Water-based barrier coatings have gained prominence in the packaging industry due to their ability to facilitate recycling, enhance product protection, and extend the shelf life of food and goods. As packaging companies navigate stringent environmental regulations and strive to design recyclable and eco-friendly solutions, there is an increasing reliance on innovative coatings. Bioplastics have emerged as vital components of sustainable packaging, offering robust protection, adherence to food safety standards, and compatibility with recycling and composting processes. This shift is aligned with the global movement towards reducing plastic usage and adopting low-carbon materials in packaging, which fuels the demand for these advanced solutions. Many enterprises are integrating bio-based and high-performance water-based coatings into their packaging strategies in response to regulatory pressures and evolving consumer preferences. The drive to minimize pollution and transition to safer products is encouraging the adoption of water-based industrial processes worldwide. Consequently, the water-based barrier coatings market is projected to experience steady and significant growth throughout the forecast period.
Oil/grease barrier type segment accounted for second-largest market share in terms of value in 2024.
Water-based barrier coatings with oil and grease resistance represent the second-largest segment of the market, primarily driven by demand in the food packaging sector, particularly for fast food, baked goods, and ready-to-eat meals. These coatings effectively prevent oils and fats from permeating packaging materials, ensuring the integrity and cleanliness of the packages and preserving the products' aesthetic quality. In response to evolving consumer expectations and regulatory requirements for the safety and environmental sustainability of packaging for greasy or oily foods, manufacturers are increasingly adopting water-based coatings that safeguard the contents and comply with stringent standards. Furthermore, the growing demand for environmentally friendly and compostable packaging solutions has further accelerated the adoption of oil and grease-resistant water-based coatings across various markets.

Other substrates segment accounted for second-largest market share in terms of value in 2024.
Water-based barrier coatings used in bioplastics, flexible films, metal foils, and molded fiber products (known as other substrates) played the largest role in sustaining the second-highest group in the market. Because of this, these substrates are picked to make products that are more shock-resistant, less sensitive to heat, or require higher levels of chemical or waterproofness than simple paper or cardboard can deliver. Many pharmaceutical, electronic, and cosmetics companies are now using these alternative materials for their packaging needs. Because people need recyclable materials, the coating industry is creating technologies that can be used on different types of things besides paper. Because companies want their products to be more environmentally friendly and sustainability regulations are getting tougher, water-based barrier coatings are increasing, and firms keep a significant share of the market.
North America was third-largest regional market for water-based barrier coatings in 2024.
In 2024, North America ranked third in the water-based barrier coating market, a position significantly supported by its robust packaging industry and effective government policies. The increasing consumer demand for recyclable packaging is driving a notable shift in food service packaging, retail food products, and e-commerce shipments in the US and Canada, prompting a transition to water-based coatings. This trend is further reinforced by environmental protection initiatives, with numerous states and provinces implementing bans on single-use plastics.

Packaging manufacturers in the region are actively researching and developing green technologies and adopting water-based formulations to align with sustainability objectives set by leading brands and regulatory bodies, including the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Health Canada. While Europe and the Asia Pacific region exhibit higher demand, North America continues to experience consistent growth, fueled by innovative solutions, improved infrastructure, and an increasing customer preference for low-VOC, environmentally safe coatings across various sectors.

Unilever cuts off funding for Ben & Jerry's foundation amid tensions over Gaza, audit

