The global form-fill-seal equipment market size reached US$ 11.8 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 15.6 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8% during 2022-2028.

Form-fill-seal (FFS) equipment relies on automated computer-operated technology for producing flexible to rigid packages and minimizing the chances of contamination during the manufacturing process. It involves low operational costs and offers readable bar codes and other product information using online film printing. Consequently, it is extensively utilized in the packaging of beverages, granulates, extruded snack food, and spices and seasonings in the food and beverage (F&B) industry. It is also used while manufacturing ointments, syrup, tablets, sutures, lancets, syringes, bandages, gauze pads, test strips and denture adhesive strips. Nowadays, manufacturers are adopting advanced computer interfaces and control networks to improve the speed and versatility of FFS equipment.

The market is presently witnessing significant growth on account of the expanding applications of FFS equipment in various end use industries. For instance, it is employed in the personal care and cosmetics industries for packing gels, creams, razors, towelettes, shampoos, conditioners and nail polish remover pads. It is also used in the manufacturing of ink, pens, tobacco, chemicals, insect repellent, household cleaners, fertilizers, etc. Apart from this, consumer inclination towards ready-to-eat (RTE) food products is increasing the consumption of extruded snack food around the world. This, along with the rising utilization of packaged products due to the growing e-commerce sector, is bolstering the market growth. Furthermore, the escalating demand for catheters, in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) kits, surgical gloves and intravenous (IV) infusion bottles to diagnose and treat the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) patients is influencing the market positively.
