Market Definition

The egg packaging is the type of packaging used to carry and transport eggs safely. This packaging is characterized as ensuring that eggs are at maximum safety against rotting of eggs and outside impact. Due to a busy lifestyle and saving time, consumers opt to order eggs from an e-commerce portal or home delivery. This has generated an enormous demand for egg packaging. The egg packaging is available based on material, and they are as follows:

Plastic is a synthetic material made of various organic polymers such as polyethylene, PVC, nylon, and other plastics that can be molded easily into many shapes and are elastic. The shape of plastic produced depends on the size of the eggs and the number of eggs. It has excellent stability, which avoids egg breakage.

Paper is made from wood pulp or rags or any material used for writing, printing, or packing materials. The biodegradable packaging with paper improves the maintenance of products with an easy manufacturing process. Paper trays for storing eggs is widely used by manufacturers and retailers across the globe.

Molded fiber/pulp packaging is a biodegradable material made from various fibrous materials or other natural fibers such as (sugarcane, bamboo, and wheat straw).  Molded pulp provides optimum protection fragile eggs through its transportation from poultry to end user.

Regulatory Framework

The “food and drug administration” and “the department of agriculture” oversee egg labelling in the United States. According to their rules, egg labels must provide the following information:

  • The product name or a statement of identity = Eggs
  • USDA classification of eggs: A.A. or A grade (voluntary)
  • Egg size - Jumbo, Extra Large, Large, Medium, or Small (not required for egg carton labels without a grading mark)
  • The USDA's official inspection mark.

Market Dynamics of the Egg Packaging Market Include:

  • Strengthening of government regulations related to packaging

Bio-based bioplastics made from agricultural feedstocks such as corn, soybeans, or sugarcane are formed to boost the healthy environment and reduce carbon foot caused due to plastics. Increasing awareness regarding bioplastics for packaging will encourage manufacturers in the packaging industries to use bioplastic materials. Hence, strengthening the government rules related to packaging tends to be a significant driver of the market growth.

  • Rise in the e-commerce, courier, and food delivery services across the globe

E-commerce is one of the boosting industries. Due to the busy lifestyle and increased disposable income of the consumer, they are highly opting for e-commerce services. Therefore, the growth of e-commerce, courier, and delivery services is anticipated to increase the demand for molded fiber packaging products, which will help boost the U.S. egg packaging market.

U.S. Egg Packaging Market

  • Growing consumer awareness related to ecofriendly packaging

Manufacturers are manufacturing eco-friendly egg trays available on local stores and online platforms to reduce toxic waste and lower the carbon footprint. Due to increased plastic waste in America, the government and manufacturers insist on using eco-friendly packaging solutions. Hence, increased eco-friendly egg packaging due to the growing awareness of eco-friendly packaging is acting as a driver for the market.

  • Health benefits of eggs

Several benefits of eggs will create a demand for them across the globe. Growing awareness regarding being healthy is going to generate demand for eggs. With several health benefits, such as promoting a healthy heart, eyes, and brain, eggs are considered one of the most nutritious foods. This is expected to generate a demand for eggs across the globe and help grow the market.

  • Production of polylactic acid (PLA) from sugarcane and corn

Polylactic acids or PLA are being produced as an alternative to petroleum-based plastics. They are inexpensive and recyclable materials balancing the sources and creating a plant-based replacement product instead of fossil fuels. Their excellent biodegradability property increases the need for the development of the product. The production of polylactic acid or PLA from agricultural feedstock such as corn and sugarcane is growing rapidly due to their less toxic chemical properties. It marks an excellent opportunity for a brighter future for the market.

Restraints/Challenges Faced by the Egg Packaging Market

  • Phase-out of single-use plastics  

Government bans on single-use plastics can decrease the demand for egg cartons and trays of EPS and other plastics. As these plastic are non-very expensive and helps to keep eggs fresh, many manufacturers and suppliers use plastics tray and cartoons. However, government legislation to phase out single-use plastic can disturb the manufacturing of the players engaging in plastic egg packaging products. This can decrease the rate of egg packing production and may hinder the market's growth.

  • High focus on recyclable and bio-based non-biodegradable plastic production

The biodegradable plastic packaging is not entirely compostable. As plastics are not designed to degrade without specific treatment, it is still harmful to the environment as conventional plastic comes from fossil fuels. Hence, the production of recyclable and bio-based plastics is growing, restraining the market growth.

  • Maintaining the standard quality of molded fibers

Molded fiber packaging products are manufactured from pulpwood, which is not always the same quality as the pulp is taken from different trees that vary the pulp's quality. Manufacturing with other wood pulp quality will also make the variation in the quality of molded fiber packaging products, which is a challenge for the manufacturers. At some time, molded fiber packaging products also tear up due to the low quality of raw materials used.

COVID-19 had a Minimal Impact on Egg Packaging Market

COVID-19 impacted various manufacturing industries in the year 2020-2021 as it led to the closure of workplaces, disruption of supply chains, and restrictions on transportation. Due to the lockdown, the egg packaging market has experienced a significant impact on the import and export of egg products over the past few years. The consumers' growing interest in e-commerce, courier, and food delivery services increases the egg packaging market growth. With increasing awareness about the health benefits of eggs and boosting immune system is contributing to the growth of market after Covid.
