They are also developing eco-friendly and sustainable packaging solutions that reduce toxic waste, conserve natural resources, and minimize plastic pollution.

Additionally, several key players are adopting merger and acquisition (M&A) strategies to expand their manufacturing capabilities, product portfolio, and geographical footprint. Furthermore, the emergence of heat-resistant packaging material, the rising usage of new filling technologies, and extensive investments in research and development (R&D) activities are some of the other factors anticipated to propel the market growth.
