Vertical FFS equipment segment accounted for the largest market share in 2022
The vertical FFS equipment segment accounted for the largest market share in 2022 and is likely to retain its market position throughout the forecast period due to its numerous beneficial features, including speed, versatility, low operating cost, and smaller footprint, which makes them capable of producing a wide range of bag shapes through changing forming shoulders and forming tubes.
The horizontal FFS equipment segment is likely to gain a steady growth rate over the coming years on account of its growing use to pack a wide array of products with the help of the technology along with the rising prevalence to be used in applications where the product orientation, breakage, or stacking is critical. The exponential growth in the demand for food & confectionery products globally, with the drastic increase in the global population, is further anticipated to create demand in the market, as these products are commonly packed using horizontal machines.
Bags & trays segment is expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period
The bags & trays segment is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the anticipated period, which is mainly driven by a substantial rise in the need and use in packaging of several types of food products like yogurts, fresh, cooked, frozen meats, cheese, bacon, and single-serve jams. Additionally, with the busy lifestyles of consumers, there is a growing demand for easy-to-use and convenient packaging options, such as cups and trays, for on-the-go consumption of food and beverages.
The bags & pouches segment led the industry market with significant revenue share in 2022, mainly due to its ability to offer a convenient and cost-effective alternative to traditional packaging methods such as boxes and cans. Automation and technological advancements in form fill and sealing equipment have also made it possible to produce bags and pouches faster with greater accuracy and efficiency, along with minimal human intervention, which has increased productivity and reduced manufacturing costs.
Food & beverages segment held a significant share in 2022
The food & beverages segment held a significant market share in terms of revenue in 2022, which is highly attributable to the increasing prevalence and popularity of ready-to-eat food products and the emerging trend of single-serve bag sizes and smaller portions all over the world coupled with the drastic growth in consumption of healthy & organic beverages due to increasing consumer inclination towards consuming beverages daily.
The pharmaceuticals segment is likely to exhibit the fastest growth rate over the study period, mainly driven by numerous factors, including a constant increase in the aging population and awareness regarding several types of diseases and their adverse effects on humans. Moreover, with the introduction of many packaging styles across the personal care industry, companies opt for these unique styles and technologies to gain a competitive edge.
Asia Pacific region dominated the global market in 2022
The Asia Pacific region dominated the global market with a substantial share in 2022 and is anticipated to maintain its dominance throughout the projected period. Consumers in the APAC region are becoming increasingly aware of environmental issues and are demanding more sustainable packaging options, which has increased demand for form fill and sealing equipment that can produce biodegradable or recyclable packaging materials. Moreover, the increasing rate of urbanization and rapid increase in the population demanding ready-to-eat meals and convenience food products is also likely to boost the demand and growth of the market across the region.
For instance, according to the United Nations-Habitat’s World Cities Report 2022, the urban population in India is likely to stand at approx. 675 million by 2035, which will be the second highest after China’s one billion, and around 43.2% of Indian residents will be living in cities by 2035.
The North American region is likely the fastest-growing region, with a healthy CAGR over the projected period. The regional market growth can be largely attributed to the growing penetration and prevalence of consumer-friendly & sustainable packaging, and significant advancements in technology coupled with the presence of several government regulations and policies aimed at ensuring food safety and hygiene are also driving the demand for form-fill and sealing equipment in the region.
