Market Dynamics:
PVC packaging requires less fuel to produce as compared to that of other packaging materials
such as metal and glass. According to Plastics Europe, the energy required for PET (polyethylene
terephthalate) and HDPE (high density polyethylene) was 82.7 GJ (gigajoule) per ton and 76.7
GJ per ton whereas, for PVC was 56.7 GJ per ton. Furthermore, it also protects against
contamination by helping to prevent the spread of germs during manufacturing and distribution.
These factors are propelling the PVC packaging materials market growth.
Growing demand from processed food is also expected to drive growth of PVC packaging
market. This is owing to high use of PVC packaging in processed foods, due to its
