Medical Flexible Packaging Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028
The global medical flexible packaging market size reached US$ 26.1 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 39.7 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 7.05% during 2023-2028.
Flexible packaging protects products from moisture, ultraviolet (UV) rays, mold, dust, and other environmental contaminants while maintaining their quality and extending their shelf life. It is made using flexible materials, such as foil, plastics and papers, and widely available in pouches, bags and other formats. It requires less base material, which reduces production time and energy consumption, as compared to rigid packaging. Additionally, as it is lightweight, easy to dispose of, and requires less raw material during manufacturing, flexible packaging is extensively used by pharmaceutical companies around the world for the packaging of medicines and medical products and supplies.
Medical Flexible Packaging Market Trends:
At present, there is a rise in the need for reducing the overall packaging weight among pharmaceutical manufacturers, which represents one of the key factors driving the market. Apart from this, there is an increase in the utilization of disposable medical products to reduce the risk of surgical site infections and cross-contamination among patients as well as healthcare professionals. This, along with rising innovations in producing eco-friendly materials for packaging, is propelling the growth of the market. Additionally, rising environmental concerns and health issues among individuals due to the collection of non-biodegradable wastes worldwide are impelling the growth of the market. Besides this, the growing advancements in extrusion technology are positively influencing the sales of medical flexible packaging across the globe. Furthermore, the rising employment of biaxially-oriented polyethylene terephthalate (BOPET) and polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC) barrier films is stimulating the market growth. Some of the other growth-inducing factors are effective supply chain management, increasing efficiency in transportation of goods and rising health and hygiene values among the masses.
