Analyst Perspective 

The global mulch film market is expected to register a CAGR of 6.3%. The increasing demand for crops and expansion of greenhouse projects are expected to remain a key drivers for market growth. Technological advancements improve the performance and sustainability of the mulch films market, contributing to the growth of the mulch films market. However, the high initial cost is a significant challenge for the growth of the mulch film market. The cost of biodegradable mulch films is higher than plastic films. The lack of availability of biodegradable mulch films is also a significant challenge for the mulch film market.

Market Overview

Mulch film is a thin material layer placed on the soil surface to conserve moisture and regulate soil temperature. Mulch films are available in various plastic, paper, and bio-based options. Due to the large proportion of mulch films used in fruits and vegetables and all the environmental problems related to their disposal, biodegradable mulch films seem to be the best solution for replacing conventional polyethylene mulches. Using mulch films helps decrease the cost of chemical weed killers and increase the quality of crops. The market for mulch films is expected to grow due to technological advancements and sustainability concerns.

Market Drivers

  • Mulch films retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and reduce erosion, contributing to higher crop yields, which is more beneficial in areas with changing climates and limited water sources.
  • Mulch films can help to improve the quality of fruits and vegetables by providing a cleaner growing environment and protecting them from pests and diseases.
  • The use of mulch films is growing in greenhouses, as they can help to create a controlled environment for optimal plant growth.
  • New technologies are developed to improve the performance and sustainability of mulch films.
  • Regulatory bodies are implementing regulations to restrict the use of traditional plastic mulch films due to their environmental impact. This is driving the market for biodegradable alternatives.
  • These factors are likely to drive the growth of the mulch film market.
