Market Opportunities

  • Increasing demand for flexible packaging in the e-commerce sector
  • Rising launches of innovative packaging to increase the market growth

Market Definition

Flexible packaging is a non-rigid structure that packages and protects many products in various end-user industries. Flexible packaging covers those products which have undergone a conversion process such as printing, coating, lamination, and extrusion, and can involve different substrates such as plastic films, paper, and foil. Flexible pack types include aluminum foil laminates, foil lidding, blister packaging, foil bags, plastic bags, wrapping films, lidding films, and sachets.

Flexible Packaging Market Dynamics

Drivers

  • Growing consumption of packaged and processed food

The increasing consumption of packaged and processed food is expected to drive the growth of the flexible packaging market during the forecast period. Packaged foods are those food products that have been frozen, packaged, canned, cooked, or changed in nutritional composition and are fortified and preserved in different ways. Food brands are adopting flexible packaging, which involves different packages that are simply molded. Hence, high consumption of packaged and processed food will likely propel the demand for flexible packaging in the market.

  • Increasing consumer focus on sustainability and convenience

The growing inclination of consumers towards sustainability and convenience products is another major factor that is likely to propel the market. The changing consumer preferences are because of hectic lifestyles and demand for smaller household units that are easy to use, carry, open, store, and dispose of, catering to their on-the-go lifestyles. Packaging convenience is a major buying motivator for consumers. It affects the consumer preference towards a particular design or packaging type and influences their behavior. Hence, these factors are likely to boost market growth.

Opportunities

  • Rising launches of innovative packaging to increase the market growth

Launching innovative packaging to expand the company's customer base and attract more customers is a major factor likely to create lucrative opportunities for market growth. The companies operating in the flexible packaging market focus on manufacturing sustainable and innovative packaging solutions for end-users. For instance, FreeForm Packaging AB launched one-sided stretchable paper laminate in 2021, based on 85 percent paper. Stretchable paper laminate has two layers. These layers of polyethylene are present to protect packaging and content.

  • Increasing demand for flexible packaging in the e-commerce sector

Increasing demand for digital printing and e-commerce is expected to create lucrative opportunities for market growth. Flexible packaging is well suited to e-commerce because it minimizes shipping costs due to their lightweight and can be built to accurately match small package transport. For instance, increasing demand for flexible packaging from Amazon and other e-commerce retailers for specific flexible packaging standards that should withstand the parcel shipping process has generated immense opportunities for major players to bring the latest technology to the global market.

Restraints/ Challenges

  • Increasing environmental concerns by the usage of flexible plastic packaging

Rising environmental concerns restricted the usage of flexible plastic packaging, which is likely to hamper the flexible packaging market growth during the forecast period. Non-recyclable plastic bags have become a major source of pollution globally. There are concerns about plastic in marine litter and waste. Hence, these concerns proved to be a major challenge to the flexible packaging industry.

  • High cost associated with flexible packaging

The high cost of flexible packaging is another major factor limiting the market growth during the forecast period. This is mainly attributed to the high cost of recycling and processing packaging materials, high labor costs, and fluctuation in the price of raw materials. These factors are also the major challenging factor for the growth of the market in the coming years.
