    Market Segment Insights

    Sustainable Packaging Process Insights

    The Asia Pacific Sustainable Packaging market segmentation, based on process includes Reusable Packaging, Degradable Packaging, and Recycled Packaging. The recycled packaging category led the market in 2022. Reducing packing weight and size and using more recyclable and renewable materials are the two most common sustainable packaging solutions used by companies. Consequently, the corporation is using more cardboard and paper in its operations. It also ensures that, for future usage, the packaging is recyclable and environmentally benign.

    Sustainable Packaging Material Type Insights

    The Asia Pacific Sustainable Packaging market segmentation, based on material type, includes Glass, Plastic, Metal, and Paper. The paper category generated the most income. Paper-based packaging is easily recyclable, and most paper products can be recycled multiple times. This is in line with the circular economy's and waste reduction initiatives.  Paper is an attractive material for companies looking to reduce the environmental impact of their packaging because it decomposes spontaneously and is intrinsically biodegradable.

    Sustainable Packaging End user Insights

    The Asia Pacific Sustainable Packaging market segmentation, based on end user, Pharmaceutical and Healthcare, Cosmetics and Personal Care, Food and Beverage, and Other End Users. The food and beverage category generated the most income because recycled plastic is becoming more and more popular since it is inexpensive and good for the environment. Furthermore, it is projected that the personal care and cosmetics sector would increase significantly in the near future. This is because customers are becoming more ecologically conscious, which drives up demand for sustainable packaging, and the government is promoting eco-friendly packaging.

    Sustainable Packaging Country Insights

    Asia Pacific is anticipated to experience the quickest growth in the sustainable packaging market over the course of the forecast period. The two most profitable markets in Asia Pacific for eco-friendly packaging options are China and India. The market is predicted to increase because of these countries' growing environmental concerns and potential customer base. The market is also growing due to the increasing presence of recycling facilities in the area that are developing cutting-edge products.

    Furthermore, the market's expansion in Asia Pacific is believed to be significantly fueled by the swift adoption of pro-environment laws in Asian nations and growing government backing for the use of sustainable packaging across a range of industries. Additionally, the Indian government outlawed single-use plastic in July 2022, seeing it as a necessary measure to reduce pollution brought on by improper disposal of plastic garbage. Businesses are expected to move toward sustainable packaging options as a result of this move by the Indian government.

    India is the most appealing market for sustainable packaging in Asia Pacific as a result of the growing food chain industry's adoption of sustainable packaging solutions to meet growing environmental concerns. In February 2023, Sealed Air bought Liquibox— a company that offers ecologically sustainable bag-in-box packaging solutions for many industries. Crown Holdings purchased Helvetia Packaging in Saarlouis, Germany, in 2023. Procter & Gamble Fabric and Home Care partnered with Paboco in November 2022 to run a test on its Lenor liquid fabric conditioner brand 'first-generation' paper-based bottles in the Netherlands.

    Therefore, the rise of investment in earth-friendly packs is expected to boost the market's worth over the forecast period.
