The global anti-fog lidding film market size was US$ 675.8 million in 2021. The global anti-fog lidding film market size is estimated to reach US$ 1211.4 million by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2030.
Anti-fog film is a high-barrier layer that controls fogging when food is placed in trays and containers. These films give lower food wastage and longer shelf life. Moreover, they are heat resistant. They maintain moisture build-up and spoilage and prevent food contamination. It is commonly formed of different Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), Polyethylene, polypropylene and polyamide, polymers, and others. Moreover, these films are broadly utilized in the packaging of different products such as frozen foods, dairy products, seafood, meat poultry, confectionery, ready-to-eat products, and bakeries.

Factors Influencing Market Growth
