Automatic Blow Moulding Machine Market Report 2026

The automatic blow moulding machine market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $2.05 billion in 2025 to $2.15 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth of plastic packaging demand, expansion of beverage consumption, rise of mass production manufacturing, labor cost optimization needs, demand for consistent product quality.

The automatic blow moulding machine market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.58 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growth of packaged food and beverages, demand for recyclable plastic packaging, adoption of smart factory automation, rising pharmaceutical packaging needs, expansion of consumer goods manufacturing. Major trends in the forecast period include high speed fully automatic production lines, lightweight and thin wall packaging design, multi layer and co extrusion bottles, energy efficient blow moulding systems, customization of bottle shapes and sizes.

The growing demand for sustainable packaging solutions is expected to drive the growth of the automatic blow moulding machine market in the coming years. Sustainable packaging refers to materials and systems designed to reduce environmental impact by using renewable, recyclable, or biodegradable materials, minimizing waste, and promoting efficient resource use. The rise in sustainable packaging is fueled by increasing environmental concerns, efforts to reduce plastic waste, and stricter government regulations. Automatic blow moulding machines support sustainable packaging by minimizing material waste through precise control, enabling the use of recyclable and bio-based plastics, enhancing energy efficiency, and fostering circular economy practices. For example, in January 2023, Protega Global Ltd., a UK-based packaging company, reported that 81% of consumers demand sustainable packaging, with 73% of UK consumers specifically valuing paper or cardboard packaging as a key measure of a brand’s sustainability. Thus, the growing need for sustainable packaging is propelling the growth of the automatic blow moulding machine market.

Leading companies in the automatic blow moulding machine market are focusing on innovative technologies such as all-electric extrusion blow molding systems to improve efficiency and flexibility. An all-electric shuttle extrusion blow molding machine uses electric servo motors to precisely control the extrusion and molding processes, offering better energy efficiency and faster cycle times compared to traditional hydraulic machines. For instance, in June 2024, R&B Plastics Machinery, a US-based blow molder manufacturer, launched the RBS-E550D all-electric shuttle extrusion blow molding machine, which aims to enhance energy efficiency, precision, and production flexibility. This machine features a compact design, tri-layer extrusion capability, individual servo-electric wall thickness controls, and advanced in-machine deflating, providing energy-efficient, precise, and flexible solutions for small- to medium-sized packaging applications. It also includes a servo-electric part takeout system and a touchscreen industrial PC for intuitive operation and reduced manual labor.

In January 2024, Jwell Machinery Co. Ltd., a China-based plastic processing machinery provider, acquired Kautex Maschinenbau GmbH for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition seeks to combine Jwell’s strong manufacturing capabilities with Kautex’s expertise in extrusion blow molding technology to boost global competitiveness and expand product offerings. Kautex Maschinenbau GmbH is a Germany-based manufacturer specializing in automatic blow molding machines, including extrusion and injection blow molding equipment.
