The market for protein films is anticipated to reach US$ 1.2 billion in 2022. By 2032, the market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% and reach US$ 2.2 billion.
In recent years, the adoption of edible packaging materials over synthetic films is expected to have increased the market share of protein films. During the forecast period, this packaging causes a rise in demand for protein films.
Additionally, the usage of protein films can be extended to the packaging of food items, particularly products, in discrete little pieces. It is also utilized for other packaged goods such as beans, almonds, and cashew nuts, which are expected to drive market trends for protein films.

Protein films have received considerable attention in recent years because of their advantages, including their use as edible packaging materials, over synthetic films. In addition, protein films can also be used for the individual packaging of small portions of food, particularly products that are not currently individually packaged for practical reasons, such as beans, nuts, and cashew nuts.
The mechanical properties of protein films are also better than those of polysaccharide and fat-based films because proteins have a unique structure that confers a wider range of functional properties, especially a high intermolecular binding potential. Protein films and coatings are also biodegradable and compostable. As they degrade, they provide a source of nitrogen, which contributes a fertilizer benefit not available with other non-protein-based films and coatings.
Market Dynamics:
To break the protein films a tensile strength is needed which is the pulling force per film cross-sectional area. The elongation in the protein films is due to the break for the degree at which the film can be stretched before breaking. The factor impacting the growth of protein film market is Young’s modulus or elastic modulus which provides information about the resistance of a film during deformation.
The pH and heating temperature of film solutions had the greatest effect on the physic-chemical and permeability properties of edible films from mung bean protein. The films produced at pH around 9.50 and heating temperature of 75C for 20 min of heating time exhibited high TS and ε, while WVP FS and PS was lowest. Film color was darker and more yellowish with increase in the pH and heating temperature of film-solution.
Protein films can be replacements for synthetic gas barriers, but their mechanical properties still need improvement. Nanotechnology is a viable route to improve both tensile and barrier properties. Nanoparticles and variations at the nanometer scale affect electronic and atomic interactions without changing the chemistry. The water vapor permeability of wheat gluten was improved by including montmorillonite clay nanoparticles, while tensile strength and elastic modulus were also increased.
