MarketsandMarkets has released 360 Quadrant for Top 11 Flexible Plastic Packaging Companies, Worldwide 2024 to help businesses make quicker and more informed decisions. Companies' market presence and product footprint are used to build quadrants, which will be revised annually.

The global flexible plastic packaging market was valued at USD 182.4 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 264.9 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 4.8% from 2022 to 2030. The flexible plastic packaging market is poised for substantial growth in the upcoming years, primarily driven by the surging demand for packaged food and beverages, the flourishing e-commerce sector, and advancements in packaging technology. The market is witnessing a boost from the escalating need for lightweight, convenient, and cost-effective packaging solutions across pharmaceutical, personal care, and food & beverage applications. The rise in online orders for daily staples and fresh food is further fueling the demand for flexible plastic packaging.

Key factors propelling the market include the drive to reduce packaging material usage, cost-effectiveness leading to increased shelf life, heightened demand from various end-use sectors, and the upward trajectory of e-commerce sales. However, barriers such as stringent government regulations and inadequate recycling infrastructure pose challenges to market growth. Environmental concerns associated with plastic packaging and the tightening regulations on single-use plastics also present significant hurdles for the industry. To address these challenges, many companies are actively working on developing sustainable and eco-friendly solutions in the field of flexible plastic packaging. Initiatives include the creation of biodegradable and compostable materials, as well as a growing trend towards incorporating recycled materials into the production process. This strategic focus reflects the industry's commitment to navigating the evolving landscape and meeting the demands for more environmentally responsible packaging solutions.
