Global Soaker Pads Market: Dynamics

The global soaker pads market is expected to grow against the backdrop of the growth in the food retail sector across the globe. There have been many changes to materials used for soaker pads. The introduction of non-wovens in food soaker pads reduced consumption of tissue and fluff pulp food soaker pads, which were used initially. Manufacturers of soaker pads are expected to continue their shift in preference for non-wovens. Two of the leading manufacturers of soaker pads in the region – Novipax and Paper Pak – use non-wovens to form the highly absorbent top and bottom layers of the soaker pads. The growth in the demand for soaker pads is also expected to boost the consumption of micro-perforated films for food packaging. There has been growth in consumption of fresh meat, especially in the Asia Pacific region.

Consumption of fresh meat is projected to expand at a CAGR of over 3% during the forecast period, by value. As more consumers turn to brick-and-mortar retail stores, the demand for soaker pads is expected to grow, with an increasing number of retailers focusing on consumer appeal of the product. Global Soaker Pads Market: Regional Outlook The North America soaker pads market is expected to be at the forefront of market growth during the forecast period.
