Wicketed Bags Market: Overview
- According to Transparency Market Research’s latest market report on the wicketed bags market for the historical period 2015-2019 and forecast period 2020-2028, rising demand for flexible packaging over rigid and aesthetic dispensing of the food items via transparent packaging is projected to drive the market
- Globally, the revenue generated by the wicketed bags market is projected to expand at a CAGR of 4.8%, in terms of value, during the forecast period
Sustainability Offered by Flexible Packaging Driving Wicketed Bags Market
- There are a number of advantages over conventional packaging materials, as chemical properties possessed by flexible packings offer durability, added with sustainability. Furthermore, less raw material is also consumed while manufacturing the flexible packaging formats, their reduction in energy usage, relatively low waste produced, and lower carbon footprint.
- Globally, governments are focusing on framing strict policies regarding recyclability and reusability of plastic materials. Imposition of such laws is expected to bolster the demand for sustainable flexible packaging in the future. The PET plastic is considered to be more sustainable as compared to other plastics and therefore, wicketed bags made of PET are expected to expand at a CAGR of 4.3% by 2028.
End Users Switching to Bio-Based Material from Traditional Packaging Materials
- With the shift of using bio-based materials for the manufacturing of wicketed bags instead of toxic plastic is creating new growth opportunities in the market. Increasing government regulations and environment concerns have unlocked new doors for the manufacturers of wicketed bags to strive ahead toward innovation.
- Many manufacturers have already launched sustainable wicketed bags; however, rest of the players are undergoing rigorous R&D to meet sustainability needs.
- Manufacturers such as International Plastics Inc. and Friesen Plastics Inc. are eco-friendly wicketed bagss with FDA approved virgin raw materials added with the Global Food Safety Initiative (GSFI) benchmarking and compliant with AQMD standards
- Indian manufacturer Ashok Polymers are manufacturing wicketed bagss made of oxo biodegradable material
Durable, Tear Resistant Properties Fueling Wicketed Bags Market Growth
- Flexible packaging is widely preferred for properties such as cost effectiveness, durability, and low weight. Flexible packaging occupy smaller spaces during packaging and accommodation on shelves. Wicketed bags enhance the aesthetic appeal of a product and can augment product dispensing, along with durable packaging. Thus, an increasing inclination of product manufacturers toward the adoption of flexible packaging solutions over rigid packaging in primary packaging is observed.
- Furthermore, wicketed bags are customizable and can be manufactured as per industry requirement. Flexibility in production allows stretch films to be one of the most sought after packaging solutions in retail & consumer, institutional, and industrial sectors. Moreover, wicketed bags also provide high puncture and tear resistant, and therefore offer high reliability when it comes to food packaging. All these factors are likely to accelerate the demand for wicketed bags among industry players.
