The competitive environment in the market is likely to intensify further due to the increasing number of expansions.

Porter’s Five Forces Model

Michael Porter’s Five Forces model is a framework to study the global airless packaging market. Strategic business managers, trying to gain an edge over competitive firms in the global airless packaging market, can utilize this model to better comprehend the industry, in which the company operates. The components of each of the forces and the degree of impact of each force in the context of the global airless packaging market have been broken down and analysed.

Threat of New Entrants

The requirement of a vast customer base, high engineering expertise, and moderate investments to set up production facilities along with the stringent regulatory compliance, restrict the entry of new players in the global airless packaging market. Furthermore, the established players, unlike the new players can afford advanced manufacturing technologies. Furthermore, in regions such as North America and Europe, stringent government regulations regarding the manufacturing process due to the chemical content and environmental impact of using particular packaging materials leads to an increase in direct and indirect costs associated with regulatory compliance, which reduces the threat of new entrants. Thus, threat of new entrants in the global airless packaging market is expected to be low.

Bargaining Power of Suppliers

Airless packaging manufacturing involves the use of various raw materials. The raw materials primarily include plastic, glass, metal, and acrylic. The requirement for raw materials is high in the production of airless packaging with the presence of a large number of suppliers, which decreases the bargaining power of suppliers. Although the differentiation between the raw materials is low, the airless packaging manufacturing companies cannot easily switch between suppliers due to their long-term associations with the suppliers. Thus, the bargaining power of suppliers in airless packaging market is moderate.

Bargaining Power of Buyers

The primary buyers of airless packaging are the manufacturers of personal & beauty products, pharmaceutical drugs, such as antibodies, therapeutic proteins, vaccines, tissues, allergenics, somatic cells. The concentration of buyers is moderate. The differentiation between the products of various providers is moderate, such companies purchase airless packaging products in bulk, which leads to an increase in their bargaining power. The cost of switching between airless packaging product manufacturers is high due to the long-term contacts between them and the buyers, which reduces the bargaining power of buyers. Thus, the bargaining power of buyers in the market is expected to be moderate.

Threat of Substitutes

There are no direct substitutes for airless packaging as airless packaging products play an important role in the packaging of airless products. Hence, the threat of substitutes in the global airless packaging market is expected to be low.

Rivalry

The key players operating in the airless packaging market are working on offering their products at competitive prices while ensuring on-time delivery. The market is fragmented with several players. The key players strategize to make significant investments in developing innovative products and acquisitions to have an edge over their peers.

Analytics

Airless Packaging Market — Key Findings

Analytical insights on Airless Packaging Market covering market dynamics, competitive landscape, and strategic outlook.

Key Analytical Findings

The Airless Packaging Market market is projected to reach $5.66B by 2025, growing at 4.4% CAGR. The Plastic segment holds the largest share.

Market Drivers

The global airless packaging market is expected to witness sustainable growth in the next five years. The demand for airless packaging is poised to be driven by judicious consumption and reduced wastage of products. However, the fluctuating raw material prices acts as a restraint for the market.

Market Opportunities

Developing countries such as India, Brazil, and Indonesia have witnessed increased demand for packaged and processed food and beverages. The consumption patterns have changed throughout the years due to positive economic indicators such as per capita disposable income, changing lifestyles, growing working women population, and an increased number of retail outlets. This is expected to enhance the growth of the packaging industry, leading to the use of airless packaging in food and beverages.

According to the India Brand Equity Foundation, the food industry in developing countries is growing at a rapid rate. For instance, the fast-moving consumer goods industry in India generated USD 49 billion revenue in 2016, primarily due to the liberalized foreign direct investment (FDI) policies, strong macro-economic indicators, and economic and industrial reforms, leading to the growth of the food production and processing industries.

A significant portion of the FMCG sector is comprised primarily of food and beverage products, including processed foods, such as breakfast cereal, packaged beverages, coffee, tea, sugar, and beans. The increasing demand for airless packaging products to protect food against damage or contamination by micro-organisms, air, moisture, and toxins and prevent spilling or leaking are the factors driving the adoption of airless packaging in the food & beverage industry.

The growth of the food & beverage industry in the developing regions is high. The increasing awareness and availability of processed food and the growing middle-class population are expected to drive the demand for airless packaging in developing countries during the forecast period.

Market Restraints

The materials commonly used in airless packaging are plastic, polymer, polystyrene, glass, paper, and aluminum. The prices of these raw materials are highly dependent on the availability, global and local demand and supply trends, and government regulations. The prices of polymer and aluminum are highly volatile, which would eventually affect the packaging cost. Furthermore, due to this fluctuation, the financial performance of the company can adversely be affected.

Along with this, polystyrene is the primary raw material used as an insulating material in temperature-controlled packaging solutions for pharmaceutical products. The increased gap between demand and supply has increased the price of polystyrene, which is expected to continue during the forecast period. The figure below offers information on the price fluctuation of polystyrene between 2013 and 2018–

An increase in raw material costs would raise the manufacturing and distribution cost, leading to high prices of the airless packaging products. As a result, the rising cost of polystyrene and other raw materials might hamper the growth of the global airless packaging market during the forecast period.

However, since the prices of the raw materials have witnessed limited fluctuation, there will not be a lot of variation in the demand and supply cycle of airless packaging products. Hence, the impact of fluctuating raw material prices on the global airless packaging market is expected to remain moderate throughout the forecast period.

Strategic Outlook and Future Directions

Near-term growth will likely concentrate in modular bioreactor lines and closed-system media workflows that shorten validation cycles while preserving batch traceability.

Partnerships between CDMOs and instrumentation vendors should accelerate standard datasets for comparability across sites, improving forecasting models used in capacity planning.

Longer horizon, organoid and microphysiological adoption may reshape segment mix; teams that invest early in assay interoperability and cloud QC hooks are better positioned to capture upside without fragmenting their analytics stack.
