Packaging materials are widely used for protecting, preserving, transporting, and distributing products safely. Paper-based packaging materials are most widely used across most industries due to their recyclable nature and low-cost manufacturing, while rigid packaging materials (which include glass and plastics) are steadily gaining traction in the industry. Packaging consumers generate a high demand for sustainable, low cost, direct food-contact safe and compact packaging materials, creating a need for constant innovation in the packaging materials market to meet the evolving trends.
