The global packaging market size during the COVID-19 pandemic is projected to grow from USD 909.2 billion in 2019 to USD 1,012.6 billion by 2021.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, states and local municipalities are practicing extreme caution to avoid the spread of the coronavirus. Healthcare products, such as syringes, vials, and cartridges, are required on a large scale amidst this pandemic to fulfill the increasing global demand.

The plastic packaging segment is projected to lead the market during the forecast period.

Based on material type, plastic is projected to lead the packaging market during the forecast period. Plastic is described to be very necessary, and several measures are being taken to either temporarily roll back single-use plastic bag bans or stop the implementation of state-wide ban laws. Since the demand from many end-use industries is growing, the use of plastic packaging will also see a significant rise during this crisis.

APAC is projected to be the largest packaging market during the forecast period.

The growth in APAC is fueled by the easy availability of packaging raw materials such as plastic, fiber, and glass and the presence of manufacturing facilities of most of the packaging companies.
