Eco-Friendly Sustainable Materials to Intensify Asia Fiber Based Packaging Industry: Ken Research

•

According to the study “Asia Fiber Based Packaging Industry Situation and Prospects Research report�, the fiber based packaging industry is segmented into various types such as corrugated boxes, cartons, partitions, inserts, bottles carriers, cup carriers, trays, plates, clamshells, display packaging, bags, sacks and others. The materials used in the manufacture of fiber based packagings are corrugated, boxboard/carton board, moulded pulp, and kraft paper. Various end-users of fiber based packagings are food packaging, beverages packaging, tobacco packaging, healthcare packaging, personal care & cosmetics, homecare & toiletries, electrical & electronics, other industrial packaging, e-commerce packaging, chemical and fertilizers. Corrugated boxes are used for various packaging needs and are mainly used in transit packaging across several industry sectors. Asian fiber based packaging market is segmented into virgin and recycled by material source. Recycled fiber segment is likely to dominate the Asian markets accounting for a major share. Within the fiber based packaging market, cartons hold significant share in the market as they are widely preferred for primary packaging in food and beverages, cosmetics and personal care, pharmaceuticals, etc.

• Evolution is a continuing process within the packaging industry. Packaging serves multiple functions such as physical protection, product marketing, tamper evidence, theft protection, durability, and portion control. From the past few years sustainability was made essential in packaging solutions driving for more growth in the Asian markets. Environmental impact of nonrecyclable materials has led to a demand for eco-friendly packagings adhering to the environmental protection guidelines.

Fiber based packaging utilizes renewable, reusable or biodegradable materials in the process of product packaging.

Millennials prefer packaging to be sustainable due to awareness of environmental degradation. Fiber based packaging is attractive and consumers are willing to invest and pay more for the same.
