There are two different packaging used to pack the confectioneries which includes rigid packaging and flexible packaging. Flexible packaging is one of the fastest growing segments of the packaging industry and it integrates the best qualities of plastic, film, paper and aluminum foil to offer an extensive range of protective properties. It essentially takes the shape of a bag, pouch, liner, or overwrap, or any part of a package whose shape can be readily changed. Such packaging are used for consumer products and in industrial applications, to protect, market, and distribute a variety of products. According to a recent study report published by the Market Research Future, The global market of Confectionery Packaging is booming and expected to gain prominence over the forecast period. The market is forecasted to demonstrate a stunning growth by 2021, surpassing its previous confectionery packaging market growth records in terms of value with a striking CAGR during the estimated period (2017 – 2021).
Confectionery packaging has wide applications in the F&B industry, mainly due to its features such as ease of handling, reduced production & shipment costs, and eco-friendliness. Rise in demand for packaged foods & beverages including ready-to-eat meals, frozen meals, and snack foods. Increase in consumer income in countries such as China, India, and Brazil, has led to a growth in demand for good-quality packaged food. Also, the rise in population in many countries, has led to an increase in food & beverage consumption, which ultimately increases the demand of confectionery packaging products.
Technological advancements in packaging plays a vital role in driving the growth of confectionery packaging market. Advanced technology in packaging has allowed companies for innovation in products instead of sticking to traditional methods of packaging. Due to this, many companies are investing in R&D and are coming up with advanced flexible packaging products with barrier resistance properties that offer resistance against heat and moisture and eliminates oxidation of foods. Such properties prove effective in maintaining the quality and consistency of food products while extending their shelf life without the use preservatives. Recent advancements in materials and production processes have reduced the weight of some confectionery packages up to 50%, subsequently lowering product shipping costs while maintaining or improving product protection.
Plastic is the most largely used material in confectionery packaging. Associations such as U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and European Food Safety Authority have put some stringent regulations, which may restrict the growth of flexible packaging. For example, materials made either entirely or partially from recycled plastics and used in contact with food, should only be obtained from processes, which have been assessed for safety by EFSA and authorised by the European Commission. Regulation EC 282/2008 establishes rules for the authorisation of processes used to recycle such materials. This restricts the use of all types and grades of plastic and hampers the plastic confectionery packaging market size.
