Description

The Global Mono-Material Packaging Market was valued at USD 10.9 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.4% to reach USD 20.2 billion by 2034. This expansion is driven by multiple factors, including the rapid growth of the e-commerce industry and the increasing demand for sustainable packaging solutions from various sectors. The shift towards more environmentally friendly packaging has become a priority for businesses looking to meet global sustainability goals. E-commerce giants are adopting recyclable mono-material packaging solutions to align with evolving regulations and consumer preferences. Furthermore, industries such as food and beverage are increasingly turning to mono-material packaging for its eco-friendly advantages, as consumers and governments push for more sustainable packaging alternatives. Rising awareness of the environmental impact of plastic and regulatory pressure to reduce plastic waste are also contributing to the market’s growth.

Polyethylene (PE)-based mono-material packaging is a leading segment in this market, valued at USD 4.4 billion in 2024. PE is commonly used for flexible packaging solutions such as pouches, sachets, and films. PE-based packaging is favored because it integrates seamlessly with existing recycling systems, making it a popular choice in industries focused on circular economy initiatives. Additionally, innovations in PE high-barrier film technology have enhanced moisture and oxygen protection, allowing PE to replace traditional multi-layered packaging structures. This packaging type is attractive to businesses seeking durable and cost-effective solutions while adhering to sustainability goals. As e-commerce grows, the demand for lightweight, recyclable shipping materials has made PE-based packaging increasingly popular.

The mono-material packaging market is segmented into rigid and flexible packaging. Flexible packaging, valued at USD 6.4 billion in 2024, is growing due to its lightweight and cost-effective nature. Its high recyclability makes it an ideal solution for industries such as food and beverage, personal care, and pharmaceuticals, which are increasingly adopting it to reduce their environmental impact. The e-commerce boom has further driven demand for strong yet lightweight packaging that can minimize shipping costs while offering product protection.

German Mono-Material Packaging Market was valued at USD 788.6 million in 2024, due to increasing regulations around plastic use and rising consumer demand for fully recyclable packaging. The shift towards lightweight, resealable, and flexible solutions is particularly evident in the food and beverage, personal care, and pharmaceutical sectors, propelling further market expansion.

Key players in the Global Mono-Material Packaging Industry include Albea Group, Amcor, Berry Global Group, Borealis, Constantia Flexibles, Coveris Holdings, Dai Nippon Printing, Faerch, Fuji Packaging, Henkel, Hoffmann Neopac, Huhtamaki, Innovia Films, Jindal Films, Klockner Pentaplast, Mondi Group, Saica Group, Sealed Air, Sonoco Products, and Sudpack Verpackungen. To strengthen their market position, companies in the mono-material packaging sector are focusing on expanding their product offerings with innovative and sustainable packaging solutions. Many are investing in advanced materials that enhance the recyclability and durability of packaging, ensuring compliance with growing regulatory standards.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
