[185 Pages Report] The Molded Pulp Packaging Market size was estimated at USD 2.63 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 2.80 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 6.48% to reach USD 4.08 billion by 2030.
Molded pulp packaging uses water and fibrous materials such as recycled paper, natural fibers, or cardboard offcuts, making it recyclable, biodegradable, and compostable. The surging need for eco-friendly and sustainable packaging solutions with enhanced protection and handling convenience across various end-user industries, including the automotive and consumer electronics industry, is boosting the scope of molded pulp packaging.

The emergence of bio-based coating materials to improve molded pulp packaging and favorable government initiatives to reduce the use of plastic packaging to promote eco-friendly packaging are creating lucrative opportunities for molded pulp packaging.
