North America Yogurt, Cheese & Meat Form Fill & Seal Packaging Market Growth & Trends

The North America yogurt, cheese, and meat form fill and seal packaging market size is anticipated to reach USD 1.93 billion by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 3.2% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The increasing consumption of yogurt and cheese across North America is the major factor contributing to the market growth. North America is a major producer and consumer of dairy products, including milk, cheese, butter, and yogurt, among other products. For instance, according to the International Dairy Foods Association (IDFA), dairy per capita consumption in North America has been consistently increasing each year across various dairy products, including cheese and yogurt.

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), in 2022, the per capita consumption of dairy products in the U.S. represented a positive trend compared to the past few decades. From 2022, the per capita consumption increased by 0.4% over the past five years, 7.5% over the past 15 years, and 16.1% over the past 30 years. Hence, the increased consumption of dairy products, including yogurt and cheese is estimated to create the need for the subsequent packaging solution, which is required to protect the packaged dairy product from external factors, such as humidity and sunlight. This overall outlook is expected to positively affect the North American yogurt and cheese form fill and seal packaging market.

According to the National Chicken Council (NCC), per capita consumption of poultry in the U.S. is projected to reach 117.9 lbs by 2024 compared to 115.2 lbs in 2022. Hence, the rising consumption of poultry meat is expected to create a need for reliable packaging solutions, which, in turn, is anticipated to drive the demand for meat FFS packaging over the forecast period in North America. This increasing demand for meat is attributable to the country’s economic growth and rising incomes, which allowed more Americans to afford meat, which is generally more expensive than other protein sources such as beans or lentils.

The FFS system helps maintain the quality and shelf life of the meat by minimizing exposure to external factors, such as air, moisture, and contaminants. This hermetic seal not only extends the freshness of the meat product but also enhances its visual appeal on the retail shelf. The precision and efficiency of form fill and seal (FFS) packaging help reduce the risk of contamination during the packaging process, meeting stringent hygiene standards in the food industry. Moreover, the meat FFS packaging system is designed for versatility, accommodating a wide range of meat types, cuts, and sizes. Furthermore, this system ensures a tailored solution for each application, including the packaging of fresh cuts, ground meat, or processed meat products.