Unilever is cutting off millions in funding for Ben & Jerry's charitable foundation after it refused to provide audit documents, escalating what has become a microcosm for corporate 'woke' wars. Peter ter Kulve, who runs Unilever's ice cream business, told Ben & Jerry's executives in an email that the foundation's trustees 'have continued to resist basic oversight' and are not cooperating with requests from corporate auditors ahead of the ice cream business' spinoff from Unilever. The probe into the foundation began in part because of its giving to pro-Palestinian organizations, Semafor reported earlier this year. 'It represents a marked departure from the norms of charitable organizations, for whom transparency is typically a bedrock operating principle,' ter Kulve wrote in the email, which was seen by Semafor. The Ben & Jerry's foundation distributed more than $5 million of Unilever's money in 2022, to mostly progressive organizations, and has done so ever since the quirky, left-leaning Vermont creamery was acquired by the corporate giant in 2000. Since then, Ben & Jerry's politics have been a headache for its parent, and the tensions between the two have grown more acute as the business community got swept into the culture wars — first pulled to the left in the mid-2010s, then retreating rightward under the second Trump administration. Ter Kulve wrote that management of the soon-to-be standalone ice cream company had met with foundation trustees and 'consistently sought to accommodate concerns' they raised, including switching audit firms and promising to keep certain information about grantees private. 'The Foundation is a powerful force for good and has played a meaningful role in advancing the Ben & Jerry's social mission,' ter Kulve told executives. 'We remain committed to that mission.' Representatives for Unilever and Ben & Jerry's did not respond to a request for comment. A lawyer for the foundation's trustees didn't immediately comment. Unilever decided to spin off its ice cream business last year. The audit of Ben and Jerry's foundation was part of that process. But it has devolved into a turf war between Unilever and the foundation, whose trustees claim their parent company is using the transaction as a pretense to attack its charitable giving. The troubles date back to at least 2021, when Ben & Jerry's said it would stop selling its products in Israeli-occupied Palestinian territories. Unilever sold the regional Ben & Jerry's license in response. Ben & Jerry's independent directors sued Unilever in November, accusing their parent company of silencing the ice cream maker's statements in support of Palestinian refugees. Other court documents allege that Unilever muzzled Ben & Jerry's social media posts that mentioned President Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and Nelson Peltz, the billionaire investor and Unilever director who introduced the president to Musk. Activist Robbie Starbuck told Semafor earlier this year he was planning a lobbying group to pressure corporate America to drop DEI targets, to prevent 'a situation where we have totally parallel economies,' with blue brands and red brands, because it's 'going to hurt our economy.'

Dollar's fate hangs on summer's biggest FX test: Will tariffs reignite inflation?

-- The dollar's fate over the coming months will hinge on whether summer data shows tariffs putting inflation in the driver's seat or simply delivering a one-off boost that clears the way for the Federal Reserve to resume its rate-cut cycle. 'The USD has depreciated significantly in H1, as economic/policy uncertainty and emerging shifts in global FX exposure render it the key recipient of US risk premium,' BofA strategists said in a recent note. Lately, Fed policy has taken center stage, with investors laser-focused on whether tariff-induced inflation will materialize. 'Thus far, this inflation uncertainty has kept the Fed from resuming their cutting cycle, but the timing of if/when the data will more definitively reflect these risks is drawing near,' they added. Pressure on the Fed to cut has been mounting from the Administration, which has called for lower rates to help curb federal interest expenses—raising questions about central bank independence. 'This has added to the USD's woes, even as markets elsewhere (and inflation expectations) have taken it in stride for now,' according to the analysts. Despite some dovish signals from Fed Governors Waller and Bowman, and Powell's openness to cuts if tariff-driven inflation fails to materialize, BofA strategists remain cautious. 'Chair Powell… subtly opened the door to a possible dovish shift sooner down the line with comments suggesting that should the expected tariff-induced inflation not show up in the data over the summer, the Fed would likely be able to resume cuts earlier than he originally anticipated.' Markets are currently pricing in about 28 basis points of cuts by September, but BofA doubts this will be enough to reverse the dollar's downtrend. 'Any unwinding of this pricing is likely insufficient to turn the USD tide… As the overhang of eventual cuts still looms,' BofA adds, pointing out that the dollar's slide continued in Q2 even as expectations for near-term cuts faded. The strategists also highlight that the dollar's latest leg lower has come even as US equities have started to outperform global peers—a decoupling that underscores the risk premium now embedded in the greenback. For now, inflation expectations remain anchored, but BofA warns that 'potential upside risks [are] on the horizon, partly due to possible further Fed dovishness.' The coming months will be critical for determining whether the Fed can resume its cutting cycle or if sticky inflation will keep the dollar's slide in check.

