The global thermoplastic polyurethane films market size was estimated at USD 443.69 million in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 716.82 million by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 6.3% from 2026 to 2033. Thermoplastic polyurethane film is a versatile substrate that is custom-made for performance applications.
Its adaptability is partly due to the wide range of base chemical classes. It can be extruded with polyester, polyether, or polycaprolactone. The global demand for TPU films has increased over the last two years, driven by a period of stability in the automotive industry. Key automotive applications of TPU films include exterior applications such as paint protection, scratch protection, anti-stone chipping, cowl protection, and rear bumper protection.
The TPU film market is gaining momentum globally due to its unique combination of properties, including flexibility, durability, abrasion resistance, and chemical stability. These films are widely used across various industries, including automotive, medical, construction, textiles, and electronics. Their ability to be customized for specific performance requirements, including UV resistance, antimicrobial properties, and breathability, makes them a preferred choice over traditional polymers. The market is segmented by chemical class (polyether, polyester, polycaprolactone), each offering distinct advantages for different applications.
The leisure sports industry in North America and Europe has reached a state of maturity. However, strong economic development in the Asia-Pacific region has led to an increase in disposable income. This is expected to lead to growth in the leisure sports industry in the region, which in turn is anticipated to drive demand for TPU films.
