Market Highlights

The global Ice Cream Packaging market is accounted to register a CAGR of 4.50% during the forecast period and is estimated to reach USD 1.28 billion by 2032.

There are nutritional benefits to traditional ice cream but no health benefits. Thus, customers may be persuaded to select the product as a healthy snack option by the growing interest of market participants in the fortification and addition of beneficial ingredients. Beyond providing basic nourishment, functional foods can also help lower or minimize the risk of certain diseases. As a frozen dairy product, ice cream will eventually go bad (typically within two to three months), but improper storage can cause it to go bad in just a few days. Microorganisms and an unpleasant odor will typically develop in a product kept in a stale storage environment. Additionally, it may detect volatile flavors that have been absorbed from the storage environment, such as paint and ammonia.
