Monomaterial Packaging Market Introduction and Overview

According to SPER Market Research, the Global Monomaterial Packaging Market is estimated to reach USD 9.3 billion by 2034 with a CAGR 8.3%.

The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Global Monomaterial Packaging Market, including market size and trends, product mix, Applications, and supplier analysis. The global Monomaterial Packaging Market was valued at USD 4.19 billion in 2024 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 8.3% from 2025 to 2034. The monomaterial packaging market is set to grow, driven by sustainability concerns, regulatory pressures, and technological advancements. Rising consumer demand for recyclable packaging, stricter EPR policies, and bans on single-use plastics are encouraging brands to adopt eco-friendly solutions. The expansion of e-commerce further boosts demand for recyclable, adaptable options. Leading companies such as Unilever, Nestlé, and P&G continue investing to meet sustainability targets. Cost savings from recycling and local sourcing, along with advances in coatings and processing, strengthen adoption. Global regulations like the EU's PPWR and U.S. Plastics Pact, combined with improved recycling methods, position monomaterial packaging as a key circular economy solution.

Monomaterial Packaging Market

By Type:

Polyethylene emerged as the leading material in monomaterial packaging and is expected to witness steady growth, driven by rising demand for sustainable and recyclable solutions across food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and personal care industries. Favorable government initiatives and stricter EPR regulations are pushing manufacturers to adopt PE-based designs, which are easier to recycle than multi-material options. Similarly, polyethylene terephthalate nanomaterials are gaining traction as demand increases for recyclable, high-performance packaging. Expanding beverage consumption, growing adoption of PET bottles, advances in chemical recycling, and heightened consumer awareness are further supporting market expansion.

By End Use:

The food and beverage industry leads the monomaterial packaging market, driven by the growing need for sustainable, recyclable, and food-safe solutions. Stricter regulations, including EPR policies and packaging waste reduction mandates, are encouraging brands to adopt recyclable monomaterial designs that align with circular economy goals. Innovations in barrier coatings and advanced PE, PP, and PET films are improving protection against moisture, oxygen, and light, ensuring product freshness and longer shelf life. In personal care and cosmetics, rising consumer demand for eco-friendly, refillable, and biodegradable options, supported by government regulations, is fueling adoption.

Regional Insights:

North America's monomaterial packaging market is set for strong growth, supported by stricter sustainability regulations, rising consumer demand for recyclable packaging, and innovations in material science. Programs such as the U.S. Plastics Pact, Canada's Zero Plastic Waste Initiative, and EPR policies are encouraging brands to shift toward fully recyclable solutions. In the U.S., advancements in recycling technologies and corporate investments from companies like PepsiCo, Coca-Cola, Unilever, and Procter & Gamble are driving adoption of high-barrier films, recyclable pouches, and PET bottles. In Asia Pacific, growth is fueled by stricter plastic waste regulations, EPR mandates, and increasing environmental awareness across major economies.

Market Competitive Landscape:

The Monomaterial Packaging Market is highly consolidated. Some of the market key players are Amcor Plc, Berry Global Group, Mondi Group, Sealed Air Corporation, Sonoco Products Company, Constantia Flexibles, ProAmpac, Borouge, Smurfit Kappa Group, TOPPAN Inc.

Recent Developments:

In January 2024, Mars China launched its Snickers bar in a new monomaterial flexible packaging format, designed under the “Designed for Recycling” concept to ensure easy recyclability through designated channels. The packaging was developed to provide improved recyclable, reusable, and compostable features, helping reduce waste and support sustainability goals.
In November 2023, Mondi partnered with Skånemejerier to develop mono-material polypropylene packaging for ICA's Hushållsost cheese. The solution includes a PP base web and lidding film produced and printed by Mondi, later converted by Skånemejerier for 1kg and 2kg cheese blocks.

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.
