Packaged beverage sales are expanding due to rising disposable income in developing nations and an expanding global population. The Brewers Association estimates that the global beer market will be worth USD 94.1 billion in 2020, while the global craft beer market will be worth USD 22.2 billion. According to the WHO, the average annual intake of alcohol among those aged 15 and over was 8.6 litres in 2010 and 8.8 litres in 2016. Total packaged beverage consumption has increased in emerging nations like India as a result of the growing urban population and changing lifestyle. Approximately 30.58% of India's total population lived in urban areas in 2009, according to data published by the World Bank, and this number rose to 34.47% in 2019. In India, alcohol consumption climbed from 4.3 to 5.9 litres per person between 2010 and 2017, according to a study that was published in the Lancet journal. The large population in developing nations like China and India is anticipated to fuel the market for beverage packaging.
The demand for packaged juices, energy drinks, and health drinks has surged as a result of youths' growing health consciousness, creating enormous sales growth prospects for manufacturers. The demand for flavoured water enhanced with vitamins, natural flavours, or flavourings derived from natural sources like basil, lemon, mint, orange, hibiscus, and fruits has also increased as a result of increased tourism, easy access to bottled water, and preferences for a healthy lifestyle on the go. Revolutionary beverage cartons designed for maximum eco-friendliness and freshness preservation
Beverage packaging provides tamper resistance, and protection, and satisfies any biological, chemical, or physical requirements of the beverage. Beverage packaging also promotes nutrition and ensures efficient distribution throughout the value chain. Due to a number of issues, including escalating health concerns, the size of beverage packaging has been a divisive topic for the past ten years. Aerated drinks and other consumables consumed in excess lead to an unbalanced level of sugar in the blood. It increases the risk of Type 2 diabetes by impairing the liver's capacity to metabolise sugar intake. In order to provide consumers more options and allow them more control over how much they drink, beverage makers are under tremendous pressure to minimise the size of their packaging. Additionally, a number of producers have made commitments to lower the calorie content, necessitating smaller packaging.
The sales of beverage packaging items including plastic and paper bottles and containers are also increasing as a result of customers' active lifestyles and their resulting reliance on packaged beverages. Due to their superior barrier qualities, convenient format, high-quality printability, and responsible use of material resources, plastic products benefit from this trend by increasing sales. Thus, driving the Beverage Cartons market revenue.
The Beverage Cartons Market segmentation, based on type, includes refrigerated cartons and shelf-stable cartons. The shelf-stable cartons segment accounted for the largest market share in 2022. Due to the creation of a sanitary environment, many beverage items, including milkshakes and fruit juices, are vulnerable to microbial proliferation at elevated temperatures. As a result, beverage producers are switching to chilled cartons that can be kept at specific temperatures. In addition, these cartons are simpler to recycle than shelf-stable cartons, which supports the segment's expansion on the global market.
The market for shelf-stable beverage cartons is anticipated to grow more quickly due to the rising need for packaging that can extend product shelf life. Consumers may easily carry expensive goods over greater distances because these containers don't need to be refrigerated before being opened.
The Beverage Cartons Market segmentation, based on application, includes fruit & vegetable juices, dairy products, and others. The dairy products segment accounted for largest market share in 2022. The category now holds the greatest market due to the rising consumption of various dairy-based beverages including fresh milk, UHT milk, milkshakes, packaged coffees, and nutritional drinks.
Future growth projections indicate that the others segment, which primarily consists of still drinks, alcoholic beverages, and sparkling waters, will expand at the fastest rate. This is due to young consumers' increased demand for these beverages. To take advantage of possible growth prospects in this market, beverage producers proactively work with carton manufacturers. Additionally, the rise of bottled water has been constrained by the regulations on single-use plastics, forcing manufacturers of mineral water to switch to boxed packaging forms. The expansion of the other segment is also anticipated to be boosted by this cause.
