The global green packaging market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.84 percent from 2014-2019, says research firm TechNavio.
Growth will come in large part from the growing demand from the food and beverage industry, the largest consumer of green packaging materials.
As demand for eco-friendly packaging materials increases, leading manufacturers of food and beverage products — including Cadbury, Coca-Cola, ConAgra Foods, Nestle and Pepsico — now use sustainable packaging materials that preserve food and its nutritional value. This gives them a competitive advantage over other market players, says Faisal Ghaus, VP of TechNavio.
