Several partnerships between packaging manufacturers and brand owners are being formed to establish circular supply chains for recycling packaging waste.
Market Drivers and Restrain
The key drivers for sustainable packaging market include stringent government regulations on single use plastics and awareness programs aimed at reducing plastic pollution. Most countries have implemented bans on certain non-recyclable plastic items like straws, cutlery and packaging to push sustainable alternatives. Recycling targets set by the EU and other regions also drive packaging innovation towards recyclability.
However, high costs of developing truly sustainable packaging solutions from renewable
resources act as a key restraint. Traditional plastic packaging still remains
significantly cheaper than recyclable paper or biodegradable alternatives. Lack
of robust waste management infrastructure in many regions also limits large
scale recyclability of packaging globally.
Segment Analysis
The Sustainable
Packaging Market Size AND Trends segment is dominated by plastic
packaging segment which held a share of around 38% in 2024. This is due to the
fact that plastics are the most commonly used packaging material today owing to
their versatility, moisture and air resistant properties. However, single-use
plastics have severe detrimental effects on the environment. Therefore, the
market is witnessing a shift towards biodegradable plastics packaging segment.
Biodegradable plastics are derived from renewable plant-based sources like
corn, sugarcane etc. or are plastics that can break down and decompose into
carbon dioxide, water, and biomass. They offer the same functionality as
conventional plastics while ensuring minimal environmental impact. Thus, the
biodegradable plastics packaging segment is expected to dominate the
sustainable packaging market during the forecast period on account of stringent
government regulations regarding single-use plastics and rising consumer
awareness.
Europe held the largest share of around 40% in the global sustainable packaging
market in 2024 owing to favorable regulatory environment and growing
environmental consciousness among consumers in the region. Various acts and
directives passed by European Union such as Circular Economy Act, Waste
Framework Directive promote sustainable packaging practices. Moreover, presence
of major sustainable packaging companies as well as supportive government
initiatives drive the market growth. Asia Pacific is expected to witness the
fastest growth during the forecast period. This can be attributed to rapid
industrialization and urbanization, rising disposable incomes, growing focus of
manufacturers on eco-friendly packaging in countries like China and India.
Additionally, transition from conventional to sustainable packaging aided by
governmental actions and sustainability targets across nations contribute to
the regional market expansion.
