Material Type - Segment Analysis
Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) held the largest share in the Cling Films market in 2019. Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) cling film contributes greatly to food health, as it is one of the most commonly used food storage materials. The key benefit of using Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) cling film is that it forms a bond by sticking to itself or the container without the use of glue, which is cost-effective. By inhibiting the growth of microorganisms it protects meat and dairy products. Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) cling films also has high and low temperature resistance which allows the product to be fresh for longer periods of time. PVC displays lower energy utilization which in the end cuts down consumption of natural resources by a considerable margin. Besides, PVC used in the automotive industry creates the vehicles lighter associated to traditional materials such as metal which also lower down the consumption of energy. In addition to that the cables for charging electric vehicle is coated by PVC and is suitable for usage in warmer environment. These cables delivers a high level of flexibility and performance. Furthermore, advancement in PVC cling films will further augment the market. The new PVC stretch film uses a plasticizer which is based primarily on plant source materials.

Form – Segment Analysis
Cast Cling Film held the largest share in the Cling Films market in 2019. Cast film extrusion equipment and add value by consistently reducing scrap and improving processing rates. Cling films are thin PVC films, which stay flexible at very low temperature and offer strong tear resistance with the help of plasticizers. They offer high level of tear resistance and clarity. Additionally cast cling film cost much less than other cling films. Cast cling films can save more than 15% to 20% thereby reducing the per unit packing cost and get more output per application. The cast film process is the most efficient method of producing stretch wrap film of top quality in the high output range. Innovative information technologies and the creation of new core components for cast cling film lines like high-speed extruders and new types of winders allow our customers to position themselves in the highly competitive cling film market with success. 

End Use – Segment Analysis
