Molded Pulp Packaging Market Segmentation:
End-user Segment Analysis
The food packaging segment is estimated to gain the largest molded pulp packaging market share in the year 2035. The growth of the segment can be attributed to a rise in the number of people using online food services. By 2027, it is anticipated that almost 2,600 million people would order food online around the world. Besides this, the high non-renewable waste generation from the food packaging industry is also anticipated to augment the segment growth. In the United States, food packaging materials account for around 63% of the millions of tons of solid trash that are produced there. Moreover, in 2018 the United States manufactured close to 2 million tons of aluminum packaging which is a non-renewable packaging material. It can be seen all over the grocery stores from chips bags to soda cans.
Product Type Segment Analysis
The cups segment is expected to garner a significant share in the year 2035. The growth of the segment is majorly attributed to the rising use of coffee cups which majorly contributes to pollution. In the UK, almost 3 billion coffee cups are used each year and thrown away, besides this just one in every 400 of these cups is recycled. On the other hand, a rising effort by the government to ban single-use plastic for cups is also expected to boost segment growth. The European Commission decided to ban single-use plastics in 2022, including bags, cotton buds, cutlery, food containers, drinking cups, wet wipes, and others.
