Germany Pharmaceutical Packaging Market Trends:

Growing Pharmaceutical Industry

The expansion of the pharmaceutical sector in Germany boosts demand for diverse and reliable packaging solutions to support drug production and distribution. According to the industry report, in 2022, pharmaceutical industry sales in Germany increased by 5.4%, reaching EUR 56.5 billion (ex-manufacturer prices). More than 600 pharmaceutical companies are in Germany. SMEs constitute the backbone of the economic sector, with more than 90% of drug manufacturers having less than 500 employees. Overall, the German pharmaceutical industry has a workforce of around 140,000 people. Oncology and immunology showed double-digit growth in 2022 and remain the highest-revenue segment, with a market share of 29% and 28%, respectively. Germany is one of the world’s top pharmaceutical production locations. The German pharmaceutical sector shows the highest research intensity among all major German industries – about 11.1% of revenues were reinvested in internal R&D projects in 2020 and the total research intensity reached 16.5%.

Stringent Regulatory Requirements

Strict regulations regarding drug safety and packaging standards necessitate advanced packaging solutions to ensure compliance and protect consumers. For instance, the new Packaging Act (VerpackG) came into force on 03 July 2021, it has been adapted to the current EU Directive 94/62/EC and applies only in the Federal Republic of Germany. The Packaging Act replaces the existing Packaging Ordinance (VerpackV). The Packaging Act aims to increase recycling rates. The purpose of the current Packaging Act is to avoid or reduce the impact of packaging waste on the environment. To achieve this goal, the law is intended to regulate the behavior of obligated parties in such a way that packaging waste is avoided as a matter of priority and, in addition, is prepared for reuse or recycled. In simple terms, anyone in Germany who produces, imports, or additionally packages goods in packaging for private end customers, such as online retailers, falls under the Packaging Act and must participate in a nationwide take-back system, a dual system (the nationwide collection of the packaging waste collected in this way is handled by the dual systems).
