Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
One of the key factors driving the cannabis packaging market growth is the growing millennial purchasing power in the cannabis industry. There is a growing interest among millennials in cannabis and have been significant drivers behind the increasing acceptance and legalization of cannabis in many jurisdictions. In addition, the growing preference and changing attitudes towards cannabis have fuelled the growth in the demand for legal cannabis.
Moreover, it is expected that the increasing purchasing power of the millennials will fuel the demand for legal cannabis among this demographic. In addition. there is a growing trend among millennials experimenting with new products and experiences such as cannabis. Additionally, the cultural shifts surrounding cannabis, such as its use for wellness, relaxation, and socializing are positively impacting the market. Hence, such factors are expected to drive market growth during the forecast period.
A key factor shaping the cannabis packaging market growth is the emergence of smart packaging of cannabis. The main advantages of smart packaging are that it offers extra information to consumers, regulates temperature, offers protection against theft, and enables manufacturers and retailers to track their products during transit. Additionally, smart packaging helps in increasing the shelf life of a product with the use of indicators and sensors.
Moreover, there is a significant introduction of smart packaging solutions in the global cannabis packaging market. Smart rigid plastic packaging plays a crucial role in offering product information using Quick Response (QR) code. Additionally, this type of packaging enhances the customer experience with the incorporation of several technologies, such as QR codes, near-field communication (NFC), radio-frequency identification (RFID), and embedded barcodes. Hence, such factors are expected to drive market growth during the forecast period.
Fluctuations in raw material prices of cannabis packaging are one of the key challenges hindering the cannabis packaging market growth. Some of the key raw materials required for the manufacturing containers include Sand, soda ash, and plastic. As a result, any fluctuations in the availability of these raw materials significantly impact their overall prices. In addition, the rise in price of a particular raw material can boost the overall price of the end product.
Moreover, one of the main raw materials that accounts for more than 50% of the total cost of raw materials in the manufacture of glass containers is the price of soda ash. Therefore, in order to compensate for the higher costs incurred on raw materials, container manufacturers are forced to increase the price of the end-products. Hence, such factors are negatively impacting the market. Therefore, it is expected to hinder the market growth during the forecast period.

Packaging plays a crucial role in the preservation of cannabis. The main advantage of the glass segment is that it is an impermeable material that keeps air and other liquids out, which means that glass bottles never affect the flavor or freshness of the product.

The glass segment was the largest segment and was valued at USD 306.30 million in 2017. Furthermore, the main advantage of this segment is that the external temperatures, such as heat, do not affect the material or shape of the glass, unlike plastics, which could melt and affect the product quality. As a result, cannabis is preserved properly and safely when packaged in glass containers. In addition, the main feature of the glass segment is that it helps to maintain the internal temperature of the bottle, thereby maintaining the quality of the product inside the glass bottle. Furthermore, this segment is one of the safest packaging materials for consumable products as it is non-toxic and does not require any other material lining. Hence, such factors are expected to fuel the growth of this segment which in turn will drive the market growth during the forecast period.
