Thermoforming is the process of producing plastic products wherein the thermoplastic sheet of particular sized is clamped in place, heated to softening temperature and forced against the mold with the help of air or vacuum pressure or mechanical means. Thermoform packaging is one of the important packaging solutions for pharmaceutical manufacturers. Drug manufacturers are inclined to use thermoform packaging to promote as well as increase the shelf life of the product. The above factor has fueled the growth of the global thermoforming machines market. Thermoforming machines are used for variety of applications such as packaging, automotive parts, trays, agricultural machinery parts, pallets, building products and signs. The thermoforming machine can convert thick sheet applications to composite sheets which results in thinner walled parts and therefore are ideal for weight-sensitive applications. With the increase in the consumption of seafood, meat & poultry among the consumers is expected to increase in the sales of thermoforming machines globally. Moreover, the presentation of the product has to be unique which is co-related with the brand differentiation that in turn escalates the sales of thermoformed packaging in the near future. Thermoforming machines are used in various end-use industry which includes food, beverage, pharmaceuticals and automobile. Overall the global viewpoint for the thermoforming machine market is anticipated to remain positive during the forecast period.
