Glass Packaging Market growth drivers in 2017 & Challenges by 2024
Glass Packaging Market has been undergoing a plethora of changes over the recent
years with regards to innovations, enhanced branding, and unconventional
packaging formats. Glass being 100% recyclable, is one of the most trusted and
proven packaging solutions related to health, taste, and sustainability. In
fact, statistics claim that glass is the only extensively used food packaging
material that have been granted with the highest standard certification, ‘GRAS’
(as a recognized safe material) by the Food and Drug Administration.
The impermeable and chemically unreactive characteristics of
glass materials is further enhancing the application scope of glass material
packaging industry across various domains, pharmaceutical and alcoholic
beverages being at the pinnacle. As per a recent market speculation put
forward by Global Market Insights, Inc., global glass packaging industry will
surpass a valuation of USD 65 billion by the end of 2024, with an estimated
CAGR of 4.5% over 2017-2024.
Worldwide, glass packaging
industry is fragmented with leading six companies representing only 30% of the
revenue share. In this competitive scenario, it has been observed that industry
biggies are adopting mergers and acquisitions and strategic collaborations to sustain
their geographical presence. Companies are continuously trying to expand
their production capacities by incorporating innovative products that are
highly customized. Some of the renowned names in glass packaging market are
Saint-Gobain, Owens-Illinois Inc, Gerresheimer AG, Vetropack Holding AG,
Hindustan National Glass (HNG), Ardagh Group S.A., Piramal, Stölzle-Oberglas
GmbH and Nihon Yamamura Glass Co., Ltd.
Pharmaceutical sector is one
of the most outpacing domains actively driving glass packaging industry
commercialization. The prime factor that can be credited for the market
proliferation is the unprecedented rate of innovations outlining the business
landscape.
One such breakthrough is
Corning’s revolutionary pharmaceutical glass packaging solution, Valor Glass.
As it is proclaimed, Valor Glass offers superior strength, enhanced chemical
durability, chemical resistance, assuring better protection of the drugs.
Recently Corning and Stevanato Group have entered a strategic partnership
focusing on merchandizing Corning’s Valor Glass to the glass packaging market.
Another instance of such collaborations which is expected to be a
potential boost for the overall industry dynamics from pharmaceutical
applications is the business alliance between Merck, Corning, and Pfizer over
Valor Glass
packaging. Keeping into consideration the chain of positive disruptive
trends, it is certain that pharmaceutical sector will contribute a significant
portion toward the global glass packaging industry in the coming years, with a
projected CAGR of over 4% over 2017-2024.
Having acquired a major
portion of the glass packaging market share in past years, alcoholic beverage
and beer sector emerged to be another profitable domain thriving the business
landscape. The rising consumption of beer especially across APAC belt can be
primarily attributed for the market revenue. In this regard, it is
prudent to note that Asia Pacific almost represented 40% of the glass packaging
industry in 2016.
Increasing disposable incomes, a significant
influence of the westernized lifestyles, and reduced cost of beers across some
of the regions have acted in favor of the market growth. In fact, as per
statistics, consumption of beer in Mexico and Vietnam have experienced an
increase of around 6.5% and 7.5% respectively over the period of 2014-2015.
Glass packaging is widely adopted for alcoholic beverages and beers, subject to
its sustainability, non-permeability, and negligible chemical reaction rate
which allows it to be best fit for long term preservation.
The industry is faced by several challenges,
the prime being the rising popularity of plastic packaging which has observed
rapid advancements in recent years. The linear growth curve of plastic
packaging market can be attributed to some of its adhered benefits like easy
transportation, cost effectiveness, durability, and aesthetic features.
However, with increasing consumer preference for sustainable packaging
materials having a high grade environmental viability, glass packing market is
forecast to witness an appreciable growth in the years ahead.
