Retort pouches are heat-resistant flexible packages used in the packaging of pharmaceutical products and convenient food items. These pouches undergo sterilization at high temperatures to prevent the contents from spoilage. As they are laminated with layers of plastic and lightweight PET films, retort pouches also enhance shelf life, retain flavors for a prolonged time and make the storage and handling of the product convenient.
The Government of India has undertaken numerous initiatives, which have positively influenced the demand for retort pouches. For instance, the 2016 agreement between the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) with the Defense Food Research Laboratory (DFRL) to provide convenient, hygienic and ready-to-eat (RTE) food to the passengers has increased the demand for retort pouches. Moreover, the escalating demand for single-serve food products, on account of hectic lifestyles and the burgeoning foodservice sector, is strengthening the market growth in India. However, the retort pouches market has been adversely affected due to the imposition of lockdown and the ongoing coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic.
