What Are the Key Growth Drivers Fueling the Paperboard Packaging Market Expansion?
The growth of the paperboard packaging industry is anticipated to be fueled by increasing consumption of packaged food. The term "packaged food" denotes food enclosed in either porous or non-porous wrapping to eliminate direct exposure to the atmosphere; paperboard packaging is commonly used for this purpose owing to it not being detrimental to the food contained within. Items such as frozen foods, dry meals, and dairy products are often held in paperboard folding cartons. For instance, a Zawya report from September 2022, a media portal based in UAE, foresaw a rise in demand for packaged food, predicting a 21% hike, with a total of 44 million tons by 2026. The intake of packaged food is slated to see a remarkable upswing in certain areas, with a forecasted increase of 28% in Iraq, 22% in Saudi Arabia, and 19% in the United Arab Emirates. Consequently, the burgeoning consumption of packaged food is contributing significantly to the expansion of the paperboard packaging industry.
