Food Clamshells Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Product (Mock Clamshellss, 2-piece Clamshellss and Other Products), Application (Bakery & Confectionery, Frozen Food and Other Applications), Material and By Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Food Clamshells Market is accounted for $1.5 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $2.18 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 6.42% during the forecast period. Food clamshells are containers consisting of two halves joined by a hinge area which allow the structures to come together to close. These food containers are lightweight, economical, re-sealable, and have become quite popular in the packaging industry during last few decades. They are ideal for packaging fresh foods such as fresh fruits and vegetables, ready-made salads, and sandwiches on account of their various advantages. These packaging solutions protect fresh food while showcasing the contents and can be sealed for safety with a tamper evident label.

According to the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India, the packaging market in India has grown rapidly over the past few years, which is expected to continue over the forecasted period. The packaging industry is expected to reach US$ 204.8 Bn in the country.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increase in consumption of packed and ready-to-eat food

Convenience food and ready-to-eat food are becoming more popular. Eating habits in urban areas are changing, due to the exponential rise in working population. Consumers regularly complain about opening and sealing of packaging; however, food clamshells are ideal for food items that call for repeated package openings. This practical packaging option is propelling the growth of the market.

Restraint:

Not applicable for raw meat and liquids

Clamshells absorb odours and flavours and can melt during extreme heat. Liquids can flow out if it is not properly packed and high risk of leakage is possible. It does not allow air into it and if raw meat is stored for long time it may cause bacteria and leads to serious illness. Hot liquids can melt the clamshells and this concern hinders the growth of the market.

Opportunity:

Growth of e-commerce and online food delivery system

The distribution medium has shifted to online food ordering and delivery due to the increase in demand for food. This is helping to cater to a wider set of customers since food is delivered at home and requires no customer effort. Several customers opt for food delivery rather than eating out at food outlets/restaurants. Food clamshells market players are expected to witness significant growth opportunities due to the penetration of e-commerce.

Threat:

Environmental concerns

Plastic clamshell packets are considered harmful to the environment as these do not decompose quickly. Usage of plastic is banned in several countries and many others have strict restrictions of usage of plastic products. This is expected to hamper the growth of the clamshells market.

Covid-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on the food clamshells market, as food is an essential commodity. Food companies across the world remained operational during the pandemic. People have been increasingly opting for online food delivery options during the pandemic. This has created lucrative opportunities for food clamshells manufacturers. The market is projected to grow at a faster pace during the forecast period.

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

The plastic segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, due to their durability, better transportation and storage properties. They are apt for the digital printers as they help companies to print their logo and material description on the clamshell only. It helps in increasing the reusability. This segment is creating an incremental opportunity to the market.

The fruits and vegetables segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The fruits and vegetables segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period, due to increasing consciousness about healthy diet. People are focusing more on fresh fruits and vegetables which has led to an increase in demand for their packaging so that they don’t get damaged quickly. Clamshells are the perfect alternative for the packaging of fruits and vegetables which offers convenient packaging.

Region with highest share:

North America is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to rise in awareness about healthy and hygienic food and increase in consumption of ready-to-eat food items. This region innovated the molded pulp containers for better results in the market. The augmented sales of food clamshells in this region propelled at a rapid pace.

Region with highest CAGR:

Asia Pacific is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to rise in adoption of rigid containers for food packaging. Increase in import of fruits and availability of abundant raw material in this region is also estimated to offer lucrative revenue opportunities for manufacturers in the region.
