Title:Global Eco-Friendly Food Packaging Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Material Type (Paper & Paperboard, Plastic, Metal, and Glass), By Packaging Type (Recycled Content Packaging, Degradable Packaging, and Reusable Packaging), and by Application (Beverages, Bakery and Confectionery, Dairy Products, Meat Products, Fruits and Vegetables, and Convenience Food) Forecast Period (2022-2028).
The global eco-friendly food packaging market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 7.5 % during the forecast period. Rising environmental concerns, eco-friendly packaging is being adopted by food and beverage companies across the globe. The material is made from non-toxic which reduces carbon footprints, is biodegradable, easily disposable, and can be reused or recycled. The benefits associated with eco-friendly food packaging are expected to create demand for the market during the forecast period. However, in Asian countries, less than 50% population has access to the waste recycling infrastructure due to poor waste collection and sorting processes. The absence of a well-monitored waste management infrastructure in countries such as Indonesia and the Philippines and the absence of strict laws and regulations from the government are expected to hinder the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The global eco-friendly food packaging market is segmented based on the material type, packaging type, and application. Based on the material type, the market is sub-segmented into paper & paperboard, plastic, metal, and glass. Based on the packaging type, the market is further sub-segmented into recycled content packaging, degradable packaging, and reusable packaging. Based on the application, the market is augmented into beverages, bakery & confectionery, dairy products, meat products, fruits & vegetables, and convenience food. Among the packaging type, the reusable segment is expected to hold a remarkable share in the market during the forecast period. The companies are adopting reusable packaging solutions which are contributing to the growth of the market. For instance, in 2019, Nestle used 4.6 million tons of packaging materials. The company's global plastics and laminate use were 1.5 million tons in 2019 compared to 1.6 million tons in 2018. Nestle managed to reduce it by approximately 10% in 2019, even though its business grew by 3.5%. In 2018, 66% of the total plastic used by the company was recyclable or reused. Nestle's overall plastic usage in 2019 in comparison to 2018 has reduced, especially for PET and PP plastic types.
Geographically, the global eco-friendly food packaging market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World. The Europe region is expected to hold a prominent market share during the forecast period. The companies are highly focused on reducing the amount of plastic and are engaging in determining how recyclable their packaging is. For instance, in January 2022, RecyClass is a cross-industry initiative that works to advance plastic packaging recyclability and to establish a harmonized approach toward recycled content calculation and traceability in Europe.
The major companies serving the global eco-friendly food packaging market include Amcor Plc, Ball Corp., BASF SE, Berry Global Inc., Crown Holdings Inc., Elopak AS, GWP Group Ltd., and others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers and acquisitions, partnerships, collaborations, funding, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market.
