How Vision 2030 is Transforming Egypt Paper Packaging Industry

Egypt's Vision 2030 is fundamentally reshaping the paper packaging industry by embedding sustainability at its core, transitioning from plastic-dependent practices to a circular economy that aligns with United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and the Africa Agenda 2063. Through ambitious targets like reducing single-use plastic bags to 100 per capita by 2025 and just 50 by 2030, the strategy enforces restrictions on plastic use while incentivizing eco-friendly alternatives like recyclable paper-based materials, fostering innovation in sectors such as food and beverages where paper cartons now dominate over 42% of packaging needs.

Egypt Paper Packaging Market Trends & Drivers:

The paper packaging industry in Egypt is on a high growth pace due to the fast industrialization and growth of middle class in the country. The new industrial deal between Egypt, UAE and Jordan has opened significant opportunities where the Abu Dhabi ADQ fund has invested 10 billion in projects around the region. This is boosting the economy leading to consumer spending and generating larger demand of packed goods through the retail and e-commerce medium. The increasing levels of living standards are causing a rise in the use of paper packaging by supermarkets and the online shopping platform in delivering products. The created policies by the government in favour of local manufacturing and export are compelling businesses to turn to efficient and cost-effective packaging solutions. Paper packaging is taking the center stage as it is a practical one, environmentally friendly, and it also assists business organizations to comply with international standards in terms of quality.

The change of environment is transforming the Egyptian packaging environment in a massive manner. Governments and tourists are shifting to sustainable activities in order to minimize environmental impact. The first of its kind in Egypt is the innovative program by SIG Recycle for Good, which was initiated with Tagaddod. A mobile app allows the consumer to make orders to have pickups of used aseptic carton packs at their homes and even earn rewards in the process. The project has been promoting recycling and preserving useful resources in the market and benefiting the local communities. The ban on single-use plastics by governments is rapidly shifting to the use of paper-based forms. Food and beverage and cosmetic industries, as well as electronics industries, are moving towards the use of paper packaging due to the fact that it is biodegradable and that it can be recycled. This consciousness towards the environment is creating innovation and investments, which are pushing the market.

The development of e-commerce is generating demand that is simply blowing out the paper packaging solutions in Egypt. The retail business carried online is soaring, and corrugated boxing materials are critical in securing the products during delivery. Online shopping is convenient and the logistics infrastructure is much better than ever meaning that more packages are being delivered than ever before. Paper packaging will also provide the necessary durability to ensure safe delivery and remain light enough to make shipping affordable. The delivery of food has been on the increase throughout the Egyptian cities and depends on the use of paper bags and cartons made of food-grade paperboard. This is especially being felt in Greater Cairo and Alexandria where the urban population is adopting digital commerce. The resultant growth in the use of the internet coupled by emerging shopping trends is providing a long-term thrust to paper packaging manufacturers.
