Packaging Additives Market size is projected to expand at over 4.4% CAGR from 2024 to 2032. The increasing demand for packaged goods across various industries, including food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics is fueling the need for additives to enhance product protection, shelf life and visual appeal. Rising stringent regulations regarding food safety and sustainability are encouraging manufactures to launch new additives solutions to match the escalating market needs. For instance, in September 2023, Tosaf, a manufacturer of additives, developed UV9389PE EU, a barrier solution to effectively block UV radiation (200 nm to 380 nm) at low thicknesses.
Technological developments in packaging and materials are also creating opportunities for innovative additives to offer improved functionality and performance. The growing trend of convenience packaging and e-commerce is attracting companies seeking additives to address specific packaging challenges in these sectors. The rising consumer preference for eco-friendly and recyclable packaging is further promoting the development of sustainable additives, adding to the industry growth.
The packaging additives market is segregated into type of additive, packaging material, functionality, and region.
Based on additive type, the market size from the antistatic agents segment is expected to expand at substantial rate from 2024 to 2032, on account of the increasing use of electronic devices and sensitive equipment in packaging. Antistatic agents prevent static electricity buildup for ensuring the protection of electronic components and sensitive materials during packaging and transportation, thus, meeting the demands for safe and reliable packaging solutions in various industries.
In terms of packaging material, the packaging additives industry from the glass segment will grow at notable pace between 2024 and 2032, owing to the increasing demand for eco-friendly and recyclable packaging solutions.
