Post-consumer recycled packaging refers to reprocessed material made from sources that consumers recycle on a daily basis, which includes items such as aluminum, cardboard, paper, and plastics. As major brands are increasing their efforts to propel sustainability, PCR packaging is gaining traction. These materials are widely used in the packaging of goods, including coffee, pharmaceuticals, pet products, baked goods, snacks, and sports nutrition. Flat pouches, rollstocks, and stand-up pouches are some common examples of products of PCR packaging. Growing consumer and manufacturer awareness about diverse recycling practices and the environmental significance of recycling has propelled the demand for sustainable PCR packaging materials. The burgeoning food and pharmaceutical industry has necessitated rampant production of plastics for efficient and eco-friendly packaging of products made by these industries. However, manufacturing and technical complications associated with the production of post-consumer recycled plastics and packaging design complexity pose significant issues for manufacturers. Additionally, stringent regulations regarding recovery, recycling, and thickness of recycled bags and packaging dissuade investments in the sector. Government initiatives to promote recycling activities can overcome concerns raised by regulatory challenges. Efforts by major manufacturers to invest in the utilization of AI for waste management and the development of recycled plastics have significantly expanded the scope of the industry and enhanced the efficiency of recycling processes.
Regional Insights
Countries in the Americas region, such as the USA and Brazil, are increasing investments and efforts to expand and improve recycling practices. Governmental initiatives and the presence of grants to support the recycling of plastics are observed in this region. The prevalence of well-established regulations and labeling standards and partnerships between major companies to propel eco-friendly and sustainability agendas is responsible for the large scope of the industry. Countries such as China and India are some of the largest consumers and producers of plastics, and the governments in these countries are implementing regulations to govern the recycling of plastics. Manufacturers of confectionery and pharmaceuticals are launching products packed in post-consumer recycled PET. The UK, Germany, Norway, and Switzerland have robust waste management systems that have allowed easy collection and recycling of plastics. The presence of consistent collection schemes has stimulated household recycling of common products such as bottles and utensils. Post-consumer and post-industrial waste generated in European nations is utilized by end-use industries such as the construction, packaging, agriculture, automotive, and electrical industries.FPNV Positioning Matrix
