Secondary Paper & Paperboard Luxury Packaging Market Forecast

The global secondary paper & paperboard luxury packaging market is expected to reach USD 6,581.2 million by 2027 and register a CAGR of 6.0% during the forecast period of 2020 to 2027.

Market Overview:

The global market for secondary paper & paperboard luxury packaging is expected to grow at a steady rate during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the increasing usage of sustainable and bio-degradable packaging, rapid technological advancements, and the ability to create unique designs, shapes, finishes, and effects, and increasing dependence on e-commerce platforms. However, rising concerns over carbon emissions during manufacturing and changing consumer demands are expected to restrain the growth of the global market during the study period. Nevertheless, the rise in individual spending capacity is expected to create growth opportunities of secondary paper & paperboard luxury packaging market for players during the forecast period.

Impact of COVID-19

The demand for packaging products has declined considerably from the industrial sectors, including food & beverage, confectionery, personal care & cosmetics, wines & spirits, and fashion, owing to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The packaging industry witnessed a mixed impact due to the significant changes in brick-and-mortar stores and online businesses attributed to the moving restrictions implied by the government authorities to prevent the further spread of the deadly virus. The packaging manufacturers supply their products for the packaging of various products across end-use industry verticals, such as pharmaceuticals, food & beverages, and automotive, to name a few. Due to the restrictions imposed on manufacturing industries and the slowdown in economic activities, the packaging industry reported a significant downfall in its revenues globally.

Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Growing use of sustainable and bio-degradable packaging

The invention of plastics to overcome the problems with alternatives, such as wood, glass, paper & paperboard, and metal, boosted their adoption across several end-use verticals, including food & beverage, confectionery, personal care & cosmetics, wines & spirits, and fashion. This, unfortunately, gave rise to a severe problem of pollution and impacted the Earth’s ecosystems on which mankind depends largely. In 2018, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reported the generation of 14,530 thousand US tons of plastic containers and municipal solid waste. However, only 1,980 thousand US tons was recycled, resulting in 10,090 thousand US tons going into landfills in the same year. This is raising concerns over environmental sustainability and greenhouse gases and resulting in changing climatic conditions.

• Rapid technological advancements


• Increasing demand from e-commerce platforms

Restraints

• Rising concerns over carbon emissions during manufacturing

The essential raw materials for manufacturing secondary paper & paperboards used in luxury packaging are easy to recycle, naturally decomposable, and provide environmental sustainability. However, its raw material, i.e., paper, is mainly obtained by cutting down a large number of trees, leading to deforestation. According to an Ecobahn post, more than 55% of paper/cardboard is manufactured from the wood chips sourced from the trees. Furthermore, the paper & paperboard manufacturing process involves boiling them in water or mixed with chemicals that produce pulp, which, when spread and pressed over large, flat screens, turns into paper. This process requires a lot of water and fuel to boil the water, which adds up to the water and air pollution. Additionally, a rise in carbon emissions, greenhouse gases, and temperature levels has been witnessed an increase across the globe. According to the Cardboard Federation of France estimations, the production process of 1 ton of cardboard releases over 538 kg of carbon dioxide, considering the material sourcing, transportation, manufacturing, and disposal of waste materials. This is raising concerns regarding the use of paper & paperboard for luxury packaging applications. Thus, the rising concerns over carbon emissions during manufacturing are expected to restrict the growth of the global secondary paper & paperboard luxury packaging market during the forecast period.

• Changing consumer demands

Opportunity

• Rise in individual spending capacities

The popularity of the online purchasing of consumer goods and appliances, such as consumer durables, high-quality cosmetics, packaged food & beverage, confectionery items, personal care & hygiene, wines & spirits, clothing, apparel, and fashion, is increasing rapidly. This can be primarily attributed to the rising per capita disposable incomes and easy access to credit. Other factors such as rapid urbanization, increased standard of living, and growing demand for luxury items contribute to the demand for consumer goods. Additionally, emerging economies such as Canada, Brazil, Vietnam, India, and the Philippines are growing rapidly with the help of technological advancements and industrialization, increasing employability and skilled jobs. Hence, this enables the individuals to spend on luxury products, expanding the spending capabilities. Thus, the rise in individual spending capacities is expected to present a lucrative growth opportunity for the players operating in the global secondary paper & paperboard luxury packaging market.
