gases. With consumers favoring fresh, minimally processed products, manufacturers are embracing advanced packaging for safety and longevity. Additionally, the growth of e-commerce and online grocery shopping has increased the need for durable, lightweight packaging that protects products during transit, driving market growth.
By Resin Type:
The ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) segment leads the barrier resin market, valued for maintaining freshness and quality in pouches, trays, and bottles. Its compatibility with other materials and incorporation into recyclable packaging support sustainability trends, while growing demand for packaged foods and production advancements drive continued growth. Polyethylene Naphthalate (PEN) is gaining popularity due to its thermal stability, chemical resistance, and excellent barrier properties, making it ideal for specialty packaging in beverages, electronics, and industrial uses. Polyvinylidene Chloride (PVDC) remains important for perishable food packaging, though environmental concerns and recyclability challenges may limit expansion despite ongoing demand.
By End Use:
The food and beverage sector dominates the barrier resin market, widely using EVOH, PVDC, and PEN in packaging for meat, dairy, snacks, and beverages to preserve quality and safety. Growth is fueled by convenience foods, ready-to-eat meals, and e-commerce grocery delivery. The cosmetics industry is emerging, with barrier resins in tubes, bottles, and jars protecting products from oxidation, contamination, and evaporation, supporting premium and sustainable packaging trends. Agriculture shows moderate growth, using PVDC and PA for chemical-resistant packaging and exploring bio-based resins, though its market remains smaller than food and pharmaceuticals.
Regional Insights:
The North American barrier resins market is mature yet steadily growing, supported by advanced food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries. Rising e-commerce and online grocery delivery are increasing demand for durable, lightweight packaging. Strict food safety and sustainability regulations encourage the adoption of innovative barrier resin materials. In the U.S., demand is driven by efforts to reduce food waste, extend shelf life, and meet consumer preferences for convenience foods, though high production costs and recycling challenges remain. In Asia Pacific, growth is fueled by expanding packaged foods, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics markets, along with e-commerce growth, food safety awareness, and investments in sustainable packaging technologies.
Market Competitive Landscape:
The Barrier Resins Market is highly consolidated. Some of the market key players are Arkema, BASF SE, Bostik, DAIKIN, DOW, Dupont, Evonik, H.B. Fuller Company, Huntsman International LLC, Kuraray Co., Ltd., Sika AG, Solvay S.A.
Recent Developments:
In August 2023, Kuraray Co., Ltd. announced an expansion of its ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) production capacity in the U.S. and Europe. By 2024, an additional 5,000 tons per year was added to these operations, with plans to increase capacity by another 5,000 tons per year by 2026. This growth is aimed at addressing rising demand for EVOH resin, especially in Asia, where the food packaging market is experiencing rapid expansion.
In July 2022, Mitsubishi Chemical Group announced plans to expand the production capacity of its SoarnoL ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) resin in the UK by 21,000 tons, with the increase expected to be implemented by July 2025. This expansion is intended to meet the rising demand for eco-friendly products and accommodate the growing global need for SoarnoL resin in the coming years.
