Synthetic paper is very similar to regular or normal paper that is available anywhere, apart from the difference that it is made of synthetic resin, which is obtained from petroleum as the main content. Most of them look exactly the same as regular paper and seem to be extracted from wood pulp; however, that’s not the case. These papers are molded in such a way that it looks similar to plastic and is very durable in nature.
These synthetic resin papers are categorized into two kinds such as film and fiber synthetic paper. However, among the two, film synthetic paper is more widely used. Moreover, it imparts certain properties such as tear resistance and water and grease resistance. These papers also include printable surfaces and can provide superior-quality printing.
The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative effect on the global synthetic paper market and its opportunities. The disturbance in the value chain across the world due to the lockdown has obstructed large-scale manufacturing. Travel restrictions and limited import/export activities also led to reduced demand for the industry. Several industries were adversely affected by the pandemic, directly influencing industry.
