Summary:
The global market for plastics for healthcare packaging demand stood at REDACTED in 2019 and is expected to reach REDACTED by 2025. The global market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR REDACTED over the forecast period.
Plastics are one of the major raw materials used in the pharmaceutical and medical industries.Numerous medical products and packaging products are derived f rom plastic resins such as polypropylene, polyethylene and polyvinyl chloride.
Plastic resins' unique properties, such as light weight, durability, transparency and competitive cost, support plastic packaging demand in the healthcare industry.Plastic-enabled packaging innovations support medical products by protecting the product from external damages and guarding against contamination.
Owing to these factors, plastics have become an integral part of the healthcare industry and will continue to be that way in the coming years.
The growth of the global market for plastics for healthcare packaging market is impacted by several factors such as increased use of disposable products, an aging population in the U.S. and Europe, continuing cost pressures on suppliers, increasing influence of hospital and healthcare-related purchasing groups, continued shift to outside contract packaging, an emphasis on child-resistant/seniorfriendly and tamper-evident packaging, increases in unit-dose packaging, increases in injectable therapies, higher volumes of turn/twist caps, and more minimally invasive procedures. These factors are projected to drive innovations in the plastics healthcare packaging market over the forecast period.
The global plastics for healthcare packaging market is categorized into resin type, application and region.By resin type, the market is categorized into polypropylene, PVC, HDPE, LDPE/LLDPE, polyesters, polystyrenes and others.
In this segment, polypropylene accounted for the largest share at REDACTED in 2019 followed by PVC at REDACTED.
By application, the major plastic healthcare packaging products are segmented into two groups: medical and pharmaceutical.The former includes syringes, tubing, kits, intravenous (IV) bags, other bags and parts, trays and a miscellaneous group.
Pharmaceutical packaging products are made up of containers (mostly bottles and vials), closures (caps, lids, etc.), blister packaging and a miscellaneous category that includes other bags, pouches, etc. In the pharmaceutical segment, containers accounted for highest share at REDACTED in 2019, whereas blister packaging is projected to witness the highest growth with a CAGR of REDACTED over the forecast period. In the medical segment, tubing, syringes and kits are the leading healthcare packaging applications, accounting for REDACTED of total plastic volume in 2019.
In terms of region, the U.S. and Europe still dominate the global plastic for healthcare packaging market. These regions are expected to be major market through 2025 as these areas had a huge head start and maintain vibrant R&D programs in healthcare packaging. The impact of offshore activities is expected to challenge this market in the next decade.
The Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to continue its dominance with growing demand from China and India. Shifting manufacturing bases across Asia-Pacific region will also boost demand along with the rise of several domestic players in the Asia-Pacific market.
