Metallized Flexible Packaging Market

Global Metallized Flexible Packaging Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report, By Material Type (Aluminum, Chromium, and Nickel), By Packaging Type (Pouches, Bags, Roll Stock, and Wraps), By End-User (Food and Beverage, Pharmaceuticals, Personal Care, and Others), Forecast (2022-2028)
    Update Available - Forecast 2024-2030   

Published: Jul 2023 | Report Code: OMR2026785 | Category : Packaging | Delivery Format: /

The global metallized flexible packaging market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR of 4.5% during the forecast period.  The food and beverage industry is shifting from the traditional concept of packaging to lightweight packaging, easy-to-carry, and paper packaging. Metalized flexible packaging supports to increase the perishable food products' life cycle and reduced the use of preservatives. Metalized flexible packaging is widely used among several end-user verticals such as pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, and cosmetics, to increase the shelf life of products. Moreover, advancements and innovations in the packaging sector further aid in market growth. In June 2022, BOBST along with Michelman and UPM Specialty Papers developed one barrier FiberCycle, a responsibly sourced and recyclable Kraft paper especially well-suited for packaging. The coating system was developed by Michelman. The coating is applied over the metallization layer to protect the metal and ensure a tight seal on the package. 

Segmental Outlook 

The global metallized flexible packaging market is segmented based on material type, packaging type, and end user. Based on material type, the market is segmented into aluminum, chromium, and nickel. Based on packaging type, the market is segmented into pouches, bags, roll stock, and wraps. Based on material type, the chromium segment is expected to achieve significant growth in the coming year. Chromium is a significant metal generally used in various industries owing to its excellent strength and corrosion resistance. The segment is being aided by the steady growth in the construction and infrastructure industry, which is further boosting the demand for chromium. Based on end-user, the market is segmented into food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, personal care, and others (agriculture). 

Pouch Segment Shows a Considerable Growth in the Market During the Forecast Period 

The pouch segment is expected to attain significant growth during the forecast period. The factors such as aesthetic appeal and rise in the demand from various end-user industries such as pharmaceutical, automotive and food and beverages are the major driving factors that further drive the growth of the pouches segment. Furthermore, protection from the risk of contamination and the attractive packaging of pouches has also led to an increase in the popularity of pouch packaging. In April 2021 ProAmpac announced the launch of ProActive PCR Retort pouches. ProActive PCR Retort pouches are designed for pet and human food packaging. ProActive PCR Retort pouches reduce the use of virgin resins and include a high amount of PCR and delivered packaging performance and line efficiency. 

Regional Outlook

The global metallized flexible packaging market is further segmented based on geography including North America (US and Canada), Europe (UK, Spain, Italy, Germany, France, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa and Latin America). Asia-Pacific is expected to grow with the fastest CAGR in the global metalized flexible packaging market, owing to the rising fluctuations in climatic conditions that affect the quality of food and pharmaceutical products.  The use of metalized flexible packaging in food packaging assists in increasing the shelf life in different climatic conditions. With the rising concern of changing climatic conditions, the demand for metalized flexible packaging market is expected to grow significantly during the forecast period. North America metallized flexible packaging market is driven by the increase in the demand for ready-to-eat and packaged food. European metallized flexible packaging market is driven by the rising demand for ready to eat food and increased awareness about the benefits of packaged organic cosmetics, which leads to an increase in the demand for metallized flexible packaging in the European region.
