Market trends: Sustainable petfood packaging

The US demand for petfood packaging is expected to rise 4.8% annually to US$2.5 billion in 2018, according to Ohio-based market research firm The Freedonia Group Inc. That demand is being driven by the need for more advanced packaging—higher-value, more sophisticated packaging that meets the expectations of an ever-growing market overall and the premium petfood market in particular. As consumers become increasingly involved in their pets’ well-being, and become more educated in where their pet products are coming from, specific packaging issues come to light. One of those issues is sustainability.
