Demand drivers for the diaper market include an increase in population, which results in greater demand for comfortable and hygienic diapers. Moreover, the segment has grown with the improvement in per-capita disposable income and an increase in the number of working mothers. Due to increasing awareness of keeping newborns hygienic and technical development in textiles used within diapers, such as breathable and absorbent, manufacturers are designing bio-based products. Breathability has been defined as a fabric allowing airflow into and out of the weave or structure of the fabric. A breathable newborn diaper is a must for the comfort and healthy skin of the baby. It keeps a baby's skin smooth and healthy by reducing the risk of diaper rash. The breathability of diapers influences the incidence of diaper dermatitis. Hence, babies with diapers having breathability have a 38% to 50% less chance of developing dermatitis.

Increasing Interest in Biodegradable Films: A significant trend in the breathable film market is the increasing demand for environ-friendly, biodegradable films. Sustainability is of increasing concern to manufacturers and customers alike as awareness regarding environmental issues and plastic waste increases. This trend has stimulated the formulation and production of biodegradable breathable films from raw materials such as plant-based polymers and compostable materials. These films reduce the environmental impact of traditional petroleum-based plastics while offering the same functional benefits as petroleum-based plastics in terms of breathability and moisture management. Moving to biodegradable films further inspires creativity and investment into environmentally friendly alternatives, since the adoption of biodegradable films is among mainstream regulatory demands and global sustainability goals. This is a trend indicative of the broader industrial movement toward 'greener' products that are changing customer trends and the market landscape.

Increasing applications for packaging materials in F&B, personal care, and pharmaceutical products are expected to drive the size of the Asia-Pacific market to the leading position in the regional market. Regional market growth can be attributed to an increasing demand for sanitary infant care products in China and India, which in turn can be linked to changes in lifestyle, an increase in the number of working moms, and an increase in per-capita disposable income. Packaging sector is the sixth largest industry in India. IIP said, "India's packaging consumption surged by 200% in the last decade from 4.3 kgs to 8.6 kgs per person per annum as of FY-20, while IIP added that rising consumer awareness, growing income levels, and surge in consumption of processed food will be driving the India packaging sector. A high volume of packaging spending in food processing, pharmaceutical, protective apparel, and personal care end-use industries is expected to drive the growth of the packaging market in the region.
