The polypropylene segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period in the fresh food packaging market

The polypropylene segment accounted for the largest share and is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This is attributed to its wide application in meat products, vegetables, seafood, and fruits among others.

Polypropylene (PP) has a clear, glossy film with high strength and puncture resistance. This material is not affected by changes in humidity. It has moderate permeability to gases and odors and a higher barrier to water vapor. These properties enable the use of polypropylene in the production of a wide variety of food & beverage packaging solutions.

The converted roll stock segment is expected to account for the largest share in the fresh food packaging market

Converted roll stock is the most common pack type used in fresh food packaging. It provides a faster packaging process as more packages are produced per minute using roll stock on a form-fill-seal machine compared to other packaging methods. Converted roll stock reduces the cost of packaging due to the form-fill-seal machines that make bags in line continuously and reduce waste as well. It is suitable for aseptic processing as the materials can be sterilized more easily through a peroxide bath.

The meat products segment is expected to account for the largest share in the fresh food packaging market

Meat products are the largest and fastest-growing application in terms of both value and volume. The growing disposable incomes have fueled the demand for convenience food items, which is, in turn, driving the fresh food packaging market. The increasing awareness regarding the nutritional value of meat products and changing eating habits are also boosting the demand for fresh food packaging.

APAC is expected to be the largest fresh food packaging market during the forecast period, in terms of volume

China, India, and Australia are the major countries contributing to the fresh food packaging market in APAC. The growth is driven by factors such as increase in demand for convenience by consumers and concerns about food product safety are some of the major reasons that could drive the fresh food packaging market in the region. The presence of many small and medium fresh food packaging manufacturers has also contributed to the growth of the fresh food packaging market in this region.
