The global heat transfer films market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.6% over the forecast period 2020 to 2027 and to reach around US$ 3,609.6 Mn by 2027.

The heat transfer film is a dry printing process where the ink pigment & metalized layer is transferred from film to the product with the heat transfer machine that used to apply heat & pressure to transfer. These are mostly used in the textile industry to imprint designs or logos on various fabrics such as cotton, polyester, and cotton-poly blend.

Market Dynamics

The increasing demand for heat transfer films in various industrial applications is primarily driving the market growth. The increasing demand for finished products with several resistance properties including color, scrub, scratch, high temperature, and solvent resistance along with the less cost is supporting the heat transfer film market. Along with these, efficiency and effectiveness associated with the heat transfer films are further supporting the market value. Additionally, the rapidly growing packaging industry along with the increasing efforts to reduce the content of non-biodegradable materials in packaging is projected to create the demand over the forecast period. Moreover, food and beverages and the personal care industry are expected to create potential opportunities for heat transfer films during the forecast period from 2020 to 2027.

On the other hand, fluctuating coat of raw material and restrictions on plastic material in some developed and developing economies is projected to limit the growth to an extent over the estimated period.
