Dublin, March 31, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global Packaging Machinery Market By End Use, By Machine Type, By Regional Outlook, Industry Analysis Report and Forecast, 2021 - 2027" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global packaging machinery market size is expected to reach $58.3 billion by 2027, rising at a market growth of 5.9% CAGR during the forecast period.

Machinery that helps in performing numerous functions related to the packaging of any product or a group of products is known as packaging machinery. This machinery performs functions like canning; filling, container cleaning, and forming; bagging, sealing, unpacking, packing, bottling, and lidding; inspection and check weighing; shrink film, wrapping, and heat sealing; labeling, case forming, and encoding; palletizing and depalletizing; and others.

The growth of the packaging machinery market is attributed to the increasing demand for packaging in logistics and transportation. There are numerous logistics and transportation enterprises that need packaging machinery to package and bundle their goods & commodities before the shipment of these products. The packaging machinery market is expected to witness bright growth prospects with the growing logistics & transportation sector. Packaging helps in ensuring the hygiene and safety of products and consignments at the time of transportation. In addition, the market growth is further driven by the booming e-commerce sector.

The increasing implementation of networking architectures, servos, and robotic applications is among the key aspects fueling the growth of packaging machinery market. This trend is expected to create lucrative opportunities for OEMs to better respond to the requirement for increased automation by replacing conventional pneumatic machinery with advanced electromechanical systems. Similarly, the growing adoption of robotics and similar technology is instrumental in order to bring complete automation in the packaging process and industry. The adoption of highly advanced technologies across the value chain, consisting of product packaging, production, logistics, warehousing, and supply chain within the packaging industry, is increasing.

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the supply chain of numerous sectors across the globe. The imposition of lockdown and a temporary ban on manufacturing units, along with the restrictions of imports & exports have significantly impacted the packaging machinery market in the initial phase of the pandemic. However, the increasing production of various medical gears like masks, PPE kits, and others, has positively impacted the demand of advanced packaging machinery.

Moreover, several manufacturers had to restrict their workforce at their manufacturing units owing to the regulations and rules imposed by the governments. Though, the deployment of advanced techniques by OEMs to boost production capacity is expected to support the growth of the packaging machinery market over the forecast period. In the same way, the overall market is expected to witness bright growth prospects due to the surge in preference of consumers towards e-commerce channels due to the pandemic.

Growing demand for various packaged and convenient food products

With the changing lifestyle of consumers, the demand for convenient and packaged food products has significantly increased in the last few years. The busy schedule of consumers is motivating them to adopt ready-to-go food products, which is expected to augment the growth of the packaging machinery market over the forecast period. In addition, the increasing population of working people is expected to create more demand for packaged food and thus, contributing to the market growth.

Increasing concerns regarding the safety and hygiene of the products

With the increasing cases of various diseases along with the COVID-19 pandemic, people are becoming more concerned about the safety and sanitization of their products. In addition, manufacturers are increasingly using automated packaging machinery for ensuring the safety of their products. Packaging machinery helps in minimizing human touch, which reduces the chances of transmission of any disease, especially in the case of the COVID-19 pandemic.

High cost and the technical failures of the packaging machinery is expected to hinder the growth of the market

The overall cost of packaging machinery is quite high as it included the cost of manufacturing and the cost of implementation, due to this, several small and medium-sized manufacturing units is expected to restrict themselves from adopting the automated and advanced packaging machinery. In addition, technical failures of such machinery is expected to incur more expenses to the manufacturers, which is expected to hamper the demand for packaging machinery.

Based on End Use, the market is segmented into Food, Beverages, Pharmaceuticals, Chemicals, Personal Care and Others. The food segment procured the highest revenue share in the market in 2020. The increasing number of product launches and the expansion in the retail network is expected to fuel the demand for packaged food, which is expected to further accelerate the growth of the market. The increasing consumption of beverages, expansion in the range of beverages, and the shifting preference of the consumers towards functional & organic beverages are some of the driving factors for the growth of the segment. The introduction of innovative and new products by various beverage manufacturers is estimated to fuel the demand for extremely advanced and flexible packaging machines to cater to these product portfolios.

Based on Machine Type, the market is segmented into Filling, Cartoning, Wrapping, Palletizing, Labeling, Form-Fill-Seal, Bottling Line and Others. The form-fill-seal segment is expected to exhibit the highest growth rate during the forecast period. Factors such as rise in popularity of flexible packaging and higher preference for single serve packages are responsible for the growth of this segment. These form-fill-seal machines are developed to make packages with the material transferred from a roll, fill it with the product, and seal it. The majority of such machines make the primary package like a bag or a pouch, utilizing a flexible film.

Based on Regions, the market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Latin America, Middle East & Africa. North America is projected to record a promising growth rate in the packaging machinery market during the forecast period. The growth catalyst for regional market is increased demand for fully automated and integrated machines that provide higher efficiency and processing speeds with less energy consumption.
