Egg Packaging

Packaging for eggs is forecast to grow 2.4% per year to $942 million in 2025, supported by the continued popularity of eggs and liquid egg whites as an economical, nutritious, and easy-to-prepare food. Gains will be further supported by the growing usage of higher value materials for egg cartons due to sustainability concerns and heightened foodservice demand as restaurants rebound post-lockdowns.
