A rising focus on sustainability majorly propels the global flexible packaging market; traditional rigid packaging solutions are being substituted by innovative and more sustainable solutions, flexible packaging
Technology and creativity have developed and continue to define flexible packaging. This tri-fold details flexible packaging and how it is at the forefront of important packaging trends, such as product protection, design and performance, consumer convenience, and sustainability. Besides, traditional rigid packaging solutions are being replaced with creative and more sustainable flexible packaging due to the growing emphasis on sustainability. As a viable and cost-effective alternative, the increasing consumer demand for customer-friendly packages and improved quality security is expected to improve flexible packaging.
For instance, manufacturers of beauty goods, such as L'Oréal and Unilever, are now investing in environmentally friendly packaging techniques to make the use of plastics in the personal care industry more sustainable. For example, L'Oréal participated in the capital increase carried out by Carbios in June 2019, which is developing new bio-industrial solutions to reinvent the life cycle of plastics.
Improving E-commerce, digital printing, and sustainability increases the demand for flexible packaging, thus driving market development and growth.
Flexible packaging is best suited to e-commerce, minimizing shipping costs as a lightweight packaging medium, and it can be built to precisely match small package transport. Shipping containers can protect difficult-to-ship goods with built-in air pockets, and pouches that stand up to air pressure and drop through the logistics channels can be used. Manufacturers are developing a business focus that caters to flexible packaging for this channel, including the specific requirements and durability solutions needed.
For instance, increasing demand from Amazon and other e-commerce retailers for specific flexible packaging standards and packaging that should withstand the parcel shipping process has created immense opportunities for key players to bring the latest technology to the market. Amazon also required extra shrink bands to prevent leaking or that liquid be packaged in a pouch. This can drive the manufacturer to produce liquids in pouches as they are a less cost-effective alternative.
September 2019 - In Manchester, Michigan, USA, Amcor opened an e-commerce testing laboratory. With this, the company will cater to customers' online sales, particularly in pet food, sauces, cosmetics, and personal care, and home cleaning products. This laboratory is accredited for analyzing ISTA 6A packaged goods.
The growing demand for flexible plastic packaging among different end-users leads to an increase in the percentage of pollution, which hurdles the growth of flexible packaging in recent times
According to the World Economic Forum, at least 8 million tons of plastic leak into the ocean every year, which is equal to pouring the contents of one garbage truck into the ocean every minute. This is predicted to rise to two per minute by 2030 and four per minute by 2050, causing the ecosystem to be destroyed. About 90% of all the pollution in the oceans is made from plastic. Estimates say that the largest share is flexible plastic packaging. Recycling is also a big challenge in the flexible packaging industry, which offers value for re-use and contributes to lower waste; thus, increasing demand for flexible plastic packaging is hurdling the market's growth in recent times.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
In 2020-2021, the global demand for flexible packaging is projected to see a modest decline in its growth rate, as the packaging industry is experiencing a major decline in production. Nevertheless, there appears to be a rise in demand for flexible packaging for food, beverage, and pharmaceutical packaging applications during COVID-19. In the pharmaceutical industry, demand for flexible packaging is expected to remain robust as hospitals, medications, and PPE manufacturers respond to the crisis. It is not anticipated that demand for household necessities, healthcare, and medical supplies will decline significantly, and retail distribution via online delivery for these types of items can be expected to increase. Thus, the outbreak of COVID-19 has shown a moderate impact on the flexible packaging market's growth, particularly in the 2020-2021 period.
