Overview of the global skin packaging market
Technavio’s market research analyst predicts the global skin packaging market to grow steadily at a CAGR of around 6% by 2021. One of the major drivers for this market is the rising demand for increased shelf life of food products. Packed products such as meat, bakery, confectionery, and dairy products are wasted if they are not sold after a month of their packaging and leads to financial losses for the retailers. To overcome this obstacle, vendors adopt active packaging that increases the shelf life and retains the quality of the packaged foods. Skin packaging is used to seal products such as meat tightly. Meat portions are sealed between a base film and a heat-softened top film, which is vacuum drawn onto the meat surface to give a skin-tight pack. Moreover, the advantage of skin packaging to ensure attractive vertical and horizontal display of the packaged products by hanging methods will propel the market growth of global skin packaging market during the forecast period.
One of the latest trends gaining traction in this market is the rapidly growing shift for modified atmospheric packaging (MAP) to vacuum skin packaging. Growing consumption of ready-to-eat food products has led to the rising demand for packaging technologies that can extend the shelf life of products. The oxygen level inside packaging varies with the content and quantity of products. A rise in the oxygen level can result in the oxidation of fats and oils. Also, the capability of vacuum skin packaging to enhance shelf space efficiency of products, thereby providing maximum protection to goods during transit and in the store is supporting the growth of the skin packaging market.
