Key Highlights Beverage packaging offers tamper resistance and protection and meets beverages’ physical, chemical, or biological needs. Additionally, beverage packaging encourages nutrition and guarantees rapid and reliable distribution across the value chain. The size of beverage packaging has been a polarizing trend for a decade owing to various factors, including growing health concerns. Excessive consumption of consumables such as aerated drinks creates an imbalance of sugar in the bloodstream. It damages the ability of the liver to process sugar intake, leading to the risk of Type 2 diabetes. As a result, beverage manufacturers are under increased pressure to reduce the size of their packaging to give consumers more options and permit them to have greater control over how much they consume. In addition, various manufacturers have pledged to reduce the calorie content, driving the need for smaller packaging. The dynamic lifestyles and the consequent dependence of consumers on packaged beverages are also augmenting the sales of beverage packaging products such as plastic and paper bottles and containers. This trend bolsters the sales of plastic products, owing to their superior barrier properties, convenient format, high-quality printability, and prudent usage of material resources. The rise in packaging costs is the pandemic’s surge in demand. Since consumers were stranded at home, the shift to online purchasing intensified. As a result, practically all online firms now have a significant requirement for e-commerce packaging for shipping orders. The fundamental economics of supply and demand and the problems faced by beverage packaging market players resulted in inescapable rises in raw materials and completed packaging. As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, consumer behavior has changed substantially. Buyers are more concerned than ever before about products’ hygiene and sustainability. The shoppers’ evolving needs and a consumer-focused approach will remain crucial as this crisis continues. Consumer behavior will undoubtedly continue to change during the forecast period as the market simultaneously acclimates more to the current scenario. Thus, the post-COVID-19 method for beverage packaging looks promising in terms of demand.

Packaging water is a complex technical area of ??the industry. The packaged and bottled water packaging industries are experiencing rapid growth as public awareness of the need for pure drinking water increases. Bottled water is considered one of the most consumed beverages due to its convenience. The bottle packaging is also suitable for long-distance transportation of water. Boiling water at home is time-consuming and energy inefficient. This is anticipated to contribute significantly to the growth of the bottled water packaging market.

The use of glass bottles for water packaging is widespread. However, the hot-fill/hold/cool process had to be applied with care to avoid the breakage of the containers. With rising environmental concerns about plastic wastage, various hospitality businesses, such as hotels, are using glass water bottles. For instance, in December 2022, recognizing the increasing rate of plastic waste worldwide, Boone, a global water technology startup enabled by the Internet of Things (IoT), partnered with Mumbai’s Grand Hyatt to eliminate plastic bottles. A sustainable glass water bottle replaced them with a negligible carbon footprint. Boone’s unique Zero Mile Water system, which uses IoT and AI to monitor the quality of every drop of water, allows hotels to reduce their reliance on external systems significantly. Such initiatives would further leverage the market for glass water bottles. Owing to the significant increase in the number of players and increasing focus on attractive packaging. Major players’ increased spending on advertising and marketing activities to reach many consumers and generate profits is anticipated to complement the market’s growth over the forecast period. Moreover, manufacturers are innovating bottled water, such as water infused with water from unscathed glaciers. This will likely attract new consumers to experience the feel of water to keep up with their hydration, thus driving the bottled water packaging market.
