According to a new report published by Allied Market Research, titled, “Green Packaging Market by Packaging Type and Application: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2014–2022,” the global green packaging market generated revenue of $132,556 million in 2015, and is expected to reach $207,543 million by 2022, growing at a CAGR of 5.41% from 2016 to 2022. The food & beverage segment accounted for more than three-fifths of overall share in the applications segment.
Rise in hygiene & health concerns among consumers boosts the demand for green packaging with applications in sustainable packaging. Moreover, stringent government regulations on nondegradable plastics and increase in demand for recycled packaging products have fueled the market growth. Furthermore, reverse logistics in packaging industry has eased the transportation of municipal wastes to recycle plants. Initiatives by multinational companies such as Dow Chemical Company, Henkel AG & KGaA, and Mitsubishi Corporation to promote sustainable development by forming a community called “Together for Sustainability” provides opportunity to the market. This initiative supports the United Nations Global Compact and Responsible Care to achieve sustainable development.
The recycle content packaging segment is expected to grow with a CAGR of 4.92%. Bioplastics have flourished in healthcare and pharmaceutical applications, and are accepted as an alternative for polymer oil-based products. In addition, reverse logistics and increase in number of legislations for ecological packaging techniques have facilitated the recycle of municipal wastes.
KEY FINDINGS OF THE STUDY
• The European region is expected to continue to lead the market, followed by North America during the forecast period.
