The dynamics of the Active and Intelligent Packaging market reflect a changing landscape in the packaging industry as technology advances and demand for innovative solutions increases. Accordingly, active packaging involves introducing substances or materials that can interact with packaged products such as extending shelf life or promoting safety. Conversely, intelligent packaging incorporates sensors, indicators or other technologies that provide real-time feedback about a package’s condition.
Another key driver of market dynamics within this sector is increasing consumer awareness regarding food safety coupled with sustainability. This is driven by the growing awareness of people regarding the impact of packaging on the environment as well as fresh and safe products. This consumer expectation which can be fulfilled by active & intelligent packaging that monitors product quality.
Technological changes shape market dynamics. The use of smart sensors and IoT (internet of things) technologies has transformed packaging into more than a mere container. This means that active packaging with sensors can adjust to changing environmental conditions such as temperature or humidity, thus ensuring optimal storage conditions for packaged goods. The ability to monitor in real-time ensures product safety and quality while addressing challenges brought about by global supply chains.
Further, there is an increase in demand for intelligent packaging solutions as e-commerce takes root. For instance, during transit over long distances or when held under different environments, this form of packing allows tracking and monitoring their status within supply chain. Its helps to identify problems early enough thereby ensuring that the integrity of products is maintained throughout distribution phase resulting in minimal waste.
