Green packaging refers to a sustainable packaging solution that utilizes biodegradable materials and energy-efficient manufacturing techniques. Some of the common materials employed for producing green packaging include plant-based plastics, recycled paper, Styrofoam, and re-used polyethylene (PE) bags. It uses alternative, clean-energy sources, such as wind, solar, and biofuel for transportation purposes, thus resulting in reduced environmental impact. As compared to traditionally used synthetic packaging, green packaging limits the generation of packaging waste, thereby lowering the overall carbon footprint.
One of the key factors driving the India green packaging market is the rising consumer awareness toward environmental conservation. This is further supported by several initiatives launched by the Government of India (GoI) to promote the usage of eco-friendly packaging materials. Additionally, the widespread adoption of green packaging solutions in various end-use industries, especially the food and beverage (F&B) industry, is also supporting the market growth in the country. Rapid urbanization and rising economic development in India have led to the incorporation of advanced packaging technologies, which are positively influencing the green packaging market in the country.
