Global Market Size, Forecast, and Trend Highlights Over 2025-2037

Aluminum Beverage Packaging Market size is anticipated to growing at more than 4.2% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037.

Factors such as the growing demand for sustainable packaging solutions, increasing awareness for green & eco-friendly packaging, increasing adoption of metal packaging, along with the high recyclable rates of aluminum are some of the major factors anticipated to drive the growth of the global aluminum beverage packaging market.

The global aluminum beverage packaging market is thriving on account of the growing number of health-conscious consumers who are highly aware of the negative health effects caused due to the manufacturing of the beverage from other packaging materials, along with the numerous benefits associated with the use of aluminum in the packaging of beverages. Aluminum possesses excellent preservative properties which help to protect the food content inside the aluminum container, and also helps to ensure longer shelf life. Moreover, aluminum possesses high structural integrity and hence, it helps the beverage manufacturers to opt for denser shipping, which further helps to reduce their transportation cost.

Growth Drivers

  • Growing Concern for the Environment to Drive the Growth of the Global Aluminum Beverage Packaging Market: According to the statistics by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), total landfills caused by plastic containers and packaging municipal solid waste (MSW) in the United States increased from 120 thousands of U.S. tons in the year 1960 to 10,090 thousands of U.S. tons in the year 2018.
  • Beverage packaging is done either by using metal packaging materials or by using polyethylene terephthalate (PET). One of the major drawbacks of single-use plastics is the non-biodegradable nature, which as a result takes centuries to decay. Further, PET bottles that are used for packaging beverages are known to be susceptible to oxidation, and hence cannot be used to store alcoholic beverages. Moreover, PET bottles are also known to contribute to the increasing landfills as these plastics can only be down-cycled and cannot be recycled in whole unlike aluminum, which can be recycled in total. This as a result is raising the need amongst the manufacturers in the beverages industry to prefer sustainable packaging methods, such as aluminum beverage containers for packaging different beverages. Moreover, increasing awareness amongst the end-users for the benefits of aluminum packaging, coupled with the stringent government norms for regulating the use of plastics, are some of the additional factors anticipated to drive the aluminum beverage packaging market growth. For instance, in May 2019, one of the subsidiaries of Aditya Birla Group, Hindalco Industries Ltd., announced a partnership with leading aluminum can manufacturers, Can-Pack India Pvt. Ltd., and Ball Beverage Packaging (India) Pvt. Ltd., to form a consortium called the Aluminium Beverages Can Association of India (ABCAI) which is aimed to build sustainable aluminum beverage packaging practices, raise awareness for the benefits of aluminum beverage can packaging, and increase the annual per capita beverage can consumption to 8 cans from 1 can by the end of 2030.

Challenges

  • Fluctuating Prices of Aluminum to Hamper the Market Growth- Over the past few decades, the price of aluminum has differed significantly. As a result, this has impacted the overall manufacturing cost of the aluminum beverage container manufacturers, thereafter raising the cost of the aluminum container. Such a factor is therefore anticipated to hamper the aluminum beverage packaging market growth in the coming years.

Aluminum Beverage Packaging Market Segmentation

The global aluminum beverage packaging market is segmented on the basis of product type into aluminum cans, kegs, barrel, bottle, drum, caps & closures, and others. Amongst these segments, the aluminum cans segment is projected to grab the largest market share by the end of 2037. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the high cost-effectiveness of aluminum cans in the packaging of beverages. Initially, aluminum cans were widely used in beer packaging, and hence, aluminum cans were also known as beer cans. With the advent of time, aluminum cans were also used to pack carbonated drink manufacturers and other non-alcoholic and alcoholic drinks. Aluminum cans are usually manufactured using different grades of aluminum. The most common grade used to manufacture the can body is aluminum 3004 alloy (also known as Al 3004 alloy, or AA3004), or aluminum 3104-H19 alloy (also known as Al 3104-H19 alloy, UNS A93104, or AA3104-H19). The cap or closure of the aluminum can is usually manufactured using aluminum 5182 alloy (also known as Al 5182 alloy or AA5182). Technically, aluminum cans are manufactured using the industrial regulatory standard GOST R 51756-2001 protocols. Aluminum cans are designed to withstand carbonation pressures of up to 90 pounds per square inch and hence it is widely preferred to package soda. 

The aluminum cans segment is further bifurcated into 2-piece and 3-piece. Out of these segments, the 2-piece aluminum can segment is anticipated to hold the largest aluminum beverage packaging market share by the end of 2037. Further, according to Research Nester’s analysis, the global aluminum cans market is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of around 4% during the forecast period 2024-2037 and further cross USD 56 billion by 2024.
