Key Growth Drivers

Growing demand for eco-friendly and sustainable pharmaceutical packaging products and the rising prevalence of chronic diseases increasing the demand for pharma products drive market growth.
The increasing concern related to the harmful impact of packaging on the environment among consumers and manufacturers is surging the demand for eco-friendly and sustainable packaging in the pharmaceutical industry. The growing demand for sustainable packaging is likely to create immense opportunities for the growth of the pharmaceutical packaging market in the forthcoming years.
In April 2022, Amcor plc launched a new sustainable packaging named High Shield laminated, which provides a high barrier and performance to pharmaceutical products. The new product is a recycle-ready and low carbon packaging option that comprises stick pack, sachet, and strip pack packaging and is available in two options, paper-based, and polyolefin-based materials.
The rising prevalence of various diseases including cardiovascular diseases, digestive disorders, infectious diseases, and others increased the demand for pharmaceutical products and their packaging, which is expected to aid the growth of the global pharmaceutical packaging market.
According to World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 17.9 million people die each year due to cardiovascular diseases including rheumatic heart disease, coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, and other conditions.
Shortage of raw materials and counterfeit pharmaceutical products hindering the market growth
The availability of counterfeit pharmaceutical products along with the shortage of raw materials to manufacture pharmaceutical packaging products is the most significant barrier to the growth of the pharmaceutical packaging industry globally. The shortage of basic materials such as paper, plastic, glass, and other raw material has upended the manufacturing process including pharmaceutical packaging. Paper Mills failed to fulfill the demand for paper packaging products due to the shortage of wood pulp.
According to the USA Bureau of Labor Statistics, the cost of pulp and paper increased by over 25% between 2020 and 2021, making it more expensive to procure paper as a raw material for the packaging industry.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the disrupted supply chain affected the production capacity and supply of pharmaceutical packaging material. In April 2020, the COVID-19 lockdown affected the pharma sector including pharmaceutical packaging due to the shortage of raw material, workforce, and restrictions on transport. To curb the situation, the governmental bodies imposed several regulations on industries, resulting in supply chain disruption.
