Plastic Material is Expected to Hold a Significant Market Share
- The wide usage of plastic through all major packaging types is creating a market for plastic as a material. The flexibility, strength, and durability of the material make it ideal for the packaging of many liquids, cream, and powder products in the industry.
- Compared to other materials available in the market, plastic remains highly flexible and can be molded into any shape. Growth in demand from the retail industry, increasing dual-income households, and rising demand for plastic bottles are the major drivers for plastic products.
- Apart from its favorable properties, innovations, such as tamper-evidence caps and closures, are gaining popularity, which can lead to a crucial value add for the brand owners. This has driven the use of plastics across a variety of products.
- Furthermore, there is a gradual shift in customer preference towards the adoption of flexible plastic packaging over its rigid counterpart because of convenience and sustainability issues. Flexible plastic packaging materials are 80% lighter in weight than their equivalent rigid plastic materials, in addition to being cheaper.
- However, environmental concerns associated with plastics have resulted in a slowdown of market growth in the last decade.
- Nevertheless, with the advent of biodegradable plastics and the process of recycling, plastics are expected to sustain their usage in the packaging world.
