Consumers are increasingly making decisions based on their eco-conscious values. As a result, brands need to place an increased emphasis on eco-conscious packaging that appeals to consumers’ lifestyles if they want to see their brand succeed. As per Future Market Insights (FMI) study on the global packaging industry, due to the rise in plastic waste caused by packaging, market players around the world are now focusing on biodegradable and recyclable packaging material.

According to a recent survey of 80,000 people worldwide, 52% of consumers want packaging that is 100% recycled and 46% wish to see packaging that is biodegradable. These numbers highlight the need to consider what truly sustainable packaging means.

It’s not surprising, then, that there continues to be an influx of alternative packaging making its way into the mainstream and onto our shelves. Following are some key trends making waves in the sustainable packaging world.
