Paper Bags Market

The global paper bags market grew at a CAGR of around 6% during 2014-2019. A paper bag is a flexible packaging product that is used by consumers to store and carry goods conveniently. It is usually manufactured using recycled, Kraft and parchment paper and is processed through several mechanical and chemical processes to achieve a certain weight and color. Multiwall paper sacks, flat paper and handled bags are some of the common types of paper bags available in the market. In comparison to the plastic bags, these bags are recyclable, durable, lightweight and highly customizable according to the specific requirement of the consumers. Owing to the growing environmental consciousness, these bags are being extensively utilized across various industries, including retail and food service.

The growing retail industry, along with increasing consumer preference for biodegradable and eco-friendly packaging products, is one of the key factors driving the growth of the market. The growing demand for consumer goods and the establishment of shopping malls, complexes and retail outlets in rural and urban areas is increasing the adoption of paper bags across the globe. Furthermore, rising inclination toward packaged and processed food products is also providing a boost to the market growth. Paper bags for packing edible products are coated with food-grade liners, which keeps the contents fresh over an extended period. Additionally, various product innovations aimed to improve the design and manufacturing processes are also contributing to the market growth. Manufacturers are developing products with increased efficiency, reliability and convenience. Other factors, including growth in the construction industry, which utilizes paper bags for packaging cement, rapid urbanization and favorable government policies, are projected to drive the market further. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the global paper bags market to exhibit moderate growth during the next five years.
