Vacuum Skin Packaging Market Size is valued at USD 23.21 Bn in 2022 and is predicted to reach USD 33.63 Bn by the year 2031 at a 4.3% CAGR during the forecast period for 2023-2031.
Key Industry Insights & Findings from the Report:
- A key factor is the growing consumer desire for packaged fresh food items that are ready to eat. Food packaging that prolongs shelf life and maintains food quality and flavor is becoming more and more popular with consumers.
- Innovations in packaging technology, such as the development of new materials and vacuum-absorbing technologies, are enhancing the efficiency and appeal of VSP.
- Asia Pacific region dominated the market as well as accounted for a global revenue share in 2023.
Vacuum skin packaging consists of a tray and a high-barrier film. When a package is vacuum sealed, any surplus air or moisture is sucked out before it is sealed. When applied to a product, the vacuum skin packaging film adheres to it like a second skin. The vacuum skin packaging keeps the goods fresh for a longer period by removing excess moisture. The need for vacuum skin packaging is predicted to rise in the coming years as a result of its many advantages, including its ability to prevent product spoilage, significantly enhance product presentation, result in minimal product loss, and maximize package efficiency. The rising need for food preservation methods, such as vacuum skin packaging, will likely drive the industry forward rapidly in the next years.
Furthermore, vacuum skin packaging provides an extra layer of protection compared to standard packaging methods, leading to its steady development in popularity. Market growth opportunities for vacuum skin packaging generated from renewable and natural sources have increased as society shifts toward more eco-friendly and sustainable materials. Over the course of the predicted time frame, the market should expand because of factors such as technological innovation, urbanization, industrialization, infrastructure development, and rising per capita income.
However, vacuum skin packaging is expected to slow down in the foreseen period due to the high cost of the machines and equipment used in the process and the rising availability of alternatives, such as blister packaging and shrink barrier packaging. The vacuum skin packaging business has benefited from the COVID-19 epidemic as the need for secure and dependable food and consumer goods packaging has increased significantly.
During the COVID-19 epidemic, consumers' trust in making purchases is most directly affected by packaging options and methods. As a result, a growing number of businesses are adopting vacuum skin packaging. The anticipated increase in demand for vacuum skin packaged products, particularly in the commercial sector, during the COVID-19 crisis is one of the main motives projected to fuel the growth of the vacuum skin packaging market.

Market Segmentation:
The vacuum skin packaging market includes product type, material type and application. As per the product type, the market is segmented into VSP films, trays & films. The market is segmented by material type into polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, and others. The application segment consists of meat, poultry, seafood, dairy products, ready meals, and others.
Based On The Material Type, The Polyethylene Vacuum Skin Packaging Market Segment Is Accounted As A Major Contributor To The Vacuum Skin Packaging Market.
The polyethylene category is expected to hold a major global market share. Polyethylene's popularity is growing as a result of these desirable properties: low processing cost, robust elasticity, excellent clarity, improved sealability, high elongation, and high elongation. Composite films, including high-temperature cooking bags, tensile polypropylene, and others, often use polyethylene as the inner foundation material. Polyethylene is frequently utilized in producing zip lock bags, stretch films, and stock poly bags, among others, and is commonly regarded as a good material for food packaging. This is anticipated to boost its acceptance and, consequently, this market's revenue.
The Meat Segment To Witness Growth At A Rapid Rate.
The meat segment is projected to grow rapidly in the global vacuum skin packaging market due to increased interest in extending the storage life of meat from poultry and multiple technological developments (including the advent of vacuum skin packing). Rapid urbanization, a growing population, and rising disposable expenditures, particularly in some developing nations, have made poultry the fastest-growing category, especially in countries like China, the US, Germany, the UK, and India.
In The Region, The Asia Pacific Vacuum Skin Packaging Market Holds A Significant Revenue Share.
The Asia Pacific vacuum skin packaging market is expected to record the maximum market share in revenue in the near future. It can be attributed to rising demand for packaged foods and the expansion of the pharmaceutical industry, two of the main factors fueling the expansion of the vacuum skin packaging market in this region. Environmental worries and sustainable development programs are being addressed alongside a burgeoning research and development sector in technology.
In addition, Europe is estimated to grow rapidly in the global vacuum skin packaging market because customers' disposable income has increased, and as a result, they are purchasing higher-grade meat, seafood, and poultry. Market expansion in this area will also be helped by rising consumer demand for protein-rich diets.
Recent Developments:
- In September 2022, Graphic Packaging International announced its investment strategy for the G. Mondini Trave 350 tray sealer to grow its PaperSeal line of fibre-based trays in the US and Canada.
