The growing demand for transparent barrier film is a riving growth in the tubes and cores market. As food manufacturers prefer to use packaging material that can extend the shelf life of their products, transparent barrier films have a large role to play in packing. Moreover, consumer food preferences are changing because of the growing awareness of healthy lifestyles. Demand for high-barrier packaging film, which can prolong food products' shelf life, is increasing due to these changes.
However, the US is expected to be the major growth contributor because of the rising demand for the packaging of snacks, confectionaries, and other products. The use of high barrier properties films is preferred by manufacturers of biscuits in their packaging, as these offer greater resistance to moisture and vapor. The growth in demand for transparent barrier film is expected to increase the requirements of cores as it is used to wrap the transparent barrier film, which, in turn, drives the growth of the market in focus during the forecast period.
The technological advancements are a primary trend in the tubes and cores market. The tube and core markets are changing as a result of technological progress. Automation, robotics, and digitalization are improving manufacturing processes, enhancing efficiency, and reducing production costs. Technological progress also allows the development of innovative tube and core designs, e.g. telescopic Core, Multi-Layered Core, or Composite Core material. Hence, increasing market consolidation will boost market growth during the forecast period.
Moreover, other characteristics are provided by new materials, in order to meet the increased demand for sustainable packaging, manufacturers are also experimenting with ecotoxic materials like Bio-Based Polymers. In addition, the manufacture of tubes and cores is also increasingly incorporating collaborative robots into their production processes. The inclusion of such manufacturing processes, which use the latest technology by vendors in the global tubes and cores market, has led to enhanced efficiency, reduced costs, improved quality, sustained growth, and increased demand for such products. Therefore, such technological advancements will drive the growth of the market in focus during the forecast period.
The high price of kraft papers is a major challenge in the tubes and cores market. In the production of tubes and cores, kraft paper is a key ingredient. Wood pulp is the material used to make these kraft papers. Since 2015, the price of wood pulp has been at its highest level. The growing demand for paper-based packaging products such as corrugated boxes, especially from the e-commerce sector, is increasing the price of wood pulp and kraft paper.
The profit margins for tube and core manufacturers in certain ranges are being hit by the high cost of kraft paper, although the price burden can be transferred to the end users. The full transfer of raw material price burden for tubes and cores manufacturers to the end user could have a negative effect on product demand, which can be reduced with users considering alternatives such as plastic tubes and cores. The tubes and core manufacturers can avoid this risk by investing in proper hedging instruments in the commodity derivative market. These factors hinder the growth of the market in focus during the forecast period.

North America is estimated to contribute 37% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period.
In 2021, the unchanged corporate tax rate in the US compared to 2020 had a positive impact on the various end-user manufacturing industries, including textile and plastic film in the region. The relocation of manufacturing activity to the United States has been proposed by a number of industrial undertakings, which have production sites in relatively cheap countries like Mexico, India, and China. Therefore, end-user industries in the US are expected to become more fragmented than the tubes and cores market, which will increase the demand for tubes and cores.
In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic wreaked havoc across most North American countries such as the US, and Mexico, which resulted in the temporary closure of various industries, including those manufacturing tubes and cores. However, the US government offered stimulus packages for the revival of the economy. The number of COVID-19 cases has fallen due to the lifting of restrictions imposed by the Pandemic Influencing disease throughout the region, thus enabling regional markets to recover their momentum. Further, the demand for tubes and cores has been further stimulated by a return to production in end-user industries like paper and textiles. Increasing e-commerce activities, the growing demand for sustainable packaging solutions, and increasing consumer awareness regarding product safety are expected to fuel the growth of the regional tubes and cores market during the forecast period.
