Packaging in the cosmetic industry has witnessed robust growth in recent years. The cosmetic industry has a varied packaging requirement compared to other sectors.

Key Highlights

  • The materials used include glass, paper, and plastic. These materials are used to make cosmetic packaging products, such as containers and bottles, in various shapes and sizes and dispensing mechanisms.
  • Packaging materials, such as plastic, can be used as primary and secondary packaging solutions, including flexible pouches, caps, closures, and nozzles, the industry's primary packaging materials. Plastic tubes are one of the significant containers in the cosmetic industry as they can store liquid-solid and semisolid materials and dispense products in controlled proportions. Also, compared to other container tubes, it can provide better contamination protection.
  • The cosmetic industry has varied packaging requirements for all the other sectors. The cosmetics industry seems united to decrease the impact of plastic pollution with new packaging strategies and refined formulations. Glass is one of the oldest packaging materials, which is nonporous and impermeable. It does not degrade, providing chemically inert properties. Glass adds to the premium appeal of the products and allows buyers to see the content and its color, thus giving them an idea of what they are getting. This is one of the main reasons why glass is used in cosmetic packaging.
  • The rising consumer spending on grooming and beauty products drives the demand for premium products, augmenting the demand for glass bottles and containers for such product packaging and influencing market growth. Additionally, emerging economies are expected to create a favorable demand for cosmetic products and their packaging. As a result, economies like India and Southeast Asian countries are proving to be lucrative markets for cosmetics packaged in attractive glass packaging.
  • Companies operating in the industry are focused on innovating new products as part of their business expansion. In October 2023, SGD Pharma unveiled its latest glass packaging innovations at the upcoming Luxe Pack Monaco event. These innovations include fragrance mini samplers and the Eclipse refillable glass jar. In addition, SGD Pharma offers the Constellations range of glass packaging solutions, which come in various shapes and are suitable for skin care and nutraceutical applications.
  • Setting up the manufacturing unit for cosmetic packaging is capital-intensive and involves using large furnaces and machines. Cosmetics require an appealing package design that attracts clients and is appealing on-shelf displays. Thus, brands operating within this segment are developing attractive glass packaging solutions to gain customer focus and enhance their business, which adds to design costs.

Cosmetic Packaging Market Trends

Skincare is Expected to Hold Significant Share

  • The demand for skincare products, especially among millennials, is on the rise, driven by various factors such as the desire to delay the signs of aging, increasing awareness of skincare routines, and the influence of social media. This growing demand directly impacts the demand for such products in the market, aiding skincare packaging manufacturing.
  • The younger population focusing on skincare has led to an increased emphasis on developing specialized formulations that cater to their specific needs and preferences. This includes products that incorporate organic and natural ingredients, as millennials prioritize sustainability and clean beauty. Consequently, packaging manufacturers in the skincare industry are investing more in research and development to meet these demands.
  • In addition to health-related concerns, buyers have a growing general environmental awareness. While selecting organic products, people are gravitating toward sustainable glass packaging options over any other material.​
  • In February 2023, Kinder Beauty launched an organic skincare range and introduced three serums in the market. These products, including other chemical-sensitive essential oils, lotions, and creams, must be stored in glass to keep the products fresh and healthy. It does not require any treatment or liners to remain inert. The rising trend of organic skincare products is also expected to fuel demand for glass bottles for safety reasons.
  • Innovative packaging solutions, such as airless pumps and dropper bottles, help preserve products' potency and shelf life while enhancing hygiene. Interactive packaging, like QR codes, allows for virtual product testing and personalized recommendations. There is also a growing focus on sustainability, with options for recyclable plastic or packaging made from sustainable materials like bamboo or biodegradable substances.
  • Skincare spending in all age groups has increased in the recent past. For instance, sales of skincare products in the United States in 2023 were recorded at USD 5.48 billion, which increased from USD 4.1 billion in 2020. The demand for skincare products impacts the market for different formats of cosmetic packaging.


North America is Expected to Record Significant Share

  • The United States is a prominent player in the cosmetic packaging market. The industry comprises major stakeholders crafting different packaging products tailored to cosmetic needs. With the growing urbanization, increasing disposable income, and women’s employment throughout the region, the players operating in the market are expanding their production capacities for cosmetic packaging products.
  • The regulatory requirements outlined by the Cosmetic Regulations in Canada, emphasizing the need for cosmetics to be manufactured and stored under sanitary conditions, play a crucial role in shaping the country’s cosmetic packaging. Adherence to sanitary conditions mandated by regulations ensures that the manufacturing and storage processes meet specific quality and safety standards.
  • As consumers increasingly lean toward premium functional products, there is a parallel demand for packaging that complements the premium nature of these items. Various packaging materials, including glass bottles and containers, plastic tubes, and aerosol cans, with their premium and sophisticated appeal, align well with the image of natural cosmetics. Brands may opt for different packaging materials as per their requirement to convey a sense of luxury and quality, enhancing the overall perceived value of their products.
  • High sales figures in specific cosmetic segments may also encourage innovation in packaging design. Companies invest in creating aesthetically pleasing and functional packaging designs that align with the latest trends and consumer preferences, increasing profit margins. For instance, in 2023, Ulta Beauty in the United States witnessed a gross profit of USD 4.38 billion, which increased from USD 4.04 billion in 2022.
  • Moreover, the growing awareness of environmental concerns among consumers has led to a preference for sustainable packaging options. Glass is a recyclable and eco-friendly material that aligns with the increasing demand for sustainable practices. The higher expenditure on cosmetics and perfumery products may drive a shift toward environmentally friendly packaging solutions, benefiting the market for glass bottles.
