Strategic implications & short guidance
Barrier resin suppliers and converters should prioritize R&D that enables recyclable, mono-material barrier structures and low-carbon production routes while simultaneously offering thin, high-performance barrier layers for premium markets (pharma, retort, beverage). Commercial strategies that pair technical support and co-development with converters will accelerate adoption; at the same time, lower-cost regional players will continue to dominate price-sensitive segments, so large producers must balance premium innovation with cost-competitive offerings for emerging markets.
