The rigid vinyl films market size was valued at US$ XX billion in 2022 and is estimated to grow to US$ XX billion by 2027 and rise at a CAGR of XX% between (2023-2028)
Flexible and rigid polyvinyl chloride films are available. Rigid vinyl is a form of polyvinyl chloride that is free of plasticizers like phthalates and BPA. Plasticizers are added to films to make them more flexible. On the other hand, plasticizers are banned in several countries due to their harmful impact on individual health. As a result, rigid vinyl films offer a safe and secure solution for end-user applications. When the working temperature is above 60°C, rigid vinyl films are typically employed.
The rigid vinyl films are strong mechanically and electrically, as well as chemically. Furthermore, when compared to other options, rigid vinyl films are less expensive. The rigid vinyl sheets are used for waterproof goods, including automotive interiors, shoes, and clothing. The rigid vinyl films are simple to print and may be used with large-size inkjet printers. The rigid vinyl films are convenient for both manufacturers and customers due to their simplicity of printing. In addition, the different additives used to manufacture rigid vinyl films, such as processing aids, stabilizers, impact modifiers, and pigments, are employed to speed up the manufacturing process. Rigid vinyl films' improved physical characteristics and chemical resistance are predicted to drive up global demand for rigid vinyl films. In addition, the need for worldwide rigid vinyl films will be fueled by rising health awareness among individuals worldwide. The rigid vinyl films' reduced weight is preferred in a variety of end-user applications. In addition, the rigid vinyl films' dimension stability at high temperatures makes them suitable for various applications such as thermoforming, die-cutting, and so on. Because rigid vinyl films are non-biodegradable, they are a stumbling block to the worldwide rigid vinyl films market's expansion. The firm vinyl films, on the other hand, can be reused. Environmentally friendly rigid films are produced by the major players in the global rigid vinyl films industry. The worldwide rigid vinyl films market offers a variety of opportunities, including the development of rigid vinyl films with improved features and cheaper costs.
Moreover, rigid vinyl films comprise various advantages. Most probably, Thermoplastic processes were used to process the material. In addition, with multiple quantities of plasticizer, a wide variety of flexibility is achievable. Furthermore, the processing of plastisol is conceivable. Non-flammable Dimensional consistency, Low cost in comparison, and Weather resistance are excellent; these are some of the advantages of rigid vinyl films, which further led the market growth in the following years.
Rigid Vinyl Films may also have significant restraints. Among these are several solvents that can attack it; the thermal capacity is limited, and the thermal breakdown takes place. Moreover, HCI and Sulphur compounds have left a stain on the surface, and many plastics have a lower density than this. Therefore, these are some of the significant factors responsible for the slowdown of the global rigid vinyl films market.
On May 28, 2021, Tekra Corporation announced that it would enlarge its line of UV Inkjet printable films. It further provides a broad range of rigid vinyl films used in the UV Inkjet printers. Many large-format, low-cost, short-term applications still demand durability, despite the rising speed, size, and quality of modern UV inkjet printers. Furthermore, Tekra sees a significant increase in the use of digital printers for these applications.
Piedmont Plastics, a leading wholesale distributor of plastic sheets, rods, tubes, and film, is pleased to announce its expansion into the Upper Midwest by purchasing Empire Plastics, Inc. in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
Less than 0.05 microns
05-0.50 micron
51 micron-1 micron
More than 1 micron
Based on thickness, more than 1 micron holds a significant global rigid vinyl film market share. The rigid vinyl sheets of more than 1 micron thickness are used for waterproof goods, including automotive interiors, shoes, and clothing. The rigid vinyl films are simple to print and may be used with large-size inkjet printers. The rigid vinyl films are convenient for both manufacturers and customers due to their simplicity of printing. In addition, the different additives used to manufacture rigid vinyl films, such as processing aids, stabilizers, impact modifiers, and pigments, are employed to speed up the manufacturing process.
Opaque
Transparent
The opaque segment is expected to have a significant global rigid vinyl film market share, and on the other hand, the transparent segment tends to have the highest CAGR during 2022 - 2027. Glass can be coated with an optically clear film without sacrificing light transmission or clarity. Unprinted portions are fully transparent, but printed parts might be translucent, opaque, or completely opaque. Designers and artists now have a whole new canvas thanks to the combination of transparency and occlusion, as well as high-resolution color printing.
Pharmaceuticals
Agriculture
Automotive
Packaging
Construction
Others
Rigid vinyl films are utilized by construction, packaging, agriculture, automotive, and others. Among these constructions, the sector attributes the dominant share. Vinyl is suitable for cladding, windows, roofing, fence, decking, wallcoverings, and flooring since it is sturdy and resistant to moisture and abrasion. In addition, unlike some building materials, vinyl does not rust, does not need to be painted frequently, and can be cleaned with straightforward cleaning agents.

Impact of COVID-19 on Rigid Vinyl Films Market:
The coronavirus sickness has expanded to practically every country on the planet since COVID-19 entered in December 2019, demanding the World Health Organization to declare it a public health emergency. The coronavirus illness 2019 (COVID-19) impacts are intact across the globe, and the Rigid Vinyl (PVC) Film market will be considerably impacted in 2020. Flight cancellations travel bans, and quarantines; restaurants closed; all indoor/outdoor events restricted; over forty countries declared states of emergency; massive supply chain slowing; stock market volatility; falling business confidence and growing panic among the public have all been impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. Moreover, rigid vinyl films are utilized in the construction end-user. Construction projects have become more challenging to finish due to the current stage of the pandemic. The COVID-19 epidemic impedes the construction industry's growth, generating disruption and delays, which can be traced to various interrupted supply networks. Several governments have also ordered the closure of particular firms in multiple locations. The shutdown of most residential and non-residential construction projects has been called. Moreover, Rigid Vinyl Films are utilized in different industries. Due to the closedown of various sectors, the market for Rigid Vinyl Films had experienced a significant loss.
