Pharmaceutical Packaging Market Worth Over $89.5 Billion In 2017

LONDON - Oct. 3, 2017 - PRLog -- Visiongain's new report Pharmaceutical Packaging Market Report 2017-2027: Global Forecasts by Material (Flexible Plastic, Rigid Plastic, Glass, Metal, Paper, Other), Product (Plastic Bottles, Blister Packs, Caps & Closures, Medical Specialty Bags Pre-Filled Syringes, Trays, Pouches, Parenteral Vials & Ampoules, Pre-Fillable Inhalers, Medication Tubes, Other) Delivery System (Intravenous, Inhalation, Oral, Transdermal, Other) and Geography indicates that the pharmaceutical packaging market will see over $89.5bn in revenue in 2017.

The lead analyst of the report said: "Given the active nature of pharmaceutical ingredients, proper pharmaceutical packaging is essential to maintain the integrity of the product. Pharmaceutical packaging contains and protects the pharmaceutical products. The packaging must protect the medical products against all potential adverse external influences such as moisture and oxygen, while ensuring that no interaction between pharmaceutical products and the packaging materials will occur. The ageing global population, expanding generics market, increasing demand for anti-counterfeiting, and, for more sophisticated packaging are some of the factors driving the pharmaceutical packaging market.

However, the market faces challenges. Unlike most other packaging, pharmaceutical packaging puts less emphasis on the presentation aspect, as non-over-the-counter (OTC) medicines do not need consumers' attention in general. Many governments, especially those of developed countries, are cutting healthcare expenditure, putting price pressures on pharmaceutical packaging. In developing economies, where the pharmaceutical packaging industry has a better growth outlook, counterfeiting is a more serious problem."
