Slip Additives Market size was over USD 304.38 million in 2024 and is anticipated to cross USD 539.42 million by 2037, growing at more than 4.5% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of slip additives is estimated at USD 316.02 million.
The growth of the market can be attributed to the ongoing advancement in packaging industry backed by the growing food & beverage packaging industry. Slip additives are used to manufacture thin films and sheets in order to prevent friction between the films, and between the film and the machines, and get the desired properties in packaging material. Slip additives enhance the strength and durability of the films, and reduce handling problems. These also reduce a film’s resistance to sliding over itself or over the parts of converting equipment. Such features are estimated to boost the demand for slip additives amongst the manufacturers of packaging solutions.
