In 2025, the average price of TPU Type Paint Protection Film was approximately USD 80 per square meter, and the industry's average gross margin was around 25%.

The growth of the TPU Type Paint Protection Film market is mainly driven by the expansion of vehicle ownership, upgrading consumption in mid- to high-end passenger cars, rising penetration of new energy vehicles, stronger consumer awareness of paint protection and the standardization of automotive aftermarket detailing services. New energy vehicles and premium fuel vehicles often use more complex exterior coatings, metallic paint, pearlescent paint, matte paint and large body panels, making repainting and repair costs relatively high and encouraging consumers to use protective films to reduce long-term maintenance costs. At the same time, the continuous improvement of self-healing, anti-yellowing, high-transparency, hydrophobic, anti-fouling and matte color-change properties is expanding TPU PPF from basic scratch protection to exterior upgrading, resale value protection and premium vehicle personalization.
