• The demand for ampoule packaging is expected to grow as the pharmaceutical industry in North America is growing significantly in terms of innovation and competitiveness despite its mature status compared to other areas. A rise in environmental concerns and increasing spending on healthcare infrastructure has sparked the development and innovation of eco-friendly packing solutions.
• The growth in patients with acute and chronic illnesses has directly and positively impacted the demand for ampoule packaging. The market is expected to grow due to the rise in demand for sterile, tamper-proof, and non-reactive items with excellent performance.
• Canada's surging demand for injectable pharmaceuticals is significantly boosting the market’s growth. The strong demand for oncology treatments and other high-potency drugs, like antibody conjugates, steroids, and IV fluids that necessitate a rapid onset of action, is anticipated to be the primary growth catalyst.
• The rising demand for sterile medical packaging products from pharmaceutical industries is set to propel the growth of the market during the forecast period. StatCan projects that in 2024, the revenue from Canada's pharmaceutical and medicine manufacturing industry will reach USD 9.94 billion.
• Historically, manufacturers have relied on glass to produce ampoules. However, with the widespread availability and cost-effectiveness of plastic, its adoption has surged, significantly driving down ampoule costs. This affordability stands out as a key advantage of plastic ampoules compared to their counterparts. Consumers increasingly favor unit-dose parenteral packaging over multi-dose alternatives. In the United States, data from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) indicates that unit-dose plastic ampoules constitute nearly 24% of the pharmaceutical packaging market. Furthermore, they are poised to outpace others in terms of value, presenting above-average growth prospects.
• However, concerns over ampoule dumping are hindering the expansion of the market. Given that plastics are not easily decomposed, they pose significant environmental challenges. The rising use of sustainable materials, like green or biodegradable plastics, in ampoule production bodes well for the market's growth.
• Stringent legislation aimed at enhancing the integrity and quality of domestically produced pharmaceuticals has led to increased use of glass in pharmaceutical packaging. The rising demand for sterile medical packaging in the pharmaceutical industry is projected to drive market growth during the forecast period.
