They are majorly used for packing bakery products, groceries, beverages, ready-to-eat meals and dairy products.

Furthermore, the implementation of favorable policies promoting the use of paper-based contact paper and boards as an alternative for plastic and aluminum packaging materials is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Owing to growing environmental consciousness and enhanced focus on the sustainable way of living, consumer preferences are rapidly shifting toward bio-degradable and compostable food packaging products. Additionally, the growing demand for ready-to-eat and packed foods, along with a significant increase in the number of fast-food serving cafes, restaurants and hotels, is also creating a positive outlook for the market growth. With evolving lifestyles and increasing preference for hygienic foods, several brands and companies are opting for food-grade contact papers and boards, which are utilized for safe distribution and transportation of food products.
