According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “GCC Flexible Packaging Market: Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2019-2024”, the GCC flexible packaging market reached a value of US$ 1.6 Billion in 2018. Flexible packaging consists of easy molding packages that have no rigid structure. These packaging solutions have aroma retention and barrier properties and come in re-sealable packs which make them suitable for packing moisture-sensitive products. This type of packaging may include bags, pouches, plastics, films, foils and liners or a combination of these materials. At present, one of the key factors driving the GCC flexible packaging market is the extensive utilization of these packaging solutions in the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector which is witnessing rapid expansion in the region.

Market Trends:

The processed and packaged food industry in the GCC region is currently experiencing rapid growth owing to the rising population, high income levels and shifting dietary patterns. Cost-effectiveness and longer shelf-life of food products are two of the key benefits offered by flexible packaging that are driving the market growth. Flexible packaging also provides other benefits such as light-weight, ease of opening, carrying, storing and resealing, and various customization options which add to the products’ aesthetic appeal. Besides, it requires less energy for production which results in significantly lesser carbon emissions as compared to rigid packaging, thus making it a sustainable option of packaging goods. Moreover, rapid urbanization, sedentary lifestyles and regular consumption of fast food in the GCC region have led to a significant increase in the number of cases of chronic diseases, such as obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. This is boosting the overall sales of pharmaceutical products which, in turn, is strengthening the demand for flexible packaging in this sector. On account of the aforementioned factors, the GCC flexible packaging market size is anticipated to reach US$ 2.5 Billion by 2024, growing at a CAGR of around 8% during 2019-2024.
