Technavio research analysts has listed the growing demand for paper-based packaging in the food industry as one of the emerging trends in the market:
Growing demand for paper-based packaging in the food industry
As thick, paper-based material is used for wrapping products, paper and paper-based packaging is gaining popularity in the food industry. Paper packaging can be easily cut and shaped, besides being lightweight. For molded fiber packaging, the food packaging market is the largest end-user segment. From a global perspective, in developed regions like North America, the food packaging market is expected to reach a plateau in terms of technology. In addition, molded fiber packaging is significantly driven by the robust adoption of sustainable and biodegradable packaging solutions and is cost-effective, requiring less inventory and warehousing costs. The demand for transfer molded pulp is predicted to remain high during the forecast period.
"The leading players in the market are innovating and exploring other end-user segments as molded fiber packaging is extensively used in egg packaging. The product efficiency is expected to increase further due to the technological advances, as well as the introduction of other fibers such as palm, sugarcane, and bamboo," says a senior analyst at Technavio for research on packaging
Increase in the consumption of packaged foods, ready meals, and junk food is due to the rise in disposable incomes of consumers in the Americas. Therefore, the growing demand from the food industry is expected to accelerate the growth of the paper packaging market. In addition, the demand for paper packaging is expected to increase due to the growing awareness of biodegradable packaging solutions and the pressure from government authorities.
