Market outlook of petcare packaging
The global petcare market is witnessing an increase in consumer spending on premium petcare products, including food, supplements, and grooming products. Technavio’s market research analysts project this market to grow steadily and reach a revenue size of close to $10 billion by 2019.
The pet food packaging segment is currently witnessing an increase in the demand for pouch packaging. Pet food manufacturers are constantly looking for lightweight, innovative, and alternative forms of packaging. Traditionally, pet food has been associated with bland, single-item flavors in small jars. This perception is changing over time as vendors of this market have started to offer a range of flavors with innovative pouch packaging. Retail of premium products will significantly boost the demand for packaging products over the next four years.
