Factors Developing the Global Chocolate Wrapping Films Market

Increasing Demand for Premium Chocolates to Benefit the Market

Due to which vendors are innovating premium cardboard-based luxury packaging solutions, increasing demand for premium chocolates across the globe is expected to benefit the market in the forecast period.

The manufacturers are presenting premium chocolates as well as premium chocolate packaging as gifting options that attract consumers due to the exclusiveness of the packaging, thereby fostering the demand for premium and luxury packaging. Unique consumption experiences are increasing the demand for these chocolates, especially in the festive season, and keeping consumers returning for more.

For instance, in 2016, Nestle, maker of Maggi noodles and Kit Kat bars, plans to challenge Ferrero and Mondelez in the premium chocolate market in India by launching pricier variants and brands from its global portfolio.

Factors Hampering the Global Chocolate Wrapping Films Market

Increase in Raw Material Prices to Hamper the Chocolate Wrapping Films Market

The increasing cost of raw materials for chocolate packaging is expected to hamper the market growth in the forecast period. An increase in the price of propylene is likely to impact plastic packaging prices, which is increasing the overall cost of chocolate packaging globally.

This price rise is because of increasing demand and inefficient material supply, which is projected to grow in the forecast period. Along with this, aluminum prices are expected to rise in the forecast period. Moreover, an increase in the paper price is resulting in an increased price of cardboard, which is likely to impact the global chocolate packaging market directly.
