Molded Fiber Packaging Market Size Worth USD 7.09 Billion in 2032 | Emergen Research

Vancouver, Jan. 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global molded fiber packaging market size was USD 4.60 Billion in 2022 and is expected to register a rapid revenue CAGR of 4.3% during the forecast period. Increasing customer awareness towards recyclable and eco-friendly molded fiber packaging and environmental impact associated with packaging materials is a major factor driving market revenue growth. Molded fiber packaging emerges as a more sustainable option, as it combines various fibrous materials, including recycled paper, cardboard, and other fibers, during the manufacturing process.

Moreover, rising trend of adopting molded fiber over other products owing to various benefits is also expected to drive market revenue growth during the forecast period. There is rising preference among consumers for sustainable packaging solutions made from fiber, with the decline in popularity and even bans on plastic packaging in certain regions. As a result, retailers are seeking cost-effective alternatives, leading to rising demand for molded fiber packaging. The prices of molded fiber remain stable, which is directly proportional to overall cost savings for businesses, due to the fluctuating market for petroleum-based resin.

However, increasing pollution due to manufacturing of molded fiber packaging is a key factor, which could restrain market revenue growth. Molded pulp and paper production constitutes a significant environmental concern within the industrial sector, ranking as the third largest contributor to air, water, and land pollution in the U.S. Pulp mills emit various chemical compounds, including sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and carbon dioxide, into the atmosphere, which are hazardous greenhouse gases, responsible for acid rain formation and contributing to climate change.
