India’s Liquid Packaging Market has been gaining good momentum in the last four years due to the rapid growth in the consumer market, especially in Food and Beverages, Pharma, Liquor, Personal Care, and Household Care.

Based on Ken Research’s study on the Liquid Packaging sector of India, a shift towards sustainable packaging is expected to rise in the coming years. Here is a glimpse of how the material used for packaging, polymers will become the new normal in the packaging segment over the next few years.

1.  The Indian liquid packaging market is over 37K crore industry registering growth of 7% in last 3 years

2.  Players enjoy the freedom of switching the packaging materials of their products due to the variation in the price per unit

Pricing analysis between different packaging materials

• From a pricing/cost aspect, glass and metal cans can be easily considered by the customers to be substitutable/interchangeable. For instance, the cost of procuring glass packaging materials for packaging 200 ML of Thums Up by Coca-Cola stands at around INR 8. While the cost of procuring metal cans for packaging 200 ML of soft drinks by Coca-Cola stands at around INR 10. Thus, there is no significant difference from a pricing standpoint for companies like Coca-Cola that sells liquid in different packaging materials (glass, PET, metal).
• In fact, the price of PET bottles is much cheaper than that of glass bottles and is sold at around INR 3.5 per bottle. Thus, companies enjoy the liberty to switch between suppliers based on their requirement for packaging materials.

To improve hygiene, construction companies are increasingly using antimicrobial additives in plastic pipes. Concerns are growing about the consumption of drinking water delivered via PVC and PEX pipes used in residential and commercial buildings. The main concerns are the leaching of chemicals, which can give water a plastic taste, as well as the leaching of bacteria, which can inhibit the growth of waterborne diseases. Antimicrobial additives prevent chemical leakage into the drinking water supply and inhibit the growth of major waterborne disease sources such as harmful bacteria, fungi, mould, and algae. Polypipe, Parx Plastics N.V., and Polyone are among the major manufacturers of antimicrobial additives for plastic products.

Global Pharmacy Retail Market is standing strong at $ 600 Billion in 2022– Will it be able to achieve the trillion-dollar mark by 2027?: Ken Research

 The global Pharmacy Retail market was valued at USD 600 Bn in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 1 trillion by 2027.  

The COVID-19 pandemic has fueled growth in both traditional pharmacy retail outlets and online pharmacy channels. Medical retail outlets were classified as essential services globally, but due to the virus's fear, online pharmacies emerged as the most dynamic channel for obtaining drugs and devices. The online pharmacy sector has seen an increase in orders for medical devices, personal protective equipment, health supplements, and common drugs as a result of the various waves of COVID-19.

1. People aged 65+ are projected to grow to nearly 1 billion in 2030, with most of the increase in developing countries, which will drive retail pharmacy growth

According to the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, the first Baby Boomers (those born between 1946 and 1964) turned 65 in 2011. By 2030, it is projected that more than 60% of this generation will be managing more than 1 chronic condition. Managing these chronic conditions, along with a patient’s level of disability, will increase the financial demands on our healthcare system which will increase the stress on the pharmacy chain industries.

2. With the increasing population growth in Tier II and Tier III cities, there is an untapped potential for retail pharmacies in their market

Visit This link:- Request for Custom Report

E-Pharmacies still have a lot of scope for expansion in tier II and III cities, that can be achieved by making huge investments for the improvement of logistics channels in these cities. Presently, close to 55% of the global population today is living in tier-2 & tier-3 cities. In such areas, the local pharmacy becomes the go-to place for all healthcare services. Furthermore, statistics show that for every 1000 people, there is 0.83 pharmacist available. Since many doctors are not able to reach people living in tier-2 & tier-3 cities, local pharmacies can become huge healthcare support by going online and providing quick, trusted, & efficient healthcare solutions.

3. Digiceutical Apps Also known as “digital therapeutics” are Improving patient outcomes through convergence

In 2018, there was a massive growth in investment in the field of digital therapeutics, and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has actually been on board with the trend for quite some time as well. In late 2017, they launched a digital health pilot program, which included 9 companies. Among the participants were the big guys like Apple, Samsung, and Johnson and Johnson, yet small-but-mighty startups were also included. One such startup is Pear Therapeutics, which has already received FDA approval for two of its app products; one for substance abuse, and the other specifically for opioid use. The goal of the program is to soften the regulatory requirements for digital health companies with proven records of developing and testing quality products.

4. Huge E-commerce websites like Amazon are becoming a threat to other pharmacies’ retail stores worldwide

The company is a threat to retail pharmacies on multiple fronts. Initially, the emergence of Amazon.com gave consumers less of a reason to do in-person shopping for general merchandise. Then the company got into the prescription game with its 2018 acquisition of PillPack and the 2020 launching of Amazon Pharmacy and an Amazon Prime prescription discount benefit. And then, just a few months ago, Business Insider reported that Amazon was looking to create physical pharmacies. Whether that comes to fruition — and what it would look like — remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: Amazon will continue to be a thorn in the side and strain the bottom line of retail pharmacies.
