Market Overview:
The global edible packaging materials market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for edible packaging materials from the pharmaceuticals, fresh food, cakes & confectionery, baby food, dairy products and other applications industries. In terms of type, the proteins segment is expected to lead the global edible packaging materials market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to their high water solubility and good film-forming properties which make them suitable for use in various applications such as pharmaceuticals and fresh food.
Product Definition:
Edible packaging materials are materials that are made to be eaten and can serve as a food container. They may be made from a variety of edible materials, such as fruits, vegetables, grains, or proteins. Edible packaging is used to store and transport food products. It helps to keep the food fresh and prevents it from coming into contact with harmful contaminants.
Proteins:
Proteins are organic compounds that are made of amino acids. Proteins can be categorized as animal based and vegetable based. The most common sources of animal-based proteins include meat, milk, eggs, and seafood while vegetable-based proteins include soybeans, lentils, beans and nuts among others.
Gelatin:
Gelatin is a protein derived from collagen. It is primarily used in the food industry as an edible film-forming material and as a gelling agent in various food products such as jellies, desserts, candies, and other confectioneries. The primary source of gelatin is tendons, skin & bones of animals ( beef & pork). Gelatin can be extracted from different sources at varying temperatures; however it does not change its functional properties.
Application Insights:
The global edible packaging materials market has been segmented into cakes & confectionery, fresh food, pharmaceuticals, baby food, dairy products and others. The fresh foods segment held the largest share in 2017 due to rising demand for packaged salads and fruits among other foods. Increasing consumption of various convenience foods such as microwaveable meals is also expected to contribute toward growth over the forecast period.
The pharmaceuticals application segment is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing use of gelatin capsules in this industry along with growing consumer preference for oral medication among several countries worldwide including China India Japan Mexico Brazil Germany France UK U.
Regional Analysis:
North America accounted for the largest market share of more than 35% in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its lead over the forecast period owing to growing demand from various end-use industries, such as food & beverage and pharmaceutical. Europe edible packaging materials market is also estimated to witness significant growth due to rising consumer awareness regarding health & hygiene and fresh food products requirements.
Asia Pacific edible packaging materials industry is projecteded grow at a lucrative rate over the forecast period owing to increasing disposable income coupled with changing lifestyles of consumers in emerging economies including China, India, Thailand, Indonesia among others will drive this growth further.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for convenience foods: The growing demand for convenience foods is one of the key growth drivers for the edible packaging materials 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 materials, as they help to keep food fresh and uncontaminated.
- Rising awareness about healthy eating: Another key growth driver for the edible packaging materials market is the rising awareness about healthy eating among consumers worldwide. Consumers are increasingly looking for ways to reduce their intake of processed foods and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables instead. This is driving the demand for edible packaging materials, as they help to preserve the freshness and nutritional value of food items.
- Growing popularity of organic food: The popularity of organic food is another major growth driver for the edible packaging materials market . Organic food refers to those products that are grown without using any synthetic fertilizers or pesticides . This type of agriculture helps to maintain soil health and protect water resources, making it a more sustainable option than conventional farming methods . The growing popularity of organic food is thus leading to increased adoption of edible packaging materials by manufacturers worldwide .
