The growth of the barrier film market is augmented by the huge demand for high-performance films, owing to the rising barrier requirements in multiple end-user industries. Improvements, particularly in processing technologies, are expected to support the increasing use of barrier films for suitable applications and low-cost production. Packaging applications for food are expected to account for a major share of the barrier film market. This can be attributed to the rising trend of down-gauging, which has supported the shift from rigid to flexible packaging. Strong incentives from retailers, producers, and consumers to increase product shelf life and reduce wastage of packaging material, along with the rising preference for fresh foods, such as meat, fruits, vegetables, and seafood, have increased the demand for barrier films. Flexible packaging formats, such as retort pouches, bags, and trays with wraps, are helping consumers with busy lifestyles and single-households and meeting their need for convenient packaging. The above-stated trends for food packaging are driven by the increasing dominance of large retailers in developed and developing economies where processed and packaged food, with shelf life extension and cost control, is preferred.

FTTx, also known as fiber to the x, is used for high speed data communications. The x here is any end-use location may that be home, enterprise, building, desktop, router, office, and many more. The fiber cables are prone to damage. They are passed through plastic pipes of certain qualities to prevent the direct damage to the cable such as corrosion, cuts, or breakage. Furthermore, the pipes offer flexibility or rigidness as desired. FTTx pipes are made from thermoplastic polymers as high or medium density polyethylene and polyvinyl chloride. The fiber cables are laid through ducts, pathways, and many more. In addition, these ducts and pathways used offer protection from damage, ensure safety, and are temperature & chemical resistant.
