The Global Secondary Packaging Market was valued at USD 259.48 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5% from 2024 to 2032. The rise of e-commerce has significantly influenced the market, as online shopping requires durable packaging solutions to protect products during transit. With the shift towards direct-to-consumer sales, companies are investing in secondary packaging that is both robust and lightweight, ensuring protection during shipping while keeping costs low. This has driven demand for materials like corrugated boxes, bubble wrap, and shrink films that provide efficient logistics protection. Sustainability has become a key factor driving the secondary packaging market, as environmental concerns and regulatory pressures grow.
Companies now focus on eco-friendly packaging solutions that reduce environmental impact, such as biodegradable, recyclable, and reusable materials. This trend is driven by increasing consumer demand for greener products and stricter packaging waste regulations. Businesses are prioritizing sustainable practices to align with these demands, aiming to minimize their ecological footprint. The market is segmented by material, including plastic, paper & paperboard, metal, wood, and others.
In 2023, the paper & paperboard segment held the largest market share, accounting for over 42%. Paper and paperboard are gaining popularity due to their sustainability and versatility. These materials are renewable, making them a favorable alternative to plastics. Technological advancements have improved their strength and durability, making them suitable for a wide range of packaging applications.
