Claim your Share of the Fiber-Based Packaging Market: How Yangi Collaborates with Packaging Producers & Converters
As consumers put more pressure on brands to switch to sustainable packaging alternatives such as fiber-based packaging, it is crucial that packaging producers and converters respond swiftly to this growing demand by adopting new technologies that address this market need, getting ahead of the curve.
According to Smithers Pira’s The Global Future of Packaging to 2028, the market for sustainable packaging is projected to grow at an annual rate of 5.9%, reaching USD 244 billion by 2028, which they state will be primarily driven by the rising demand for sustainable and recyclable solutions in the fiber-based packaging market.
This market growth is further accelerated by regulatory pressures, such as the European Union’s Single-Use Plastics Directive, which aims to reduce the environmental impact of certain plastic products and includes a ban on specific single-use plastic items where alternatives are readily available.
Additionally, companies must brace for substantial shifts in managing their product packaging to comply with the PPWR (Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation), an EU initiative focused on reducing packaging waste and enhancing recycling and reuse. This regulation will profoundly transform the design, consumption, and disposal of packaging across all value chains in the EU.
Furthermore, technological advancements have made fiber-based materials more durable and versatile, effectively replacing plastic in many applications without compromising functionality. While the initial cost of switching to fiber-based packaging can be high, the long-term benefits far outweigh the initial investment. According to Accenture’s The Future of Packaging in a Circular Economy report, companies could save up to USD 3.5 billion annually by adopting circular economy principles, including sustainable packaging.
By adopting Yangi’s dry forming manufacturing technology, packaging producers can not only meet consumer expectations but also benefit from environmental, economic, and regulatory advantages, positioning themselves as leaders in the evolving packaging industry.
