Market Overview:

The global plastic packaging market is expected to exhibit a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.1% during 2023-2028. The growing demand for ready-to-eat (RTE) food products, rising adoption of eco-friendly and sustainable packaging solutions, and increasing demand in the food and beverage (F&B) sector to decrease food wastage represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Plastic packaging is designed to protect goods from deterioration. It is manufactured through various materials, such as polyethylene (PE), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polystyrene (PS), expanded polystyrene (EPS), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It is widely available in rigid and flexible packaging, such as bottles, jars, trays, containers, jugs, pots, wraps, pouches, and cups, and in different sizes, shapes, and colors. It is cost-effective and lightweight and offers durability, safety, and flexibility while maintaining hygiene. It is also recyclable, versatile, sustainable, reduces environmental pollution, and has lower energy requirements during the production process. Besides this, it assists in protecting, preserving, storing, and transporting products in a convenient and efficient manner. As a result, plastic packaging is employed in the healthcare, food and beverage (F&B), pharmaceutical, and cosmetics and personal care industries around the world.

Plastic Packaging Market Trends:

At present, the increasing utilization of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) in the cosmetic industry due to its high chemical resistance and tensile strength represents one of the key factors contributing to the growth of the market. Additionally, the growing demand for plastic packaging in the food and beverage (F&B) industry, as it prevents food wastage, reduces contamination, and increases the shelf life of a product, is offering a positive market outlook. Apart from this, the rising adoption of ready-to-eat (RTE) food products due to busy lifestyles and hectic working schedules of individuals across the globe is propelling the growth of the market. In addition to this, there is a rise in the demand for convenient, eco-friendly, and sustainable packaging solutions among the masses across the globe. This, coupled with the increasing adoption of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic bottles for the packaging of water, juice, oil, medicines, and soft drinks, is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. Besides this, the introduction of innovative packaging solutions, such as active packaging, modified atmosphere packaging, edible packaging, and bioplastic packaging, is positively influencing the market. Moreover, the increasing demand for plastic packaging due to the burgeoning e-commerce industry and expanding export activities around the world is strengthening the growth of the market. Furthermore, the rising utilization of plastic packaging on account of its cost- effectiveness and increased shelf life compared to other forms of packaging is supporting the growth of the market.
