Historic Market Outlook for Vacuum Packaging Market

The vacuum packaging market noticed a CAGR of 4.1% during the historic period and reached US$ 7.1 Bn in 2021.

Vacuum packaging is a form of packaging that removes the air around the food non-food products and seals the product in waterproof containers that are used to pack and store the products. Vacuum packaging primarily functions by minimizing the oxygen levels in the package thus reducing the oxygen degradation of products and enhancing the overall quality of the product.

Vacuum packaging commonly consists of pouches bags or films which are sometimes lidded over thermoformed trays in order to facilitate better product presentation. With the increased need for prolonged shelf-life and enhanced quality, the demand for vacuum packaging augmented. Also, vacuum packaging offers a sealed barrier against external factors which gains traction among the food industries. It eliminates the use of chemical preservations which keeps the food or the product natural. Overall, the demand for vacuum packaging is projected to bolster during the forecast period.

How does the Preference for Pro-longed Shelf-life Drive the Demand for Vacuum Packaging?

The prolonged shelf-life of the items is one of the main elements boosting the sales of vacuum packaging in the market. In terms of extending the shelf life of food products, vacuum packaging performs better than MAP. If not consumed within a month of packaging, a sizable percentage of packaged goods, such as candy, meat, and other dairy products, are wasted globally, resulting in financial loss.

Retailers and suppliers favor packaging options that guarantee long shelf life. Additionally, this enables vendors to extend the transit time for packaged goods, improving their ability to export and expanding their global operations. As a result, vacuum packaging is quickly becoming one of the most popular methods for storing food.
