Market Share of Italy Plastic Packaging Films Industry
The Italian plastic packaging films market is fragmented, with several global and regional players, such as Irplast SpA, Berry Global Inc., Klöckner Pentaplast, and SÜDPACK Holding GmbH, vying for attention in a contested market space characterized by low product differentiation, growing product penetration, and high competition.
- January 2024: Berry Global unveiled an enhanced iteration of its Omni Xtra polyethylene cling film, positioning it as a certified recyclable substitute for conventional PVC options. Initially tailored for fruits, vegetables, meats, poultry, and deli items, the new Omni Xtra+ film boasts heightened impact resistance, enhanced elasticity, and a more consistent stretching profile.
- July 2023: Dow and Klöckner Pentaplast jointly introduced KP Flexivac, a multi-layer vacuum film. This innovative product has achieved a notable milestone. It has been certified as 100% recyclable PE by the recycling center CyclosHTP and the recycling alliance Interseroh. KP Flexivac is designed explicitly to package bone-in fresh meat and poultry cuts. Its hermetical seal and robust film ensure optimal food protection and safety, maintaining quality across the entire supply chain.
