EDITORIAL

Bevy of beverages…

T

he recent years have witnessed a flurry of beverages (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic) in the Indian retail space, replete with a medley of domestic as well as international brands and available sizes. Parallelly, this has led to sweeping developments in beverage processing and packaging solutions. Amid this fast evolving scenario, it is important to mention here certain consumption trends and changing consumer preferences that are driving beverage packaging towards tomorrow. In particular, the consumers’ penchant for international quality has made many industry players to focus on value-added products complete with aesthetic packaging. Besides, there is a growing thrust on experimenting with new-age materials and enhanced eco-friendliness in terms of beverage packaging designs. Although glass has traditionally been preferred for alcohol and soft drinks packaging, of late, plastics is eating into the former’s marketshare owing to its advantages vis-à-vis the emerging shift towards single-serve portions coupled with visual appeal and portability. As health and hygiene continue to be of critical significance for beverage processing and packaging, amid growing globalisation, rising energy costs and tighter regulatory norms towards sustainable packaging, alternative beverage packaging concepts are the need of the hour. To meet the challenges of new performance and system integration requirements, the industry has to go beyond the development of aseptic packs, pouches & Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) bottles, packaging sterilisation technology, among others. With the race between glass and PET intensifying to seize the top slot in beverage packaging, further reduction in weight and energy cost holds a higher possibility in deciding the winner, while the environmental attributes will be a given. Turn to ‘Sector Watch’ for further interesting insights into beverage packaging.

On a related note, the caps and closures segment constitutes an integral part of packaging and in most cases reflects on the specialised packaging requirements by virtue of innovative shapes and sizes. In a similar industry trend, plastic containers and lids, due to their user-friendliness, seem to be gaining mindshare among consumers over metal caps & closures in products such as beverages and semi-liquid products. However, these have to conquer certain environmental concerns before taking the victory lap. ‘Market Trends’ offers some contemporary perspectives on the caps and closures segment. Read on…
