Blister Packaging Market Growth & Trends

The global blister packaging market size is expected to reach USD 46.72 billion by 2030, expanding at 7.4% CAGR from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. This market growth is attributed to the increasing demand from healthcare end-use industries for tamper-evident packaging designs provided by blister packaging solutions and their high visibility properties.

This packaging solution is often used for tamper-evident packaging as it provides a sealed and visible container for products, allowing consumers to see if the product has been opened or tampered with. This type of packaging also makes it difficult to replace the product with counterfeit or other harmful substances without breaking the seal, providing an additional layer of protection for consumers.

Moreover, the demand for blister packaging is being driven by advancements in packaging design, including child-resistant packaging configurations, the emphasis on the use of recyclable materials, and the introduction of smart blister packaging solutions to provide information about the product and monitor its usage.

The industry players are adopting several strategies including partnerships, expansions, mergers & acquisitions, joint ventures, and partnership agreements to increase the customer base and individual market share. For instance, in January 2023, TekniPlex announced an expansion in its product portfolio by launching a highly visible and mid-barrier polypropylene (PE) blister packaging solution to cater to the healthcare end-use industry.
