The global cold form blister packaging market size is expected to reach USD 6.46 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 6.7% from 2023 to 2030. This market growth is attributed to its application in various industries such as healthcare, electronics and semiconductors, consumer products, food and confectionery, and others.
The cold-form blister packaging solution production process is performed on cold-forming foil and adopts a technique that eliminates the need for heat applications during the packaging process. With this process, the cold-forming foils or laminate sheets containing aluminum material are subsequently shaped into the desired form through stamping using a blister machine.
These packaging solutions made of raw materials such as aluminum, polypropylene, oriented polyamide, and Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) are developed by creating a protective blister or cavity to hold individual products and are widely used in the healthcare, electronics, consumer products, and other industries in to pack generic drugs, batteries, soap bars, and others in a transparent packaging to allow consumers to see through the product and its information.
Asia Pacific is home to a significant portion of the global population, including densely populated countries such as India and China. The increased disposable income of the middle-class population and rising healthcare awareness among consumers across the region is contributing to the growth of the healthcare, consumer products, and electronics & semiconductors industry which further fuels the market growth for the cold-form blister packaging market.
The industry players are adopting several strategies including partnerships, expansions, mergers & acquisitions, joint ventures, and partnership agreements to increase the customer base and individual market share. For instance, in December 2022, Amcor plc announced an expansion in its global footprint by launching an additional manufacturing facility in China to meet the growing cold form blister packaging solutions demand across the Asia Pacific region.
