The rapid growth of e-commerce is the key factor driving the growth of the market. The e-commerce industry in APAC is progressing quickly, due to factors such as the rising tech-savvy population, advancing Internet penetration, and the growing use of smartphones. The presence of multiple payment options, such as credit and debit cards, Internet banking, electronic wallets, and COD, has led to a paradigm shift in the purchasing patterns of people, from brick-and-mortar stores to online shopping. The growth of the e-commerce sector directly impacts the APAC - returnable transport packaging (RTP) market.
In addition, consumers are buying various products, such as food and beverages, electronics, personal care products, and healthcare products, from e-commerce sites, all of which require different types of packaging, based on the type of product. The increase in the transportation of goods and services due to the rising e-commerce sales is a significant factor that will significantly drive the market growth during the forecast period.
Increasing focus on return on investment is the primary trend shaping market growth. The return on investment is directly proportionate to the frequency of reuse over the prolonged life of the packaging product. The main cost-saving part is eliminating the buying and disposal costs of one-time or limited-use packaging. Secondary savings opportunities include reduced product damage costs and lower shipping costs.
The cost per trip associated with returnable transport packaging is lower than one-way transport packaging as the former is reusable. However, plastic containers can be used ten times more than disposable containers. Hence, the higher utility rate is bringing a fast return on investment for Asia-Pacific (APAC) - returnable transport packaging market players. Thus, such factors will drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Availability of used returnable transport packaging products is a challenge that affects market growth. Despite the presence of different driving factors, such as rising e-commerce and retail sales, the APAC - returnable transport packaging (RTP) market is expected to witness a moderate growth rate due to the considerable impact of the secondary market. The secondary market or used returnable transport packaging market is quite established, mainly in developing regions such as APAC and the Middle East. Thus, the secondary returnable transport packaging market is expected to affect the demand for newly manufactured products in the APAC.
Furthermore, the demand for used returnable transport packaging products in APAC is expected to come from the unorganized retail sector. In addition, the unorganized Asia-Pacific (APAC) - returnable transport packaging market players would prefer cost-efficient material handling equipment over expensive newly manufactured equipment to have financial stability in their business. Hence, the availability of used returnable transport packaging products will negatively impact the market in focus during the forecast period.
