Packaging Machinery Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Machine Type (Palletizing, Wrapping, Labeling and Other Machine Types), Technology (Modified Atmosphere Packaging, Vacuum Packaging and General Packaging), End User and By Geography
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Packaging Machinery Market is accounted for $47.19 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $65.44 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 5.6% during the forecast period. Packaging machinery is a device used for packing various items and components. It is important in facilitating the packaging of small sachets to large cartons, as well as providing temper resistance and maintaining the safety of the items. Different types of packaging machines are used to sort, count, and accumulate various items. Packaging machines have become increasingly advanced as technology has improved, and now incorporate a variety of process processes such as fabrication, filling, sealing, cleaning, combining, labelling, palletizing, and wrapping.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, foodborne diseases account for an estimated 76 million cases, 350,000 hospitalizations, and 5,000 deaths in the U.S. every year.
Market Dynamics:Driver:Demand for packaging in the logistics & transportation and supply-chain industry
Packaging is required by many logistics and transportation organisations to wrap and bundle their goods and commodities. As a result, continued growth in the logistics and transportation industry is likely to drive demand for packing machines, boosting market growth in the near future. It is related to the growing necessity for the safe transit of goods and products from one location to another. Furthermore, the E-commerce industry has grown tremendously in recent years, which is impacting the growth of the packaging machine market.
Restraint:High production and import cost
Leading market companies are emphasising integrated packaging machines with wrapping, automated labelling, or palletizing machines, making it more efficient by lowering operating time. It does, however, raise the overall cost of production. Small and medium-sized businesses find it difficult to purchase these devices, which has a detrimental impact on the export company. Furthermore, developing countries such as India and Argentina face difficulties in importing machinery due to customs duties, hampered the global market.
Opportunity:Lean packaging operation with the implementation of Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) technique
The necessity for integrating packaging machines and upstream manufacturing processes has resulted in the development of industry automation techniques. By applying the OEE technique, lean packaging operations can regulate the packaging process. Because of increased demand for packaged foods, continuous manufacture of medications and treatments, and greater spending on branded products, lean packaging operations are becoming increasingly popular. This, in turn, boosts the production process.
Threat:Maintaining sterility in fill-finish manufacturing operations
Aseptic fill-finish operations are riskier than non-sterile processes. To execute the procedure correctly, they require careful planning, trained employees, and specialised facilities and equipment. Sterility is critical since any failure can result in significant financial losses and life-threatening impacts on patients. Sterile lyophilizing necessitates the purchase of specialised equipment and facilities. When lyophilizing items, strict precautions must be taken to reduce the danger of contamination during the loading and unloading operations.
Covid-19 Impact
The COVID-19 epidemic has had a detrimental impact on manufacturing enterprises all around the world; nevertheless, the packaging industry has had little exposure to the pandemic. Most packaging companies are completely operational with increased capacity, while others are still thinking to increase production. Key manufacturers, on the other hand, are putting plans in place to standardise machines using new processes in order to improve market sales. Furthermore, production processes in the majority of affected countries, including China, Northern Italy, Germany, and the United States, are fully operational. As a result, it is anticipated that the COVID-19 epidemic will aid in the growth of the global market.
The labeling segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The labeling segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth. Labelling is one of the most important procedures in both primary and secondary packaging of items. The increasing requirement for labelling items with crucial and relevant information is becoming a major factor in the packaging sector. Labels are used to brand, adorn, or give buyers with useful information about a product or brand. The industry offers a wide variety of automatic labelling devices, from high-production equipment that enable total automation of the print-and-apply process to basic label dispensing. New labelling standards and regulations are projected to enhance demand for these equipment.
The general packaging segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The general packaging segment is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR growth during the forecast period. General packaging packages and labels products in bulk and transforms them into finished products. General packaging machines use higher-than-usual sealing pressures and are used to package potable water, juices, industrial grease, soaps, lotions, stews, soups, freezing gels, and other items. General packaging machines form, fill, seal, wrap, clean, and package at various levels of automation. Packaging machines also include sorting, counting, and accumulating technology.
Region with highest share:
Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to the huge investments in the manufacturing sector from the developing countries. India and China are investing in the manufacturing industry in order to attract domestic and international consumers. Rapid population expansion and increased consumer spending power are expected to drive demand for packaged goods, facilitating regional market growth. The establishment of manufacturing facilities by major regional players is projected to boost the e-commerce business, hence promoting the regional market.
Region with highest CAGR:North America is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period because of the well-established food and beverage industries in the United States and Canada. In US the presence of various multinational food processing and manufacturing companies results in an increased demand for packaging machinery. Furthermore, the packaging machinery sector is likely to be driven by the need for well-packaged food and increased awareness about the ingredients. One of the major aspects fuelling the region's growth is technological advancement in packaging machinery.
