Pharmaceutical Packaging Market

Pharmaceutical Packaging Market (Product: Plastic Bottles, Parenteral Containers, Blister Packaging, Other Primary Packaging, Closures, Labels, and Others) - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2021-2031

Pharmaceutical Packaging Market Outlook 2031

  • The global market was valued at US$ 81.5 Bn in 2020
  • It is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 5.6% from 2021 to 2031
  • The global pharmaceutical packaging industry is expected to reach the value of US$ 148.4 Bn by the end of 2031

Analysts’ Viewpoint on Market Scenario

Companies in the pharmaceutical packaging business are maximizing their gains by focusing on positive to limited negative-impact applications during the ongoing coronavirus period. Sustainable materials in packaging options has become an important new driver in consumer purchasing decisions. Since developed countries have robust set-up of regulatory authorities for ease of business, developing and underdeveloped nations are being ignored in the global movement of the pharmaceutical transformation. Hence, healthcare companies in the pharmaceutical packaging market should work closely with governments and regulatory bodies in developing & underdeveloped nations to scale new income avenues. Development of anti-counterfeiting drug packaging technologies & products and expansion of the drug counterfeit market are necessary in developing and underdeveloped countries.

Asia Pacific and North America Grab the Attention of Pharmaceutical Packaging Companies

Mature markets such as North America dictated the pharmaceutical packaging market and accounted for the largest share in 2020. The dominance of the North American region in the market is primarily due to the large demand for pharmaceutical packaging in the U.S. and Canada. However, Asia Pacific is expected to exhibit astonishing growth during the forecast period due to the expansion of the medical industry, increased contract manufacturing activities, and the aging population. Asia Pacific is predicted to account for the second-largest revenue share of the market during the forecast period.

Material Innovations and Equipment Set-ups Creating Long-term Opportunities Post Coronavirus

The unprecedented demand for pharmaceutical packaging has been observed during the ongoing coronavirus period. Manufacturers have been working at breakneck speeds to ensure robust supply at hospitals, pharmacies, and related healthcare facilities to improve patient outcomes amid challenging times.

Since the healthcare industry has come under increased emphasis due to the pandemic, deep-pocketed companies are keen on investments for material innovations, equipment set-up, and new applications such as child-resistant packaging to diversify their income sources. The possibility of potential infectious outbreaks in the future is fueling R&D activities for pharmaceutical packaging innovations. Healthcare companies are taking data-driven decisions before making inroads into new regions.

Implementation of Regulatory Standards Helps Address Menace of Counterfeit Pharmaceutical Products

The lack of availability of raw materials and volatility in raw material prices are expected to hamper the expansion of the market. Moreover, the complicated registration procedure of pharmaceutical packaging is expected to be a key challenge for participants in the market.

Nevertheless, the development of anti-counterfeiting drug packaging technologies & products and the expansion of the global drug counterfeit market are anticipated to boost the demand for pharmaceutical packaging throughout the assessment period. Furthermore, the introduction and implementation of numerous stringent regulations & standards for pharmaceutical packaging by regulatory bodies such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Healthcare Compliance Packaging Council (HCPC), and National Quality Forum (NQF) are anticipated to pump revenue into the market during the forecast period.

Nano-enabled Packaging Generates Monetary Benefits for Stakeholders

Pharmaceutical packaging facilitates the prevention of microbial growth or contamination, the safety of products, and the extended shelf life of products. Stakeholders in the global market for pharmaceutical packaging are likely to reap generous monetary benefits with technological advancements such as nano-enabled packaging. This packaging method offers a better shield against mechanical forces, light, and moisture. The pharmaceutical packaging market in North America is estimated to hold the largest revenue share during the forecast period. This demand is being fueled by the ever-expanding pharmaceutical markets in the U.S. and Canada.

Asia Pacific is likely to hold an important revenue share for sustaining growth in the global market. Some of the noteworthy factors contributing to this expansion are the ever-increasing geriatric population in the region, the growth of the pharmaceutical industry in Asia Pacific, and expansion of the contract manufacturing.

China Holds Lucrative Growth Opportunities with Ever-expanding Pharmaceutical Landscape

The surge in demand for pharmaceutical packaging from Asia Pacific on account of increased contract manufacturing, an aging population, and a comprehensive portfolio of pharmaceutical products is expected to open up new opportunities for market stakeholders. Moreover, a shift toward nano-enabled packaging to enhance barrier properties against light, moisture, and mechanical forces is projected to generate opportunities for the market over the next few years.

China is a key country in the pharmaceutical packaging business in the Asia Pacific. It held a significant share of the market in Asia Pacific in 2020. The region is estimated to maintain its dominant position in the region during the forecast period.

Pharmaceutical Packaging Industry: Overview
