Korea's Shift to Sustainable Packaging: Traditionally, grease barriers and moisture barriers constituted a significant portion of the total barrier coated paper used in Korea. However, due to their detrimental environmental effects, paper-based formats with biodegradable barrier coatings are gaining more traction these days.
Premium and Custom Solutions for Eco-packaging: Customized barrier sheets are experiencing a surge in popularity for preventing vapor, fragrance, and mineral-based oil leakage in various premium products. Pharmaceutical companies in Korea have also ramped up their use of barrier coated paper for exporting products to countries that prioritize eco-friendly packaging.
Cosmetic Industry Embraces Green Barrier Solutions: Companies in Korea are introducing innovative materials like barrier bio-waxes, which are primarily adopted for applications outside of food and beverages. In Korea, cosmetics and home care items are increasingly embracing these barrier papers.
Tackling Challenges in Paper Packaging: The porous nature and hydrophilic properties of paper do pose some challenges, especially in packaging applications that require extended storage. Controlling wetting and barrier qualities to prevent fiber swelling is crucial for maintaining the integrity of packaging solutions.
A New Era for Packaging: The emerging trend of internal sizing or treating paper with exterior functional and barrier coatings holds promise in Korea. This approach enhances the quality of barrier coated paper and is anticipated to drive their adoption in the packaging sector.
According to the regional survey, the water-based coating segment is estimated to capture 54.2% of sales in Korea in 2023. Novel bio-based materials, especially water-based coatings, are being prioritized over conventional coating materials. It is projected that the environmentally beneficial features of water-based barrier coatings could drive the segment at a higher CAGR through 2033.
