Pet Product Packaging Innovation

The market for pet product packaging continues to see mid-single digit growth, spurred by sales of pet products themselves and the growing premiumization of those same products. Convenience and sustainability feature prominently as trends in the packaging of pet products across all product categories, but are two factors difficult to reconcile within the same packaging. Consumers want more convenience features, as Packaged Facts Survey of Pet Owners clearly shows, but sustainability issues such as recyclability and packaging reduction are also top of mind. Packaging attractiveness is also extremely important to a small but crucial subset of pet owners, so design refreshes remain an important part of pet product lifecycles, particularly in hypercompetitive categories such as dog treats. Clean labeling trends picked up from human foods are also a key focus for graphics innovations on package.
