Beer Packaging Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Packaging Material (Glass, Metal, Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) and Other Packaging Materials), Packaging Type (4-Packs, 6-Packs, 12-Packs and Other Packaging Types), Application and By Geography


According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Beer Packaging Market is accounted for $12.1 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $16.7 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 5.6% during the forecast period. Technology used in packaging is referred to as beer packaging. The most important step in the production of beer is beer packaging, which accounts for up to a typical portion of the total method's value. While in packaging, beer should be protected from contamination by stray yeast and oxygen exposure because it shortens the shelf life. While machine-controlled packaging lines are used in large breweries, many breweries used manual filling to package beer.

According to Beer Institute Annual Report in 2018, the U.S. beer industry sells more than US $119.3 billion in beer and malt-based beverages to U.S. consumers each year.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Growing popularity of craft beer & Rise in the number of breweries

One of the key factors propelling the beer packaging market is the rising demand for craft beer. Due to its distinctive flavors and ingredients, craft beer is becoming more and more popular with consumers, necessitating specialized packaging options. The demand for beer packaging is also being driven by the growth in the number of breweries. New breweries have been established as a result of the expansion of the craft beer industry, which is anticipated to increase demand for beer packaging.

Restraint:

Government regulations

The market for beer packaging is governed by a number of laws and regulations, which may limit market expansion. Manufacturers of beer packaging are subject to a plethora of laws governing alcoholic beverage production, labeling, and distribution. For instance, restrictions on the use of specific packaging materials may raise production costs and have an impact on manufacturers' profit margins, which is adversely affecting the market.

Opportunity:

Expansion of beer industry in emerging markets

Beer markets in emerging nations like China, India, and Brazil are expanding quickly, opening up new business opportunities for packaging manufacturers. Due to various investments and greater beer consumption in various regions, it is anticipated that this trend will continue and intensify, which might facilitate the packaging market.

Threat:

Environment concerns & competition from alternative beverages

Due to environmental concerns, the market for beer packaging is coming under increasing pressure to adopt sustainable packaging options. This could raise the cost of production and have an impact on the profit margins of manufacturers, which would limit the market's expansion. The beer industry and its packaging market are also challenged by the rise in popularity of non-alcoholic beverages like wine and spirits.

Covid-19 Impact

Worldwide beverage production has been halted by the COVID-19 pandemic as a result of decreased brewer demand, the closure of neighborhood bars, pubs, and restaurants, and the lockdown of supermarkets and specialty grocery stores. The largest category of alcoholic beverages is made up of beers. 90% of the 900 brewers surveyed by the Brewers Association in the United States reported that COVID-19 had a negative impact on their business through on-site sales, distributor orders, or the cancellation of planned events. The brewers also acknowledged that 61% of production had slowed down and 30% of brewery production had halted. Throughout this time, spirit manufacturing companies have taken steps to produce the hand sanitizer and other necessities needed to combat COVID-19.

The glass segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

Over the course of the forecast period, glass packaging material is anticipated to hold the largest share in the market. This is primarily attributable to their numerous benefits, such as their ability to keep beer fresher for longer periods of time than other alternative packaging materials and their ability to be reused. Beer is packaged in returnable glass because it shields the beer from light and keeps it from being skunked, making it an attractive option for businesses. Glass also gives the packaging a more genuine appearance and accommodates a range of consumer preferences.

The canned segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Due to its convenience, canned beer's segment is predicted to experience the highest growth rate during the forecast period. Industry growth is anticipated to be fueled by rising consumption of canned beers like Heineken, Modelo Especial, and Corona, among others. Additionally, canned beers have benefits like a longer shelf life, easier recycling with less energy, and protection from UV rays that lengthen the beer's life. Such extensive benefits fuel the segment's expansion.

Region with largest share:

The beer packaging industry in the Asia-Pacific region is primarily driven by shifting cultural trends, rising urbanization, and increased popularity of beer among younger people. The demand for PET beverage bottles and cans in the area is extremely high. Low prices and booming end-user industries, like those for RTD tea and coffee, bottled water, and juices, are primarily responsible over this. Additionally, the consumption of premium and high-quality beers is growing in this region due to a significant increase in the number of working-class people and an increase in people's disposable incomes. As a result, this is driving the market for beer packaging.

Region with highest CAGR:

Due to numerous investments and greater beer penetration, the North American region is estimated to witness lucrative growth throughout the forecast period. Demand for plastic packaging is anticipated to be driven by the U.S.'s strong manufacturing base of international producers like PepsiCo Inc., Tyson Foods Inc., Nestle, Kraft Heinz Co., The Coca-Cola Company, Anheuser-Busch InBev, and JBS USA. Additionally, the 'on-the-go' lifestyle of consumers in North America has caused the beverage industry to grow quickly, which is likely to fuel regional market expansion over the forecast period.
