The global Low‑Density Polyethylene (LDPE) film market continues to show resilient production growth and dynamic price trends driven by macroeconomic and raw material shifts. LDPE film is a versatile polymer film used in packaging, agriculture, consumer goods, and industrial protective applications. Production capacity remains widespread, with major producers in Asia‑Pacific, North America, and Europe leveraging integrated petrochemical operations to optimize throughput. LDPE film prices have exhibited notable volatility in recent years due to fluctuating petrochemical feedstock costs, logistics disruptions, and regional demand shifts. Historically, average price levels ranged widely by region—North America often commanding USD 1,300‑1,550/tonne while Asian producers offered competitive rates around USD 1,100‑1,350/tonne. Premium pricing for bio‑based or recycled LDPE films is also emerging, with products in eco‑certified segments commanding 10‑15% price premiums relative to conventional films.
