UNITED STATESThe personal care market is estimated to be $4 to $5.1 billion.

GLOBALLYThe personal care packaging market is expected to increase with an estimated annual growth rate of 5.5% over the next five years, reaching up to $38.1 billion by 2019.

SUSTAINABILITYUsing less packaging material overall and finding biodegradable alternatives (e.g., plant-based resins) to standard plastic is a priority.

CONSUMER NEEDS AND EXPECTATIONSProducts of “convenience” such as smaller/portable packages, small toothbrushes, makeup remover wipes, dry shampoo, and instant hand sanitizers are surging.

FLEXIBILITYVarious product packaging styles requires equipment flexibility and the ability change to a different setting quickly and easily.

GLOBALIZATIONGrowth in well-developed markets, such as North America, Europe, and Japan are expected to increase at a slower than average rate, while developing markets, such as Asia Pacific and Latin America are expected to increase at a faster rate. As the middle class grows in developing countries, consumers have more disposable income, leading to an increased demand for personal care products.

INNOVATIONNew levels of automation that can keep overall production costs low and an increased usage of smart technology on basic equipment are seen as an industry need.

Recyclability and reusability of packaging are major trends; in fact, conservation efforts are now a key marketing component.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNSThe growing middle class in many regions around the world, especially Asia Pacific and Latin America, is leading to larger disposable incomes. In turn, more consumers are purchasing packaged goods from modern retail locations.

RISE OF THE MIDDLE CLASSConsumers are more inclined to purchase products that are good for their health. Bottled water, yogurt and sour milk drinks, and RTD tea have experienced large growth as a result.

Flexible plastic remains the dominant pack type, while PET bottles will register the highest growth rate over the next five years.
