Anti-Static Films Market Report 2026

The anti-static films market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $0.67 billion in 2025 to $0.73 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth of electronics manufacturing activities, rising sensitivity of electronic components, expansion of semiconductor packaging, increased demand for safe material handling, availability of polyethylene-based films.

The anti-static films market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.02 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for advanced electronic packaging, rising adoption of automation in electronics assembly, expansion of pharmaceutical supply chains, growing focus on recyclable packaging materials, increasing use of specialty films. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing demand for esd-safe packaging materials, rising adoption of anti-static films in electronics manufacturing, growing use in pharmaceutical packaging, expansion of multi-layer protective films, enhanced focus on material durability and transparency.

The increasing penetration of the e-commerce industry is expected to drive the growth of the anti-static films market during the forecast period. The growth of e-commerce is primarily fueled by the widespread use of smartphones, which makes online shopping more convenient and accessible. E-commerce involves the buying and selling of goods and services over electronic networks. Anti-static plastic films, available in various forms such as bubble covers, films, and foams, are commonly used by retailers to package both electronic and non-electrical products. For example, in August 2023, the United States Census Bureau reported that e-commerce sales in the second quarter of 2023 increased by 7.5% compared to the same period in 2022, while overall retail sales rose by 0.6%, with 15.4% of all sales in Q2 2023 conducted through online stores. Therefore, the growing penetration of e-commerce is driving the anti-static films market.

The expanding electronics industry is also expected to propel the growth of the anti-static films market. The electronics industry encompasses the design, development, manufacturing, and sale of electronic devices and components. Anti-static films are widely used in this sector to protect sensitive electronic components from electrostatic discharge (ESD) and damage. They serve as protective packaging materials, covers, and liners for electronic products. For instance, in December 2024, the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA), a Japan-based trade organization, reported that global electronics and IT industry production grew by 9% year-on-year in 2024 and is projected to grow by 8% in 2025, reaching $3.99 trillion compared to $3.7 trillion in 2024. Consequently, the growth of the electronics industry is driving the anti-static films market.

Prominent players within the anti-static films market are introducing novel products such as the aerospace conductive coating (CM0485115) to enhance their market standing and profitability. This innovative solution provides high conductivity to non-conductive substrates, creating an anti-static conductive film. In September 2023, Sherwin-Williams Company, a renowned US-based manufacturer of paints and coatings, introduced the aerospace conductive coating (CM0485115). Best application results recommend using the conductive coating in a single, continuous closed film or via a cross-coat method. This solution is compatible with all non-electrostatic spray equipment and can be applied to pre-primed aluminum and composite substrates to achieve heightened conductivity.
