MEA Rigid Plastic Packaging Market Share

Market Share of MEA Rigid Plastic Packaging Industry

The rigid plastic packaging market in the Middle East and Africa is fragmented. Manufacturers seek lightweight, high-performing plastic grades to reduce costs and improve packaging performance. Some of the most well-known rigid plastic packaging manufacturers include Amcor PLC, ALPLA, Nampak Ltd, Al Jabri Plastics, and Polyoak Packaging Group.

• May 2024: ALPLA, a global packaging specialist, and Refriango, a beverage producer, jointly launched their second in-house plant at Refriango's Viana site in Angola. This strategic initiative is designed to boost operational efficiency, increase production capacity, and lower the carbon footprint of both entities. The newly inaugurated facility, named ALPLA Sopro, is specifically focused on the production of secure, cost-effective, and eco-friendly plastic packaging.
• July 2023: Packaging specialist ALPLA launched a new brand, ALPLArecycling. The plastic packaging company had 13 plants, including four joint ventures with regional partners. It aims to process at least 25% post-consumer (PCR) material by 2025. After investing millions into new sites in South Africa, Romania, and Thailand, as well as a site extension in Poland, ALPLA consolidated all its activities under ALPLArecycling.
