How has COVID-19 had a significant negative impact on the Fresh Food Packaging Market?
The increase and shift in demand from the food service channel to the retail market, driven by increased domestic use due to precautionary measures taken by COVID-19 shelters, will lead to an increase in volumes, revenues and profits for some manufacturers of consumer packaged goods. In the COVID age, demand for packaged food is growing as opposed to loose food. Packaged food should maintain the food hygiene and consumer confidence to prove that no positive person from Covid-19 has come into contact with the food. With regard to Covid-19, orders of packaged items and bulk items have increased as well, which have been converted to retail packaging. This is expected to continue by 2022 as food service decreases continuously and retail demand increases.

What are the current market drivers?
Innovations in packaging technologies are driving the global fresh food packaging market. The major drivers leading market growth is the invention of active and intelligent packaging. Active packaging materials are intended to actively preserve or enhance the quality of the product by removing unnecessary components from the package headspace and/or the food, or by releasing active components into the food or its environment. As a result of these activities, shelf life is extended, protection and sensory qualities are increased, and product quality is maintained. For instance, moisture scavenger packaging technology absorb liquid weeping from food, thus maintain its shelf life. Examples of common commercial scavenger pads and sachets that absorb moisture from food include Dri-Loc by Novipax, absorbent pads by Thermasorb, and MeatPad by McAirlaid’s.

Where are the market opportunities?
Introduction of nanotechnology in food packaging technologies is expected to provide great opportunity for the market during the forecast period. The shelf-life of food products can be extended through such packaging. Increased gas barrier properties, mechanical strength and thermal stability were shown in polyp-silicate nanocomposites. The permeability of nanotechnology has been affected and increased barrier properties, mechanical and thermal resistances improved, antimicrobial surfaces have been developed and microbiological and biochemical changes have been identified and realised. For instance, the "NanoBioluminescence Detection Spray" was developed by AgroMicron which contains a luminescent protein designed to bind to the surface of microbes like Salmonella and E. coli.
