Micro Packaging Market Industry Trends and Forecasts to 2028

Micro Packaging Market

Since the beginning of the millennium, nanotechnology, the field on which micro packaging is based, has seen tremendous inventive advancements. The notion of micro packaging was developed as a result of innovations such as active packaging, intelligent packaging, and nanobar codes. However, the development of specialised tools like atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning probe microscopy (SPM), through which researchers and scientists have gained an understanding of how to manipulate materials to achieve the desired effects, can be credited with the invention of nanotechnology in the 1980s. Almost every industry is making use of the capacity to alter materials at the nano scale to produce a variety of distinct attributes, including higher heat resistance, increased strength, and improved durability conductivity of electricity, etc.

Prior to COVID-19, businesses made rapid progress toward their sustainability objectives. However, the coronavirus pandemic has had a negative impact on a large number of industries, particularly the packaging sector. For packaging companies, cutting-edge reusable, biodegradable, and environmentally friendly solutions were created. The packaging industry's development toward a sustainable and circular supply chain was, however, temporarily halted by concerns about cleanliness and the safety of reusable packaging.

The plastic segment dominated the micro packaging market in terms of material in 2018 and is anticipated to hold onto the top spot over the course of the forecast period. From a manufacturing perspective, the creation of micro packaging made of plastic contributes to scale economies. However, due to growing environmental concerns over time, major industry players now favour sustainable materials to produce micro packaging solutions. Such trends are anticipated to manifest during the projection period, resulting in the expansion of the packaging segments made of paper.

In terms of material, the plastic segment dominated the micro packaging market in 2018, and it is projected that it will continue to do so throughout the rest of the projection period. Scale economies in manufacturing are facilitated by the development of plastic micro packaging. In contrast, key industrial players now favour sustainable materials to create tiny packaging solutions as a result of escalating environmental concerns over time. These trends are predicted to materialise during the forecast period, leading to the growth of the paper-based packaging sectors.
