Global Cast Film Market Research Report, Competitive, Technology and Forecast Analysis 2025-2032
Cast film is a thin plastic film produced by extruding molten polymer through a flat die onto a chilled, polished roll, where it quickly cools and solidifies. This process creates film with excellent clarity, uniform thickness, and good dimensional stability. The two main types of cast film are CPP (cast polypropylene) and CPE (cast polyethylene), each offering distinct performance advantages for different applications. Cast films are typically softer and more transparent than blown films, making them ideal for food packaging, stretch wrap, lamination, and hygiene products. Because the film is cooled rapidly, it can be manufactured at high speeds and with multiple layers, allowing tailored barrier, sealing, or mechanical properties.
