In 2024, Switzerland recorded a decline in total dairy packaging volumes, which fell slightly to 2.6 billion units. This downturn was attributed to several factors, including supply chain challenges, shifting consumer behaviour and increasing competition from plant-based alternatives. Manufacturers were forced to reduce or optimise packaging due to rising material and energy costs, as well as shortages of plastics and glass, resulting in falling total packaging volumes.
