Mexico Paper Packaging Products Market Trends:

Growth of the E-commerce and Retail Sector

The rapid growth of Mexico's organized retail and e-commerce sectors is a key factor driving the market for paper packaging products in the country. Mexico's e-commerce retail sales have experienced significant growth in recent years, driven by increasing internet penetration, rising mobile phone usage, and improved payment gateways. This digital transformation has significantly altered packaging needs, as products sold online must be shipped in safe, frequently branded, and sustainable packaging: functions that paper-based materials are well-suited to perform. Paper packaging offers several benefits in this regard: it is lightweight, affordable, easily branded, and recyclable, which resonates with companies and consumers who prioritize sustainability. Corrugated boxes, kraft paper wraps, and paperboard envelopes are among the most popular paper packaging forms used in e-commerce. In addition, physical stores in the FMCG, fashion, electronics, and food categories are also increasingly using paper substitutes for plastic as a result of changing consumer behavior and environmental legislation.

Government Regulations and Ban on Single-Use Plastics

Another factor driving the growth of Mexico's paper packaging market is the growing regulatory pressure against single-use plastics at both state and federal levels. Various Mexican states, including Mexico City, Oaxaca, and Querétaro, have imposed bans or restrictions on single-use plastic bags, straws, containers, and other disposable items. The Mexico City prohibition, in place since January 2021, was particularly effective, banning the sale of a wide range of plastic products and compelling companies to transition to biodegradable or recyclable substitutes—most commonly paper-based packaging solutions. This policy-led change has triggered demand across a broad range of industries, including food and beverage, personal care, retail, and manufacturing. Paper packaging has become the natural alternative with its minimum environmental footprint, recyclability, and consumer favor. Regulatory requirements have compelled both large corporations and small enterprises to reassess their packaging value chains, driving innovation in paper-based alternatives, such as molded fiber boxes, paper straws, and coated paper wraps.
