Market Growth Factors
Merger and acquisition (M&A) activities in China increasingly drive the market for luxury packaging. Larger-sized companies may acquire smaller creative packaging companies to increase their manufacturing capabilities, improve their supply chain management, increase their market presence, and improve their effective use of technologies and designs. In January 2024, Fedrigoni Group acquired Arjowiggins HKK3 Limited to strengthen its presence in Asia and expand its luxury packaging portfolio.
As consumers have increasingly demanded luxury brands engage in environmental and sustainability issues, brands have focused on reducing packaging waste, using sustainable materials and using both recyclable and biodegradable materials in their packaging design. As of February 2023, Mars Wrigley China has adopted 100% recycled PET (rPET) packaging to further support its circular economy goals under its sustainable development initiative for the Cui Xiang Mi chocolate brand.
The expansion of e-commerce is also driving luxury product packaging, as products sold online require packaging that ensures protection during transit and heightens the excitement of opening the packaging. The e-commerce market is projected to reach a value of US$ 183.8 Trillion by 2032, after growing at a CAGR of 27.16% during the forecast period 2023-2032 and valued at US$ 21.1 Trillion in 2023. Attractive, durable luxury packaging improves consumer satisfaction, increasing the value of the brand in influencer marketing and social media.
