The increasing demand for rigid plastic packaging from the healthcare industry is driving growth in the rigid plastic packaging market. The healthcare industry's growth spurs demand for rigid plastic packaging that protects medicines from contamination. Also, packaging used for medical products must be compliant with international regulatory standards for safety.
However, pharmaceutical packaging demand is mainly driven by increased contract manufacturing and the aging population in the APAC region. Therefore, the rising demand for boxes, clamshells, blisters, bottles, containers, ampoules, and vials will drive the growth of the global rigid plastic packaging market during the forecast period.
The use of fiber-based material for packaging is a key trend in rigid plastic packaging. Sustainability is an important consideration for both packaging companies and consumers. The impact of non-recyclable materials on the environment encouraged enterprises in this industry to opt for materials that can be recycled easily and comply with national and international environmental protection guidelines.
Moreover, fiber-based materials are one of the most suitable forms of sustainable packaging material. The paper fiber-based materials used in this product are easily recyclable, allowing enterprises to comply with various countries' regulations. Hence, these features will lead to an increase in the adoption of fiber-based materials for packaging, which, in turn, can affect the global rigid plastic packaging market during the forecast period.

Most manufacturing units producing rigid plastic packaging only use new plastics. Therefore, the recycling of plastics will incur an additional cost to the manufacturers, which is a major challenge for the global rigid plastic packaging market.
