Market Overview:
The global edible packaging market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for sustainable and environment-friendly packaging solutions, rising awareness about food safety, and growing trend of convenience foods. In terms of type, the polysaccharides segment is projected to lead the global edible packaging market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to their properties such as high water solubility, biodegradability, and non-toxicity which make them suitable for food applications. In terms of application, the food & beverages segment is projected to lead the global edible packaging market during the forecast period.
Product Definition:
Edible packaging is a material made of edible materials that are used to package food. The purpose of edible packaging is to protect food from contamination and environmental degradation, and to extend the shelf life of the food.
Polysaccharides:
Polysaccharides are mainly used in edible packaging materials as a substitute for fats, waxes and oils. They have the ability to maintain the structure of food products during transportation and storage. Also, they provide moisture retention properties to foods such as fruits & vegetables which makes them an ideal choice for long term food storage.
Lipid:
Lipid is a part of organic compounds and it's main components are fats & oils. The major function of lipid in edible packaging is to provide barrier properties to food products. It also helps in keeping the freshness and flavor of the packaged product for a longer time period. There are many types of lipids that can be used as edible packaging materials such as vegetable oil, animal fat, fish oil, coconut oil, palm kernel oil and sunflower butter among others.
Application Insights:
The food & beverage application segment led the global edible packaging market in 2017 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to increasing demand for packaged food products, including ready-to-eat meals, frozen foods, chilled foods and bakery products across the globe. Rising health concerns among consumers are also driving demand for nutritious food products with enhanced nutritional value that include vegetables and fruits along with low calorie snacks and desserts. These factors are expected to drive product demand in this segment over the coming years.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing regional market over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to rising disposable income, increasing population, and growing food & beverage industry in countries such as China and India. Furthermore, government initiatives for improving public health by increasing consumption of nutritious food are projected to fuel product demand in this region. For instance, according to a WHO fact sheet published in 2016; Indonesia has one of the highest obesity rates globally with more than 90%of adult population being overweight or obese.
Europe accounted for a significant share owing to early adoption of edible packaging solutions coupled with stringent regulations regarding safety standards imposed on packaged foods by regulatory bodies such as EFSI and REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for convenience foods: The growing demand for convenience foods is one of the key growth drivers for the edible packaging market. Convenience foods are those that can be easily prepared and consumed, without any major preparation time or hassle. This growing trend is fueling the demand for edible packaging products as they help in preserving the freshness and flavor of food items, while also making them easy to carry and consume on-the-go.
- Rising awareness about healthy eating habits: Another key growth driver for the edible packaging market is the increasing awareness among consumers about healthy eating habits. Consumers are now more inclined towards choosing healthier food options, which has led to an increase in demand for packaged and processed foods that come with added health benefits. Edible packaging products help in delivering these benefits by protecting food from external contaminants and preserving their nutritional value.
- Growing popularity of organic foods: The popularity of organic foods is another major factor driving growth in the edible packaging market . Organic Foods are those that are grown or produced without using any synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, or other artificial chemicals . They are considered healthier than conventionally grown produce as they contain no harmful chemicals or toxins . The rising popularity of organic foods is thus leading to an increase in demand for packaged organic food items , which in turn is boosting growth prospects for edible packaging products .
