Market Definition

Molded fiber packaging is made from different number of fibrous materials, such as recycled cardboard, paper, or other natural fibers such as bamboo, sugarcane, wheat straw. The raw materials help to determine the surface texture, strength and color of the packaging. Molded fiber packaging is formed to shape. It does not start as a flat sheet. As a substitute, it has complex three-dimensional shapes for instance, egg cartons.     

North America Molded Fiber Packaging Market Dynamics

Drivers 

  • Increase in the Demand of Food Industry

Molded fiber packaging is mostly used in the food and beverages industry to protect the fragile products such as medicine bottles from environment. This packaging has a superb barrier properties against oxygen and moisture which protects the product from the outside atmosphere. Molded fiber packaging is easy to handle and has a long shelf life, beneficial for the producers.

  • Rise in the Demand of Sustainability Packaging Solution

Increasing the importance of sustainability in the environment has also aided in making fiber packaging an attractive option for consumers. It has not made only from recycled materials, it can also be easily recycled again after its valuable life-cycle. The molded fibers in packaging are biodegradable, unlike Styrofoam and plastic packaging which are expected to drive the growth of the market.

Opportunities

  • Customization and Innovation of Materials

Advances in technology have made it possible to create highly customized and innovative molded fiber packaging solutions. Companies can explore unique shapes, designs, and functionalities to cater to specific product needs. One of the primary ways to stand out in the market is by offering custom shapes and sizes of molded fiber packaging. This allows brands to create unique and memorable packaging solutions that can better accommodate their specific products. Customization can be especially important for products with irregular shapes or specific packaging requirements.

  • Strong Macroeconomic Policies and Ambitious Structural Reforms

Sound macroeconomic policies and ambitious structural reforms paved a strong growth way for the extremely rising economies. Due to high development projections for end-use industries in emerging markets are expected to increase the demand for molded fibre packaging in upcoming years. Growing preference for biodegradable and eco-friendly products for packaging drives the demand for the North America molded fiber packaging market. Increasing investment in R&D mainly in the emerging countries acts as an opportunity for the North America market growth rate.

Restraints/Challenges

  • Fluctuation in the Cost of Wood Pulp

Fluctuation in the cost of wood pulp is anticipated to restrain the demand of the molded fiber packaging during forecast period of 2023 to 2030. Maintaining the standard quality is the challenging factor for the North America molded fiber packaging market in upcoming future. Inability to carry heavy goods and Non-availability of handle support in molded fiber packaging are the major restrains that will hinder the market's growth rate.

  • Limited Material Properties

Molded fiber may not be suitable for all product types or applications due to its limited material properties. It may not offer the same level of protection as plastics or other materials in some cases. Adhering to manufacturer guidelines and working with experienced HVAC professionals can provide valuable insights and ensure proper maintenance practices are followed. Also, the lack of favorable reimbursement scenarios and technology penetration in the developing economies, heavy custom duty imposed on medical devices, and lack of suitable infrastructure in low- and middle-income countries are projected to challenge the market in the forecast period of 2023-2030.
