Thus, governments have made strict policies over the packaging of the products, which in turn is driving the demand for intelligent packaging as it improves the food lifecycle as well as enhances its safety.
Key Industry vertical:
The Retail & E-commerce industry segment is anticipated to dominate the intelligent packaging market during the forecast period
The increase in the need to track the goods in transit and ensure the safety & delivery of the products are the major factors boosting the demand for intelligent packaging in this segment. Moreover, the growing trend of online shopping is also fuelling the demand for intelligent packaging as retailers are continuously trying to improve their product offerings through numerous ways such as services, faster delivery, and packaging.
Regional Market Scenario:
Asia-Pacific will lead the growth in this market
It is expected that North America will hold the largest market share in the global intelligent packaging market. However, Asia-Pacific (APAC) is projected to hold the highest CAGR during the forecast period. North America is estimated to dominate the global intelligent packaging market due to, the presence of major market players in this region. In addition, the presence of the majority of the pharmaceutical and food & beverage industries is also fuelling the market growth in this region.
On the contrary, the growth of the intelligent packaging market in the Asia-Pacific region is mainly attributed to the increase in awareness of food hygiene and safety among consumers. In addition, rising concerns over counterfeiting of goods among manufacturers are also fuelling the market growth in this region.
