North America Packaging Machinery Market Outlook, 2027

Packaging is the art and technology of covering and protecting various products for distribution, storage, and usage. In addition to that, packaging refers to the process of designing, evaluating, and producing packages. The important factor for the packaging is that it protects the product from harm, leakage, dust, pollution, contamination, etc. Throughout this whole packaging process, diverse machinery is an essential part of the industry. The term packaging machinery refers to a wide-ranging mixture of machines, including many industries. There are thousands of packaging machines, from larger scale to smaller. These packaging machines can fill liquids, wrap products, weigh products, and protect them while transporting and storing them. North America is considered the world’s largest consumer of packaging. Also, the region is characterized by packaging giants such as International Paper, Tetrapak, Reynolds Group, Ball Corporation, and Ownes-Illinois. Growing demand for highly automated and integrated machines, coupled with favorable packaging and labeling regulations, is anticipated to propel the market's growth. Rising demand for cosmetics, increased sales of entertainment equipment, increased consumption of single-use packaging, an increase in good exports, and rapid urbanization would also drive market growth across the region. The Association for packaging and processing technologies (PMMI) present in the North American region represents more than 950 North American manufacturers and suppliers of packaging equipment and components.

According to the research report "North America Packaging Machinery Market Outlook, 2027," published by Bonafide Research, the packaging machinery market is anticipated to grow at a 4.12% CAGR for 2022–2027. The packaging machinery market in North America is highly competitive and consists of numerous established key players who focus on expanding their geographical reach across the region. These key players are consistently innovating with their products and launching them to meet the demand, which is likely to support the growth of the North American market. The North American packaging machinery market is segmented into three prominent countries, including the United States of America, Canada, and Mexico. Among these countries, the USA is estimated to acquire more than half of the market share during the forecast period.

The USA is one of the fastest-growing packaging markets across the North American region. Historically, the United States has been among the early adopters of this technology and industry. Furthermore, the country has a strong export base of packaging machinery, which has actively contributed to the market's growth. Also, the current shift towards Industry 4.0 is driving the adoption of technologies such as automation, AI, and IoT in the manufacturing sector. Robotics has also been penetrating the packaging machinery market across the country, which is expected to propel higher market growth during the forecast period. On the other hand, e-commerce has been a growingly important factor in the industry. There is a trend for e-commerce packaging in the USA to use more pouches, easily packable trays, and less glass. Recently, the US government has announced several initiatives to strengthen the manufacturing sectors including over USD 300 billion in research and development and enhanced technology for the packaging machinery industry.

According to the report, North America's packaging machinery market is segmented into seven diverse machine types, including filling machines, labeling machines, form-fill-seal machines, cartooning machines, palletizing machines, wrapping machines, and bottling line machines. Among these machine types, the form-fill-seal machine segment is projected to acquire more than 40% of the market share in the North American market. Owing to the wide range and volume of products that can be packed with this technology, the form-fill-seal machine type is projected to acquire significant market growth by the upcoming time frame. On the other hand, the bottling line machine type segment is estimated to be the fastest-growing segment in the North American packaging equipment market. Further, as demand for packaging machinery grows, so do the requirements of end-users, including food and beverage manufacturers. These two end-users occupy more than half of the market share in the North American market. Due to the increasing demand for packed food with sustainable packaging across the region, this segment is forecasted to witness increasing growth during the forecast period.
