  • The Spanish plastic bottles market showcases a wide array of materials and applications, mirroring the country's vibrant consumer landscape. Polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) dominate the production of plastic bottles. PET stands out for its lightweight, transparent, and recyclable properties, making it the go-to choice for packaging beverages, including carbonated and non-carbonated soft drinks, energy drinks, and fruit juices. Beyond beverages, PET's versatility and durability have made it a staple in the food sector, packaging condiments like mayonnaise and ketchup and other food items requiring airtight and tamper-proof solutions.
  • In Spain, a rising demand for beverages in smaller packaging formats is driven by evolving consumer preferences and lifestyle trends. The shift toward convenience and on-the-go consumption has amplified the appeal of mini-sized bottles, especially for water, soft drinks, and energy drinks, catering to those prioritizing portability and portion control. Furthermore, the personal care and household products sectors are also bolstering the growth of the plastic bottles market as they increasingly seek sustainable packaging solutions.
  • Spain's thriving tourism industry, with the country being a favored travel destination, further amplifies this demand. Tourists often gravitate towards small, easily disposable bottles for convenience. According to an article from Invest in Spain in February 2024, Spain achieved record tourism figures in 2023, as reported by the Spanish Statistics Institute (Instituto Nacional de Estadística, INE), welcoming a total of 85.1 million international travelers throughout the year.
  • Material innovations are reshaping the market landscape. There is an intensified focus on bio-based plastics and other sustainable materials aimed at minimizing the environmental impact of plastic bottles. Companies are delving into alternatives like polylactic acid (PLA) and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), which are sourced from renewables and boast biodegradability. These materials resonate with the circular economy model, championing resource efficiency and waste reduction.
  • Numerous industry players are embracing sustainable strategies, fostering a mutually beneficial scenario across the country's value chain. For example, in July 2023, gr3n unveiled plans for a pioneering manufacturing plant in Spain specializing in microwave-assisted depolymerization of PET in collaboration with Intecsa Industrial. The polymers produced can be transformed into new bottles, trays, or garments, effectively replacing fossil fuel-derived feedstock. This innovation positions gr3n to potentially achieve bottle-to-textile, textile-to-textile, or even textile-to-bottle recycling, marking a significant shift from a linear to a circular system.

Spain Plastic Bottles Industry Overview

The Spanish plastic bottles market is fragmented due to the presence of several market players. Some major players are Amcor Group GmbH, Berry Global Inc., Alpla Group, Gerresheimer AG, and Alcion Packaging Solutions SL. The players are expected to leverage the opportunity posed by the growth of several end-user verticals and are innovating to expand their market presence.

  • October 2023: Berlin Packaging introduced eco-friendly, refillable packaging. This new collection builds upon the Infusion Fragrance packaging line, showcasing a 100 ml FEA 15 bottle. This version boasts a refillable design, complete with a screw neck and a twist pump. The innovative twist pump not only facilitates easy refills but also enables users to detach the pump from the bottle, simplifying the recycling process. Additionally, the refill packaging integrates a twist pump paired with the Neville 150 ml bottle.
  • March 2023: ALPLA Group, through its division ALPLApharma, partnered with Spanish packaging firm Inden Pharma to bolster its presence in the pharmaceutical market via a joint venture. ALPLApharma contributes production sites from Greece and Poland, while Inden Pharma adds its two existing facilities in Spain and a new one currently under construction in Germany.

Spain Plastic Bottles Market News

  • May 2024: Nestlé Spain's Water division announced its aim to ensure that by 2025, at least 50% of the PET plastic used in its bottle production will be recycled. To advance this initiative, the 'Nestlé Aquarel' formats of 0.75 cl and 1.5 l, previously using 50% rPET, are set toward the transition to 100% recycled plastic. Consequently, this year, Nestlé Spain plans to incorporate over 2,600 tons of rPET across its water formats. These bottles are produced at Nestlé’s bottling plants located in Herrera del Duque (Badajoz) and Arbúcies (Girona), both of which have been certified to the Alliance for Water Stewardship (AWS) standard for several years.
  • May 2024: PepsiCo's beverage plant in Northern Spain was on track to become the company's first global facility to achieve net-zero emissions by 2025. This achievement was made possible through the electrification of its operations, leading to the elimination of 1,849 tonnes of CO2 annually. Over the past five years, the plant has invested EUR 27 million (USD 29.54) in innovation and sustainability projects. These efforts align with PepsiCo Positive’s strategy, emphasizing a positive value chain and a comprehensive strategic transformation. This milestone comes on the heels of Spain's 2021 introduction of 100% recycled plastic bottles across the entire Pepsi range and a novel cardboard solution for can grouping. Moreover, Spain piloted tethered caps a year ahead of the European regulation.
