Rigid Packaging Segment Maintains Strong Market Position

By format, the rigid packaging segment is estimated to account for a substantial share of the global food packaging market. Rigid packaging solutions-including glass, metal, and rigid plastics-are widely valued for their durability, protective properties, and versatility. Glass jars and bottles are extensively used for beverages, sauces, and preserves due to their excellent barrier properties against moisture, oxygen, and contaminants, ensuring extended shelf life. Metal packaging, such as cans and tins, remains a preferred choice for canned foods and beverages, offering superior strength and high recyclability. Meanwhile, hard plastic containers are commonly adopted for dairy products, ready-to-eat meals, and snacks owing to their lightweight nature and impact resistance. The segment's sustained growth is supported by consumer preference for packaging that preserves product integrity, alongside increased adoption of sustainable and recyclable rigid materials.

Bottles Emerge as a Key Packaging Type

By packaging type, bottles are expected to hold a significant share of the food packaging market. Bottles are extensively used for dairy products, sauces, condiments, and cooking oils due to their rigid structure, resealability, and compatibility with automated filling and sealing systems. Materials such as PET, HDPE, and glass provide varying degrees of durability, barrier protection, and recyclability, supporting both product safety and shelf stability. Ongoing innovations-including lightweight designs, tamper-evident closures, and enhanced barrier coatings-are improving functionality while reducing environmental impact. Additionally, regulatory initiatives aimed at reducing single-use plastics are encouraging the adoption of recyclable and biobased bottle formats, particularly in North America and Europe. The growing demand for premium and health-focused food products is further driving the need for packaging that enhances branding and shelf appeal.
