Stringent Environment Regulations Promote Sustainable Packaging Market

In recent years we have witnessed a change in consumer preference towards recyclable and ecological materials. This is one of the principal drivers of sustainable packaging growth on the market. In the context of global environmental concerns relating to sustainable development and implementation of strict legislation by different governments, the use of sustainable packaging materials has expanded globally. Over the forecast period it will probably be possible to increase demand in the global sustainable packaging market for alternative materials such as bioplastics. 

Downsizing to Emerge as Prominent Market Trend 

The key trends of industry include reduction or light weighting, increased recycling, recovery of waste, increased use of renewable products, increased utilization of recycled material and improvements in packaging and logistics. In the coming years it is expected that edible packaging products made of natural ingredients will become more popular. A range of international companies, including Hovis, have launched renewable polyethylene-based bread packaging. The packaging formats of Dixie Egg Company, Gillette Razors, and Wolfgang Puck Coffee, etc... are excellent. This style of packaging is not only environmentally friendly, these would be alluring enough for the customers. Such trends are expected to positively influence the global sustainable packaging market in the coming years.

But liquid biofuels are projected to hinder the global growth of sustainable packaging markets by high cost of raw materials used for making sustainable packaging such as bio-based monomers. The increasing campaigns by the government to educate consumers about the advantages of environmentally friendly products and the harmful effects of toxic packing materials are nevertheless expected to benefit industry growth during the forecast period.
