The global PET packaging market was valued at US$74,320 million in 2021 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% during the forecast period 2022-2032.

The global PET packaging market accounted for US$74,320 million in 2021 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% during the forecast period to reach US$137,564 billion by 2032. Some of the factors driving the market growth are the world's rapidly expanding population which has resulted in an exponential increase in packaged items that require PET packaging; rising consumer awareness of environmentally friendly products, along with western influence, is the major driver driving the PET packaging market's expansion. Also, for brand uniqueness, there is a growth for customised and different-sized packets. PET packaging is also in high demand in other industries such as food, pharmaceuticals, and healthcare.

How has COVID-19 had a significant negative impact on the PET Packaging Market?
COVID-19 has an influence on 2020 collection rates. Initially, some towns halted official and informal return programs, affecting collection rates and the availability of recycled PET or aluminium for new packaging. Several Latin American countries, for example, directed garbage collectors to cease collecting empty packages early in the outbreak. Some state deposit systems in the United States have shut down empty container redemption sites. Other countries have put a stop to curbside and drop-off recycling. The collection has mostly resumed, and we regard this as a temporary stumbling block that will be overcome when things return to "normal." We're still on track to meet our Collect 2030 target.

Governments that lack an efficient waste management infrastructure are overburdened and unable to shoulder the collection and recycling load on their own. During the COVID-19 crisis, this became even more evident, and the difficulty only worsened as virgin PET prices continued to fall. We're taking a more proactive approach to working with governments and other stakeholders to promote legislation that encourages the collection and recycling of packaging materials.

The COVID-19 epidemic has brought to light the flaws of the linear economy, highlighting the urgent need to rethink how plastics are produced, used, and reused. For example, demand for takeout food containers and bubble wrap is skyrocketing, with much of it not recyclable, while initiatives aimed at limiting single-use plastic goods are being halted. This crisis, on the other hand, has proved the rapidity with which the globe can mobilise change, and post-COVID-19 economic recovery plans provide an opportunity to take the essential action on plastic pollution.

What are the current market drivers?

Increase in Demand of Healthcare Products Leading to Growth in the Need of Packaging Solutions
People are becoming more concerned about their own health, which is contributing to better lives. As a result, demand for packaged goods such as gluten-free, organic/natural, portion-controlled meals and beverages, as well as non-prescription medications and nutritional supplements, is increasing. Healthcare packaging is expected to increase at the quickest pace, marginally ahead of cosmetics packaging. This is due to an increase in demand for a wide range of pharmaceuticals as a result of an ageing population. Consumers are also becoming more health-conscious, resulting in increased demand for over-the-counter (OTC) medicine, vitamins, and nutritional supplements.