S&P 500 futures and dollar dip as Trump revives tariff tension

Equity-index futures fell and the dollar dipped after President Trump said his administration may start sending out letters imposing unilateral tariffs on trading partners as early as Friday. Ahead of his July 9 deadline for trade negotiations, the U.S. President told reporters on Thursday: 'We're probably going to be sending some letters out, starting probably tomorrow, maybe 10 a day to various countries saying what they're going to pay to do business with the U.S.' Now that the megabill has passed, expect a ton of short-term debt to be sold to finance the government's deficit 'I'm single': At 70, I have $500,000 in stocks and $220,000 in savings. How do I invest my $130,000 windfall? 'Today is my 61st birthday': I have my ex-spouse's Social Security benefits. Should I retire at 65 and travel? 'I do all the yard work, cooking and cleaning': I live with my daughter and her lazy boyfriend. She wants me to buy her house. Do I say yes? My wife and I are in our late 60s. Do I sell stocks to pay our $30,000 credit-card debt — or do it gradually over 3 years? U.S. stocks closed at record highs following a holiday-shortened session on Thursday. The S&P 500 SPX has surged 26% from its April low as investors welcomed Trump's retreat from his original draconian tariff strategy announced on April 2 that pushed import levies to 131-year highs. However, the President's latest comments suggest few trade deals are likely to be struck before the April 9 deadline and now markets face increased tariff uncertainty once again. Jim Reid, strategist at Deutsche Bank, noted that Trump later also said that the imposed tariffs, which may come into effect on August 1, could range in value from 10% to maybe 60 or 70%. 'So definitely one to keep an eye on, as the difference in that range would have significant economic implications for the various countries,' said Reid. U.S. equity and bond markets are closed for the Independence Day break, but stock-index futures are active, and the E-mini S&P 500 contract ES00 was 0.6% lower in early Friday action, with traders shrugging off news that the Republican's big tax-cutting bill had been passed. The U.S. dollar fell, down 0.4% versus the Japanese yen USDJPY, and losing 0.2% against the euro EURUSD. Global stock markets were mostly on the back foot, despite Wall Street's overnight record, with those countries arguably more vulnerable to a higher unilateral Trump tariff under most pressure. South Korea's KOSPI Composite Index KR:180721 fell 2%, while Germany's DAX DX:DAX was down 0.7% and the CAC 40 FR:PX1 in France lost 0.9% by mid afternoon in Europe. '[R]isk sentiment is draining from markets,' said Kathleen Brooks, research director at XTB. 'President Trump seems to have called time on trade negotiations before next Wednesday's deadline…This suggests that at this late stage he is willing to play hardball rather than negotiate,' she added. Concerns that higher tariffs across a broad range of countries would stymie trade and weaken the global economy saw copper futures HG00 fall 1.6% and oil futures CL.1 drop 1.3%. 'Optimism is evaporating at the end of the week, as the U.S. tariff deadline looms and the signs are that many countries will face higher duties than expected,' said Susannah Streeter, head of money and markets at Hargreaves Lansdown. The mildly risk-off tone caused bitcoin BTCUSD to slip 0.8% but saw gold GC00 give up early gains to trade little changed at around $3,342 an ounce. My wife and I have $7,000 a month in pensions and Social Security, plus $140,000 cash. Can we afford to retire? 'Finance makes me break out in hives': I inherited $240K from my parents. Do I pay off my $258K mortgage and give up my job? The Dow and Russell 2000 are joining the stock market's party. Is it a game changer for the bulls? My job is offering me a payout. Should I take a $61,000 lump sum — or $355 a month for life?
