Dairy Packaging Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028

The global dairy packaging market size reached US$ 23.4 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 30.0 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.13% during 2023-2028.

Packaging plays a vital role in the distribution of dairy products which are highly perishable in nature. Proper and effective packaging protects the contents from contamination and facilitates storage and transportation. Over the years, dairy packaging has evolved from glass bottles to polyethylene pouches, paperboard cartons and tins to tetra packs and aluminum cans. The increasing distribution of dairy products through organized retail channels has also increased the demand for dairy packaging across the world. Moreover, packaging provides information to consumers about the product ingredients through the medium of labeling which helps in improving the marketability of the product.

Market Drivers:
With rising environmental concerns, the leading dairy companies are adopting eco-friendly packaging to reduce their environmental impact and to preserve natural resources. For instance, Nestlé is working to make its packaging 100% recyclable or reusable by 2026, which will help in reducing the company’s carbon footprints.
Leading dairy companies are introducing products in innovative and convenient packaging formats, such as tetra packs, glass bottles, clear tubs and squeezable pouches. Some vendors are also offering yogurt in PE-HD bottles sealed with either aluminum foil, laminated heat-seal closures or PE-LD caps or lids to protect the contents from oxidation and delay the fading of light-sensitive colors.
Packaging manufacturers are introducing innovative products such as modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) with aseptic and antimicrobial properties. This type of packaging helps in extending the shelf-life of dairy products to up to 90 days under refrigeration storage by controlling the associated fungal contamination.
