A vinyl image that is directly put over the factory-applied paint of the car is known as an automobile wrap film. These films are primarily employed for two purposes: first, to protect the original paint from corrosion and dust, and second, to alter or enhance a vehicle's look. When an automobile film wrap is applied, the look of the car may be quickly changed. If required, the wrap can be removed to restore the vehicle to its original appearance.
Buses, lorries, and passenger automobiles may be customized and advertised with the use of automotive wrap films. The booming international sign and graphics business is expected to be the driving force behind the use of automobile wrap films due to the rising need for mobile advertising. The market for automotive films is expanding as a result of the reduced price of automotive wrap films compared to vehicle paints. The rising population and rising disposable income are anticipated to have a beneficial effect on the market's revenue growth throughout the course of the forecast period.
COVID-19 Impact: WFH and Delivery Issues Led to Market’s Decline
The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with automotive wrap films experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.
The severe impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on industrial industries worldwide has an influence on the market's growth in 2020. Work-from-home policies, order cancellations, and delivery issues all increased in the plastics business along with the proliferation of COVID-19. It is anticipated that in the near future, demand for vehicle wrap films would increase as a result of the lifting of lockdowns and restarting of operations while adhering to the COVID-19 rules established by various governments across the world.

DRIVING FACTORS
"Development in Industrial Sector to Boost the Market"
Developing industrial sectors in emerging nations and rising demand from the logistics and construction industries as a result of an increase in global building activity are some of the key reasons fueling the expansion of the trucks segment of the automotive wrap film market. These characteristics encourage the use of heavy-duty trucks for transportation, which results in the use of automobile wrap films as ads on those vehicles.
"Rising Disposable Income to Favor the Market Demand"
Over the projected period, it is anticipated that the expanding global population and the rising disposable income would have a favorable influence on demand. Due to the growing customer desire for personalized graphics to provide a unique touch to their cars, the passenger vehicles category held the greatest market share in 2021. It is expected that this would lead to an increase in the demand for car wrap films.
RESTRAINING FACTORS
"Difficulty in Public Use and Government Restrictions to Hamper the Market"
The installation of the automobile wrap films in the outside surface enables the formation of a layer of dirt between the wrap and the surface of the car. This makes it difficult for the public to use the wrap, which is problematic for the vehicle industry. Another important aspect that would limit the market's growth is experienced complications during the installation of these wrap films.
The Indian government mandates that before being applied to autos, automotive color or texture wraps that alter the color of original vehicles must be registered with the country's regional transport office. Section 52 of the Central Motor Vehicle Rules is where the law is registered. As a result, there are a lot of restrictions that must be followed in India for post-sale color wrapping of automobiles, which limits the market's expansion there.
