Market Challenges
• The cost increase of raw materials, primarily plastic like PE and PP, significantly impacts the flexible packaging market. Prices surged in Asia, with PP rising by 6.2% in Q1 2022. This leads to reduced profit margins for vendors due to higher production costs. Consequently, they pass on these expenses to consumers through price hikes. Additionally, ink and coating prices escalated due to oil, solvent, and PU resin price rises. The tight titanium dioxide supply further boosts ink prices, potentially dampening demand for flexible packaging. To remain competitive, vendors explore cheaper alternatives. This trend may restrain the growth of the global flexible packaging market.
• The Flexible Packaging market faces several challenges. FOOD and SHELF LIFE are key considerations, requiring effective use of FILMs and ALUMINUM for protection. The need for PRODUCTS that are lightweight and easy to transport increases the demand for this packaging solution. However, ensuring CONSUMER safety and reducing WASTAGE are ongoing challenges. The use of PAPER and BOXES in conjunction with flexible packaging is a trend. Sustainability is also a concern, with the need to produce COSMETIC and other packaging that is RECYCLABLE and environmentally friendly. The market must also address the challenge of producing cost-effective and efficient PRODUCTION processes. Overall, the Flexible Packaging industry must continue to innovate to meet these challenges and provide effective solutions for businesses.
