세계의 친환경 식품 포장 시장 예측 : 제품 유형별, 재료별, 용도별, 지역별 분석(-2030년)

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Eco-Friendly Food Packaging Market is accounted for $292.71 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $524.45 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 8.6% during the forecast period. Eco-friendly food packaging refers to materials and practices that minimize environmental impact throughout a product's lifecycle. They also emphasize non-toxic components to prevent harm to ecosystems and human health. It promotes sustainable sourcing, manufacturing, and end-of-life management, encouraging a circular economy where materials are reused or composted rather than ending up in landfills or oceans.

According to a survey by the Ocean Conservancy, 8 million metric tonnes of plastic enter the ocean annually, adding to the estimated 150 million metric tonnes that are already churning around in the world's oceans.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Growing concerns about environmental degradation

Growing concerns about environmental degradation are driving consumers and businesses alike to seek sustainable alternatives, particularly in the food packaging industry. Consumers are increasingly demanding packaging solutions that minimize waste, use renewable resources, and are biodegradable or recyclable. This trend has led to innovation in materials and designs, creating opportunities for companies offering eco-friendly packaging solutions to meet the rising demand while aligning with environmental values. This surge in eco-consciousness has propelled the growth of the eco-friendly food packaging market.

Restraint:

Supply chain complexities

Supply chain complexities in eco-friendly food packaging stem from sourcing sustainable materials, production challenges, and distribution logistics. Production processes may also be more intricate, requiring adjustments to machinery and techniques. Additionally, eco-friendly packaging materials can be bulkier or less durable, impacting storage and transportation logistics. These complexities increase costs and lead to longer lead times, potentially hampering market growth.

Opportunity:

Increasing consumer demand for sustainable products

As environmental consciousness rises, consumers are actively seeking packaging solutions that minimize harm to the planet. This demand is driving companies to innovate and develop eco-friendly packaging options that utilize renewable materials, reduce waste, and are easily recyclable or biodegradable. Businesses are recognizing the importance of aligning with these consumer values, leading to expanded offerings of eco-friendly packaging solutions. As a result, the market for sustainable food packaging continues to expand rapidly.

Threat:

Performance concerns

Performance concerns in eco-friendly food packaging primarily revolve around durability, functionality, and preservation capabilities. Eco-friendly materials might not always match the performance standards of traditional packaging in terms of strength, flexibility, or barrier properties, potentially compromising the protection and shelf life of food products. This can lead to concerns regarding product integrity and customer satisfaction. Such concerns can hinder market growth as businesses hesitate to invest in alternatives that may not meet their functional requirements.

Covid-19 Impact

The covid-19 pandemic has both positively and negatively impacted the eco-friendly food packaging market. On one hand, increased awareness of hygiene and health safety has led to a surge in demand for single-use packaging, potentially slowing the adoption of reusable and eco-friendly options. Conversely, heightened environmental concerns and regulatory focus on sustainability have reinforced the importance of eco-friendly packaging, driving innovation and investment in this sector.

The resealable packaging segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The resealable packaging segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth. Resealable packaging provides convenience and sustainability by allowing products to be securely opened and closed multiple times. It extends the shelf life of perishable goods, reduces food waste, and enhances product freshness. Commonly used in food, pharmaceutical, and consumer goods industries, resealable packaging features zippers, adhesive strips, or snap closures. Its growing popularity reflects increasing consumer demand for functionality, hygiene, and environmentally friendly packaging solutions.

The fresh produce packaging segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The fresh produce packaging segment is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR growth during the forecast period. Eco-friendly food packaging for fresh produce prioritizes sustainability while maintaining product freshness. Made from biodegradable or recyclable materials like paper, cardboard, and bioplastics, these packages reduce environmental impact. They often feature breathable designs to extend the shelf life of fruits and vegetables. With a growing consumer preference for sustainable options, eco-friendly packaging supports environmental conservation and aligns with the demand for greener, healthier food packaging solutions.

Region with largest share:

Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period. Rising environmental awareness, stringent regulations on plastic usage and increasing consumer demand for sustainable products are driving the adoption of eco-friendly packaging solutions. Moreover, the region's booming food and beverage industry, coupled with growing urbanization and disposable income, further fuels the demand. Asia-Pacific presents immense opportunities for companies investing in sustainable packaging solutions to meet evolving consumer preferences and regulatory requirements.

Region with highest CAGR:

Europe is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to the region's stringent regulations. This trend is reshaping the packaging industry landscape in Europe, with sustainable practices becoming increasingly integral to business strategies. Government policies in Europe are highly promoting recycling and sustainable practices. As a result, the market is poised for continued expansion, with opportunities for growth in various segments of eco-friendly food packaging.
