The global baby food packaging market size is expected to reach USD 10.79 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 4.2% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Growing demand for baby food products as a result of increasing number of working individuals is expected to remain a prominent growth-driving factor. Furthermore, increasing number of nuclear families in developing countries including Mexico, Brazil, China, and India is expected to have a positive impact on the market.
Rising usage of paperboards and rigid plastic as alternative packaging materials to the conventional glass and metal is expected to drive these product segments over the forecast period. In addition, these materials are easy to carry as they are lightweight, durable, and reusable and offer longer product shelf life. Companies in the market are focusing on the development of better alternatives than plastic packaging. For instance, Square Baby Food launched recyclable cold chain packaging products in September 2018. Plum Organics launched baby bowl packaging product in November 2017.
