  • A quick guide to the right commercial cling film width and thickness for restaurant kitchens, delis and supermarkets — from 30cm prep stations to 45cm gastronorm pans.
  • When delis, supermarkets and restaurant kitchens choose **cling film**, the first decision they face is between **PE vs PVC cling film. Both look transparent on the roll, but they differ sharply in safety, performance, heat resistance and total cost. In this guide we compare PE and PVC food wrap on the factors that actually matter to commercial buyers, so you can specify the right film for your operation.
  • Agricultural mulch films play a pivotal role in safeguarding global food security, and a growing body of scientific evidence confirms that biodegradable alternatives can match the performance of conventional polyethylene mulch while offering significant environmental benefits. A global meta-analysis published in the Journal of Cleaner Production, synthesizing 4,331 experimental datasets from 724 publications, provides the most comprehensive assessment to date of the sustainability tradeoffs between polyethylene mulch (PM) and soil-biodegradable mulch (BDM).
  • The global industrial films market is experiencing robust growth, with industry analysts projecting the sector to expand significantly through 2035. Europe currently accounts for approximately 28% of the total market share, valued at USD 15.39 billion in 2026. However, it is Asia-Pacific that emerges as the fastest-growing region, with a projected compound annual growth rate of 13.8% from 2026 to 2035, driven by expanding industrial manufacturing and electronics production.
  • A major transition is underway in the global food packaging sector. Retailers and consumers are moving away from traditional PVC cling films due to mounting health concerns regarding plasticizers such as DEHP. The market is demanding a safer alternative: non-toxic polyethylene (PE) cling film. China's cling film manufacturers are at the forefront of this shift, leveraging advanced production technology to deliver FDA-compliant, food-safe products that rival PVC in clarity and cling performance.
