Consumer needs and demands influenced by changing global trends, such as increased life expectancy accelerates the increased quest for innovation and upgradations in the food and beverage packaging industry.
Further, food protection and enhancing the shelf life of the food product are the attributes offered by the packaging.

Moreover, innovations in the packaging industry and materials used for packaging are also likely to further enhance the demand for food packaging in the near future. Thus, such benefits along with the rapidly rising demand are driving the growth of the market over the forecast period.
