By 2010, the global packaging market had been fully recovered. In 2012, the global processing and packaging machinery trade volume hit a new record, reached 33 billion euros in 2011 year-on-year growth of 8%. in the field of mechanical engineering, there is hardly any other branch of industry development trend so good.
Over the years, Germany and Italy have remained the world’s largest exporter of processing and packaging machinery. In 2012, both countries accounted for 22% of the world’s total trade, ahead of the United States, Holland and China, with a share of between 5% and 7%.
In 2012, the world’s largest sales market in Europe once again the throne of European countries: processing and packaging machinery imports accounted for the global total exports of 43%. a few years ago, the number from 55% to 60%. These data reflect the changing trend of the market: emerging market countries and developing countries, which are in the period of industrial modernization, have gradually become the strong driving force for pushing market growth. This trend is accelerating demand for machinery. At present, the Asian market has jumped to Europe as the world’s second largest sales market, in 2012 the market share of 22%., in addition, Latin America (10%) and Africa (8%) and other regions of the market share also showed an increase.

Demand for modern packaging continues to grow
In modern society, it’s hard to imagine what a product without packaging would be like. Thus, the demand for innovative packaging has global characteristics. Packaging industry is an important force to support international economic development. According to estimates, the global packaging trade in 2012 exceeded 500 billion euros.
In 2013, more than 4 trillion and 100 billion packages were sold worldwide, according to a British market research firm, Rui rui. The Asian market share as high as 45%, to become the world’s largest market, followed by Europe and North America, market share was 27% and 13%. Chinese economies and two India booming further pushing Asian packaging sales rose.
The global food industry is the largest consumer market for packaging materials. Its packaging consumption accounts for 45% of the global packaging market, and the beverage industry accounts for 26%.
Plastic is the most commonly used packaging material in the world: about 70% of all packaging materials are made of plastic, of which the soft packing accounts for the highest, up to 47%, and this figure is still rising. At present, more and more products are packaged using various types of flexible packaging materials, such as packaging bags, self supporting bags, films and so on. The food industry is a major source of demand for flexible packaging materials.
On the other hand, rigid plastic packaging accounts for 21%. of total packaging consumption. Over the years, PET plastic has been the preferred packaging material for the global beverage industry, and its usage is on the rise. In particular, water and carbonated drinks are still filled with PET plastic bottles. As nearly 3/4 of the world’s bottled water is filled with PET plastic bottles, the steady increase in water consumption has become an important driver of PET plastic packaging applications.
Most alcoholic beverages led by beer are filled with glass bottles. Of all glass packaging materials, 64% are for alcoholic beverages, 21% for soft drinks, and 16% for food. As the global beer consumption continues to grow at a disproportionate rate in recent years, the demand for glass packaging materials in the world will continue to decline in the coming years. In the soft drinks market, glass packaging materials are increasingly being replaced by PET plastic products.
At present, the carton packing market is becoming more and more competitive all over the world. Especially in the primary packaging area, cartons are gradually being replaced by more flexible plastic flexible packages.
Nearly 90% of all metal packaging used in the food and beverage industry, of which nearly 70% for beverage cans, 17% for canned food. Currently, most beer and carbonated drinks are canned.
In the next few years, demand for beer and carbonated drinks will only grow slightly. Between 2013 and 2017, the average annual growth rate of canned drinks was only 2%., according to market researchers
