The Global Packaging Testing Market Size is valued at 14.58 billion in 2022 and is predicted to reach 38.98 billion by the year 2031 at a 11.72% CAGR during the forecast period for 2023-2031.
The increasing demand for safe commodities with extended lifespans is expected to drive the packaging testing market demand in the coming years. More product recalls due to severe regulatory enforcement and increased knowledge about the improper use of recycled substances will propel the package testing sector forward.
Furthermore, the rapid expansion of the FMCG sector and the significant demand for durable goods are expected to open new opportunities for the package testing industry over the projection period. Trade openness, developments in infrastructure improvements and modern communications, and the growth of transnational firms in the retail food industry have all contributed to a rise in global commerce. This increased foreign trade in perishable goods such as dairy, fruits, and vegetables. This heightened the need for package inspections, as defective products raise prices for shops and producers while increasing customer dissatisfaction.
Packaging testing needs are driven by the increased prevalence of packed food and beverages worldwide and the rising consumption of processed foods. Additionally, the market is fueled by a significant increase in online selling of foodstuffs and other commodities via purchasing platforms, particularly for good product movement as products transit through more advanced distribution systems.
The packaging testing market is segmented based on type, material, technology and end user. Based on type, market is segmented as physical, chemical and microbiology. The market is segmented as glass, plastic, paper and paperboard, metal, and others based on material. By technology, the market is segmented into physical test methods, spectroscopy and photometric-based, chromatography-based, and others. By end user, the packaging testing market is segmented into food and beverage, agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, personal care, and others.
The food & beverages category will hold a major share of the global packaging testing market in 2022. Intelligent packaging, active, smart packaging, and modified atmosphere packaging are replacing old approaches, driving the need to evaluate these items effectively. Because items are delivered to clients in packed form, their safety is a major concern; any poisonous or dangerous contaminant could affect the product. Contaminants can significantly reduce product quality, emphasizing the need for package testing in the market. This emphasis has resulted in a strong demand for effective package testing in the package testing sector.
The plastic segment is projected to grow rapidly in the global packaging testing market. Because of the expense ratio and specially made for distinction, plastic material is favored in the worldwide container business over other material types such as glass, metal, and paper & paperboard. Plastic packaging is becoming more popular due to its positive qualities, such as low cost, lightweight, corrosion resistance, and an effective wall to water, oxygen, and nitrous oxide. Stretch plastic packaging is in demand due to its high product-to-package ratio, material efficiency, lower expenses for shipping, storage period extension, less waste to landfill, and good life cycle metrics.
The North America packaging testing market is expected to record the highest market share in revenue soon. The massive consumption of consumer items and food products in nations such as Canada and the United States is driving the growth of the packaging testing business in North America over the anticipated timeframe. Furthermore, the sub-large continent's usage of canned food has generated significant demand for metal package testing, boosting the economic environment in the sub-continent.
In addition, Asia Pacific is projected to grow rapidly in the global Packaging Testing market. Tight government regulations governing product packaging have resulted in the widespread acceptance of packaging testing, and this will influence market patterns in the region.

InsightAce Analytic follows a standard and comprehensive market research methodology focused on offering the most accurate and precise market insights. The methods followed for all our market research studies include three significant steps – primary research, secondary research, and data modeling and analysis - to derive the current market size and forecast it over the forecast period. In this study, these three steps were used iteratively to generate valid data points (minimum deviation), which were cross-validated through multiple approaches mentioned below in the data modeling section.
Through secondary research methods, information on the market under study, its peer, and the parent market was collected. This information was then entered into data models. The resulted data points and insights were then validated by primary participants.
Based on additional insights from these primary participants, more directional efforts were put into doing secondary research and optimize data models. This process was repeated till all data models used in the study produced similar results (with minimum deviation). This way, this iterative process was able to generate the most accurate market numbers and qualitative insights.
Secondary research
The secondary research sources that are typically mentioned to include, but are not limited to:
The paid sources for secondary research like Factiva, OneSource, Hoovers, and Statista
Primary Research:
