Factors that are driving the demand for hand wrappers include population growth, the developing food and beverage industry, and others. Furthermore, the increased emphasis on packaging to differentiate diverse items in the marketplace is expected to drive demand for hand wrappers.
On the other hand, differentiating food goods through the aesthetic appeal of packaging has become increasingly crucial for food manufacturers as urbanisation and the emergence of supermarkets and hypermarkets have increased. Furthermore, customers are becoming more aware of the components and contents of packages, which is projected to increase demand for hand wrappers.
Aside from that, other technological advancements have been made in response to growing concerns about environmental contamination and stricter regulations on the use of plastics. For instance,
On 18-Mar-2021, EcoStretchTM was introduced by Cortec® Corporation at a critical moment when companies are looking for new packaging choices that satisfy their needs while also reducing their environmental impact.
Thus, this in turn is expected to spur the demand for hand wrappers in near future.
Perishable food goods with limited shelf lives, such as bakery, dairy, and allied items, are vulnerable to pollution, contamination, and climatic fluctuations. As a result, demand for hand wrappers is projected to rise, particularly in the food industry.
Furthermore, manufacturers have adopted a number of initiatives in recognition of the importance of eco-friendly and cost-effective products. For instance,
In June 2020, Amcor partnered with Espoma Organic to develop more sustainable packaging and launch a new bio-based polymer package in response to the brand's mission to "develop the finest organic gardening products that work in harmony with nature, grow beautiful gardens, and make a greener world for the future.
Moreover, shrink wrap has been in high demand from product makers at COVID-19. Shrink wraps are needed for a variety of products, including food & beverage, electronics, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. Due to the inevitable decline of market products as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic's severity, the price of products has skyrocketed.
However, as more consumers have attempted to find items virtually to combat the rising shortage of customers at their physical stores and minimise the spread of illness, the demand for products has increased in an online purchase. As a result of the increased demand for non-perishable commodities as a result of the fear of demand extinction, the need for shrink wraps has increased.
