Dublin, April 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “Plastics for Healthcare Packaging” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
Plastics are one of the major raw materials used in the pharmaceutical and medical industries. Several medical packaging products are derived from plastic resins, such as polyethylene, polypropylene and polyvinyl chloride. Desirable properties of plastics/polymers, such as their light weight, durability, transparency and competitive cost, support plastic demand in the healthcare packaging industry. Innovation and advancement in plastics packaging support medical products by protecting them from external damage and guarding against contamination. Owing to these factors, plastics have become an integral part of the healthcare industry and will continue to be so in the coming years.
The growth of the market for plastics for healthcare packaging is impacted by several factors such as increased use of disposable products, increased government spending on the healthcare sector, increasing influence of hospital and healthcare-related purchasing, and shift to contract packaging.
Furthermore, the demand for packaging products is expected to grow due to an emphasis on child-resistant/senior-friendly and tamper-evident packaging, higher volumes of turn/twist caps, increases in unit-dose packaging and an increase in injectable therapies.
Growing demand for pharmaceuticals and the significant penetration of retail sales of pharmaceuticals and drugs in developing regions are expected to enhance market growth. Pharmaceutical packaging products are primarily utilized for storing and protecting solid, liquid and semisolid forms of various drug formulations, such as tablets, capsules, syrups and topical drugs. The growing prevalence of cancer or chronic diseases owing to changing lifestyles, improper eating habits and disruption of sleep cycles has led to an increased need for medications.
